The month gone by...January love :)

-

I love winters. I love January. I love everything that comes with it - the chilly weather, sweaters, lounging in cosy quilts, winter sun, oranges, loads of veggies, flowers... just everything. I don't know why, but thinking of winters brings about a very special feeling... childhood memories of eating oranges sitting in our garden under the sun, watching TV and sipping chai under the cosy quilt... pure nostalgia :)

Also the fact that January is my birth month adds to its charm. It always gave me a special kind of joy knowing that nobody in the family had any other event in January. No birthdays, no anniversaries, nothing except my birthday, and thats what made it all the more special :) (quite kiddish, yes!)

This year I got the best birthday gift... my little niece was born just a few days before my birthday and undoubtedly its the best gift anyone can get. She is such an angel and also a January baby.. that makes me love this month even more. Sooo looking forward to having 'We love January' talks with her when she grows up. (yeah, call me kiddish again!)


How could I forget, my 6 year old also gave me a wonderful present. His school's sports day was on my birthday and in the morning he promised me that he would give me the best birthday gift... and he did keep his promise :) He won a gold medal and it was such a proud moment seeing him stand on the podium and receive the medal. How these little things makes us parents proud!

This month has come to an end and its been such a wonderful January.. Looking forward to the rest of 2017.

    Hey there - so are you a Capricorn? I like Januray too - there's something about the beginning of a year that fills me with hope for good things.

Of late I’ve been inspired by blogs on home décor/crafts etc and have been really enjoying reading and seeing what people have been posting. Heres something I did last weekend and these blogs have inspired me to post my stuff too. Hope it interests at least some people!! I had a few of my paintings lying in my house..never bothered to get them framed.. Got them framed finally last week and now they are up on our walls. Feels nice to show off some of my own work (talk of modesty!) Have put these up on our living room walls..just near the entrance.. Heres a closer look.. Another wall...We have a 7 month old baby who keeps on crawling in the entire house so we've decided to get minimum furnitures right now and give him enough space for all his activities.. heres our floor seating arrangement and another one of my paintings up on the wall.. closer look... i also tried my hand at making origami lotus.. didn't have the right color papers..but tried to make them a...

happy anniversary

We celebrated our 4th anniversary yesterday :) To some it may seem a very short time together and to some it may seem a long long time..all I can say is that I really don’t know where the years went.. We had a few ups and downs (like every family I guess!) but the ride was quite enjoyable.. Had read this a lot of times earlier and came across this again today while surfing...this time it goes for my husband (without sounding mushy!) " He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry. He’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him wh...
