As I sit here, reminiscing about the past four years, I am filled with a whirlwind of emotions, most of all, gratitude for all the precious memories we’ve created. Last month we celebrated my little boy Reyansh’s Fourth birthday— a milestone that not only marks his growth but Mine too. It also serves as a reminder of the challenges and joys that motherhood has brought into my life. It has been an incredible rollercoaster ride.

From the moment my little one was placed in my arms, life has changed entirely.  The early days were a whirlwind of sleepless nights, nappy changes, and constant feedings. Adjusting to the demands of motherhood was a huge challenge, but every smile, coo, and milestone he achieved made it all worthwhile.

First few weeks of motherhood. Such a mix of everything – Sleepless & confused, happy & frustrated…

Motherhood often demands an intricate balancing act—juggling household responsibilities, career aspirations, and personal well-being, all while tending to the needs of a little baby. There are days when exhaustion threatens to consume me, and I question my ability to keep up with it all. However, over time, I realised that self-care is not a luxury but a necessity, and finding moments to rejuvenate and pursue my passions is what makes me a better person & mother.  It truly takes a community to raise a child, and I’m grateful for the support we’ve received.

Celebrating Four!

Watching my child grow and reach developmental milestones has been awe-inspiring. From the first steps to the first words, from the endless curiosity that fuels his learning to his attempts at being independent, learning new languages and communicating so well with everyone… I’ve marvelled at his growth and development, and it has filled my heart with immense pride and joy. Celebrating his fourth birthday is a testament to his growth, resilience, and the beautiful individual he is becoming.

Motherhood has taught me the true meaning of unconditional Love. Through the ups and downs, the challenges and triumphs, my love for my child remains unwavering. It is a love that embraces imperfections and celebrates all of his uniqueness.  In the midst of the difficulties, the tantrums and stubbornness, motherhood is an extraordinary blessing. The moments of pure joy, the tight hugs, unexpected kisses, his caring nature and his sweet laughter reminds me of the immense privilege it is to guide and witness the growth of a beautiful soul.

Celebrating my son’s Birthday is about celebrating him & a testament to the incredible journey of motherhood. It has challenged me, stretched me, and transformed me in ways I could never have imagined. As we celebrate this milestone, I am filled with gratitude for the privilege of being his mother and the boundless love that continues to fuel this extraordinary journey.

Here’s to many many more years of growth, love, and unforgettable moments with my precious child.
