Good Luck

A little over a week ago, I was doing some last minute packing for the hospital. Trip to bring home the baby boy Umber. Inside my suitcase I packed along with other things, a few new clothes for the baby.

This hospital visit was to be unusual. Due to the latest pandemic of corona virus covid-19, hospital's visitation policy had changed and no visitors were allowed in the hospital anymore. No one under age of 16 could be inside the hospital. And for labour a and delivery, only 1 support person could be admitted, and that person could not leave the hospital for the duration of the patient's stay. This meant little miss Haana couldn't be at the hospital or see the baby till we got back home.

Little miss Haana was to go stay at her best friend Rushil's place with the ever so doting Ranjeeta aunty and Sai uncle. She was bummed about not seeing Umber at the hospital, but super stoked about spending time at Rushils'. Schools are closed due to covid-19, which translated into a little bit of homework and a whole lot of play in her future!

Meanwhile, I noticed little miss Haana had been fluttering around my suitcase and acting all mysterious. Finally I figured out why. She kept, hidden in my and Umber's clothes, good luck notes with virtual hugs for me, since she wouldn't be there herself. I wasn't supposed to discover the notes until I was at the hospital, but when I saw it, I instantly melted! My sweet girl is so very sweet!!

Evils of Procrastination

Life's lesson# 89 (would've been an earlier lesson if I had remembered to take note of it earlier!): Evils of Procrastination.

I haven't written about the little girl in awhile ( I have excuses - genuine ones - we were travelling and took turns falling sick while  travelling) and as I turned to write, I saw this entry I was meaning to write some time back, but didn't. Probably hoping to finish later. Only problem is- I don't remember what it was I was just about to say:

"Little Haana has been sick lately. Virus with cough and cold. But even then..."


Maybe I should take to suspense or sequel writing. But mostly refer to life's lesson# 89. And I hope I remember what the Girl was up to!
