Yesterday the whole day was pretty uneventful but tiring nevertheless...who knew the night would be so dramatic!!! HD was on tour the whole week. it was pretty much the two of us until i put R to bed...Now he is a light sleeper i call it 'dog sleep', wakes up at the slightest unfamiliar sound! Anyways i dozed off singing baaa baaa black sheep to him, the bedroom door was closed and the TV was on coz i feel it gets really quiet once R is asleep and i dont like that especially when HD is not around...somehow the house feels unusually empty....so with the TV on, the bedroom door closed and the main door locked I went into a deep lumber!!!In the mean time at around 10:30 pm ie a good one hour after i slept (am guessing) HD arrived...and as fate would have it he didnt have the duplicate key which he always carries with him...he rang the door bell ...nothing...again he rang ...waited for a while ...nothing..... rang number of times nothing!! called my number(later i saw six missed calls) the phone was on the kitchen counter ...so no reply there!...then he called the land line number which is in the other bed room....nothing...he was freaking out when he started banging the door....well i slept through!!By this time neighbors started to come out(how embarassing!!!!) one annoyed neighbor even asked HD to keep it down actually said 'Do not disturb' i mean cummon!!!how insensitive is that!!!suppose we had fallen into real trouble then what? would he still say do not disturb!!!!!I wonder whatever happened to friendly neighbors..they are your first help etc etc ? Anyways HD was pretty much panicking by then...was frantically trying to figure out what could have gone wrong?..are we safe?...and there is no backdoor to these apartments so how he could enter....In the meantime i thought i heard the door bell...then some far away phone ringing, my mind said wait a min is it my door bell?!!thats when my eyes snapped open and yeah i ran to open the door...and HD rushed in screaming his head off...well naturally...
In all this drama i saw my lill one walking out of the bedroom quizzically looking at the dad.....the screaming came to an abrupt stop and HD felt terrible that after 5 days R has to see him like this...so started another round of uknowat...sigh
Today Morning R completely got glued to his dad...went even in the bath with him so naturally when HD left he cried real hard(my poor baby:( and he complained and cribbed and was cranky almost the whole day!To make things worse for this poor mommy he just refused to eat....the whole schedule went haywire today. He took his afternoon nap at 4 pm ie almost his usual wake up time...woke up at 6 pm!! which is his usual play time!!so we had to fore-go the park time..instead since he didn't have his lunch well i decided to cook soup with some noodles for him....to my delight he loved the noodles and eagerly tried to help himself with the spoon!!!never mind he didn't have too much of the actual soup nor did he use the spoon for long.. it was a delight to watch him finish his first bowl of soupy noodles!!!
The dinner time was another ordeal! On top of that HD called to say it was going to be late again...i tried my best to feed him but he refused...he actually looked ready for bed so we finished our bed time chores and had just settled in bed when a wall lizard(one would find atleast one in all Indian homes) called tic-tic-tic....and i bit my tongue lest i swore!!!! You see, lill R is super scared of these creatures and he calls them tictic...one call he stops at whatever he is doing...so the same applied for going off to sleep!!!Anyways now that he comprehends most of what i say I amm trying to put in his lill head that the lizard is a petty tiny creature in front of my strong R, Mumma and R together will scare the tictic off...he kept saying those words but guess it was still very hard for him to believe... so my baby clung on to me real tight in fact i was quite surprized how hard he can hold on....slowly drifted into dreamland while clinging on to my forarm real tight!!!!!loved the feeling.. mother's love chemical was over flowing i am sure:)))
Sweet dreams my angel xoxoxoxo
