Today

Years before on this same day, a loving couple was overwhelmed with joy holding their little one for the first time in life. That little one is now 4 times taller and 25 times heavier.

Yes, its my birthday..The very day I so comfortably curled up in my mom's warmth for the first time, the day I became the princess in my dad's life. I can clearly see it in my mind's eye now, the joy they both shared then. Strangely, I have never imagined this scenario ever before. Even the way I see my parents changed drastically after I became a mother. My daughter taught me what it takes to be a parent. I changed a lot when my daughter came into my life and she changed me even more when she left me. The void can never be filled.

I know my birthdays will never be the same again. And if I remember it correctly, this is my first birthday that I did not remember. Did not remember until my husband woke me up in the morning with a tender kiss and a birthday gift. Took me few seconds to realize it. Its very unusual of him to give me gifts. I know he is doing the unusual to make me happy. And yes, am happy I have people around trying to make me happy. Their love is what keeps me going.

Thanks for the wishes and prayers..!!FB did a good job of making most of you all think about my existance.. :)
