BEING BUSY IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT
It feels funny when I look back at myself and think that I used to think that I was busy. Now I think, when I was single I never understood what busy really meant ,the concept we have while being single is so different than now in life. When we have kids then starts real drama , being couple its always 50 -50 ,so busy is not a real thing. Story changes slowly when kids comes to the scene . 1st kid equals no experience which increases stress and process is so new that we take time and become busy.
I really respect people who has their second kid in two to three years gap from the first one . Salute to them . Personally I could not think of that ,still now m scared of that gap . Keep begging for help from every single soul in this earth is a nightmare . its an obligation to everyone other than husband to ask for help . somehow we scape though 7 years with my lovely little princess and time spend with her made me brave .As saying goes practice makes you perfect , also it goes other way also. Practice makes you less busy .With my increasing courage We decided to have our second baby but surprisingly we were not that busy . We actually did good.
Life changes ,maybe I should say changes makes you lifeful. Now as we all know God is the most humorous person . When life is its busiest we discovered I am pregnant with my third one . Having kid is always a blessing , but it came with its own challenges .Here starts the crazy busy journey .Pregnancy was a full turmoil as my sickness and Covid time both together. New place ,new pregnancy both together . Busy but still manageable.
Next is the new chapter of my life . My beautiful princess born. All pain ,all sickness vanishes just looking at her face the very first time . Everything felt worth of it . Only kids can make you feel like this . its a surreal feeling which words can ‘t describe .After long fight in hospital with life and death. Finally, I came home , still saga of sickness continues . Here comes my gratitude to people who kept me in prayer and who came physically to help me . This is the pregnancy where my mum in law was not there otherwise my other two pregnancy her support was rock solid and she was the reason we were not so busy .Every time almost an year of support without any expectation, only mum can do . She is an wonderful person ,I am blessed to have her my in my life .I wish I can be that mum in law when my time comes .Future will tell that as son is just 5 years old. So coming back to gratitude, I am grateful to my bro in law and sis in law who came to help me despite having a small kid themselves. My biggest gratitude goes to my friend who flew 7 hours with two kids and spend five days with me and sorted me totally as I shifted house a week before giving birth. She proved a friend in need is a friend indeed . I am happy to say thank you my friend as you know I will not able to say face to face.
Coming back to being busy, yes, here starts the busy life after everyone goes back. My little one is fifteen months now, I really do not know how many days over I slept properly. Daily routine can’t explain in words . Here it goes wake up ,drop kids , before make lunch box .come back tiny ones duty’s, feed ,sleep ,play ,nappy change , and the saga continues . Make ,lunch , give shower , make them study ,dinner .my work ,my sleep ,my care , my gym which goes in between and major thing gets deprived is mostly sleep .
I should not say I at all, as hubby is on the same boat ,once he is home ,he is into continuing saga of feeding ,nappy change ,putting kids to sleep. His sleeping cycle also equally deprived…which is crazy busy .Best part of it is small one has very different schedule than other two , which makes the whole schedule erratic .I would have never known what really busy means if I had not had the third one . Hope practising being busy will make me perfect in busy ..lets finish with this hope .
