I love Dr. Seuss and last night, as I was enjoying a Mother’s Day game of UNO with my kids, I spotted this book on their shelf & pulled it out. It brought back fond memories of when they were younger (they’re 17, 13 & 10 now) and the fun of rhyme & alliteration and my theatrics and voice modulation.
At the end of it all, it was my 13 yr old who lay on my arm as I read the book to her, far away from Christmastime – in the Bangalore May heat – and cuddled her as she listened in rapt attention just like when she was a little toddler.
It was an unplanned Mother’s Day celebration. Nothing more to add, just this. And it’s OK that it isn’t technically a book review!
Human being... Woman... Unapologetically Me.... Limited Edition....
99% angel and I love what the sizzling 1% is all about...
Taking each day as it comes - with all it's ups, downs, curve-balls and low blows.... and then, living that life to the fullest... for there is no shame is coming out of the fires of hell, tempered by the flames, strengthened by faith and still mortal enough to melt at times. Ready to dust myself and walk again, because every step I take, would only take me further.
I wear my attitude along with heart on my sleeve and have a strong sense of purposeful living. I'm not afraid to stand up & speak up fiercely for what I believe in. I truly believe that life is to be fully lived and the struggles in life are akin to the metamorphic changes in nature - all helping us to evolve into the best version of ourselves.
