To you...with love..

एखाद्या छानश्या कॉमेंट ने हुरळून आनंदाने तुझ्या मिठीत येऊन मोठे मोठे डोळे करून तुला चिडवावेसे वाटते रे …..
रात्री परत एकदा 12 नंतर आइस क्रीम शोधत भटकावेसे वाटते…
कुठेतरी ऐकलेल्या तीनपाट गॉसिप बद्दल…कधी तू भेटतो आणि मी ते तुला सांगते…असे व्हावेसे वाटते…
कधीतरी एक अख्खा दिवस अगदी उठल्यापासून ते गप्पा मारत मारत झोपी जाण्यापर्यंत फक़त तुझ्याबरोबर आणि फक्ततुझ्याबरोबरच घालवावसा वाटतो…
वाचलेले छानशे पुस्तक तुझ्याबरोबर लगेच शेयर करावेसे वाटते....

तू सर्प्राइज़ म्हणून आणलेल्या एखाद्या ड्रेस वा गिफ्ट चे मैत्रिणिना फुगवून फुगवून कौतुक करावेसे वाटते…
सकाळी सकाळी वाफळ्ता आयता चहा देऊन तुझ्याकडून सासू समोर माझी स्तुती ऐकावीषी वाटते…
कधीतरी एखाद्वेळी तुझ्या मोबाइल वरुन माझ्या घरचा नंबर फिरवून बाबांशी तुला गप्पा मारताना ऐकवेसे वाटते…
रात्री भरपेट जेवण झाल्यावर खाली चक्कर मारायला जाऊन येऊ असे सांगून भन्नाट लॉंग ड्राइव वर जावेसे वाटते हल्ली कधीकधी...
एक दिवस संध्याकाळी 6 वाजता फोन करून …आता डाइरेक्ट थियेटर वरच भेट असा निरोप यावासा वाटतो..

FB च्या एका फोटो वर "कसली खास दिसतेयस..Love you Honey" अशी कॉमेंट तुझ्याकडून यावीशी वाटत आहे..

एक दिवस फक़त तुझा ..मी मुलाला सांभाळतो ..."जा जी ले अपनी जिंदगी मुग्धा" असे ऐकावेसे वाटते रे....

Picnic...

The word got so much happiness within it...

today it was my 3 yr old son's first picnic..school picnic.....well picnic is always with school isn't it?? with family, its a trip :)

The night before picnic..we hardly get any sleep..."need to get up early tomorrow".... what to wear..what to see..will dad allow camera...what will we have for snacks? n finally we sleep dreaming about the same...

next day...mom packs up some tasty food in tiffin...for just one day, she doesn't think much about "healthy food"...or may thinks in back of her mind and tries hard to get away from that thought.

I remember my school picnic days....early mornings...6-7 am bus timing... mom dad both coming to drop me at school..even though it was at 3 min walking distance from home and waving hands till the bus moved away 1-2 kms ...

I remember those small but very effective avomine tablets...a must for most of us.....

Remember and miss those stupid pranks we used to play..like throwing peels of oranges on the other car's top, making faces to passer by.....playing antakshari... eating n chatting non stop till teacher says "get down".

the siteseeing "WOWs" and then after boarding the bus..."yes teacher" attendance..

after long journey ( read 1- 2 hrs) seeing mom n dad's delighted faces saying "hushh...returned back safe n sound"...

you wont believe I even remember what i had as snack in my 3rd std picnic !!! It was a "nankatai" (my favourite) and an organge...well you wont even believe where the picnic was...it was to a garden just across our school building...I even remember whose hand i held while crossing the path !!!!

such were the beautiful days....picnic days...

We had picnics to "Pune darshan", "Mumbai darshan" ..across the road garden...and to even Goa but dad didn't send me to Goa :(

Guys...never disallow your child to any picnic..he will remember it for ages :)



hmm...all this written....all this remembered once again cos it was my son's first school picnic today...

I guess i was more excited than he was :) got his favourite "strawberries" from market y'day.

woke up early today...filled his tiffin with bread-butter-jam and strawberries...



And went to school to wave till the bus went atleast half km away...
