Work and baby

Posted on April 23, 2009 by Sonali

What do people mean when they say”I was able to achieve the perfect work life balance”? I am still to discover it…..I am so tired by the time I reach home that i don’t have the energy to play with Yash. I do try and spend time as much as i can but it is hard…so al those mothers who say, It is easy, must be super woman. I definitely am not. I am human, trying very hard to be a good mother and at the same time not letting go of my career that I love.

Anyways, those were just my thoughts….but kids grow so fast. It seems like yesterday that Yash was this white alien thing handed over to me while I was in this theatre being sewn.

And he is a cheeky 8 month old now ready to destroy everything that comes his way. We buy him fancy toys but all he wants to play with is an empty water bottle or the mats or the wires that lie around.

They say that you should get babies into the right habits but why? Why can’t we let them be babies and they will grow and develop habits? Yash still sleeps with me…it is not that he does not like sleeping in his cot, it is just that I like him sleeping with me….at leat he wants to now…that time is not far away when he will be”mum, go away, i want to sleep in my bed.” Kids grow so fast!!
