Proud parents

We named our bundle of joy Kavya. I was in bharuch for a month and a half and then it was time to go back to my home to Pune. She was a lovely kid. I came to Pune and started enjoying motherhood and every bit of it. Each day when Koushik would come back from work I would tell him what new she had done that day. I would also call up his parents and tell them how beautiful she was and what her activities were. Like any other parent our life also started revolving around this little doll. Time flew and she was about 5 months when we went to Bharuch. We always rather koushik always wanted to buy a house in Bharuch. We had seen a couple of places. Koushik never liked to stay in a flat and wanted to buy a row house. There was this society we had seen and finally we booked toe house too. His mother was really happy as she always wanted to stay in her own house. The house was booked.

Our Bundle of joy

Exams were over. The results were out. I was now a qualified chartered accountant. The bigger result in our lives was still to come. Now I was so attached to Koushik I had no friends or anything. He had become my friend philosopher and my world in the past year and half. So ididnt wast to stay without him for long when I would go for my delivery,. Since I did not have my mom I was to go to Bharuch for my delivery. How I missed having my mother as I knew she would have been more than happy to see me so happy in my married life. Then I decided to go to bharuch on the 25th of September. I left and reached on the 25th morning. Went to the doctor for the check up and the doctor said there was still some more time. But on the 27th I got some false pains and asked koushik to leave from Pune. I always wanted him to be there in the labour room while I would deliver. So he left on the 28th morning even though his job was at stake as he had left without completing his month end closing. He reached on a Thursday and the maximum he could wait was until Sunday night. The same day when we went to the doctor for a sonography the doctor said that there I would deliver no way before the 7th of October. I didn’t want him to go back without beingthere for the delivery and all my prayers seemed to work. The same evening I started getting pains. I kept telling all that there were pains but all told me that it was fine and that was how it would be . but towards noht it became vry severe and at 2.30 am mom came out and said it was high time I was taken to the hospital. The moment I was there the nurse said the baby was ready to come out. I always wanted a daughter and was praying that the little one in there was a girl . we reached at 2.45 and at 3.05 am. There was a lovely sound of a baby crying . it was a girl. There was no end to my happiness. It was a pleasure to see my daughter.

Home sweet home

U can never get over the place where one has spent the entire life time. for me there was no place better than Pune in the whole. Who ever knew that we would move to Pune someday? When we were in Baroda Koushik got a call offer in Pune with a good company. When he came back from the interview he was so happy that it went off well. All my hopes seemed to be so much in my favour. He got the offer letter as well. It was time to change once again. Before we both shifted to Pune I went and stayed at my dads place and did some house hunting and fixed the place we would be staying in close to his office. I was so sue to the idea of him coming home for lunch each day so I wanted a house close to his office in Pune and did manage to get a good one. I went back to Baroda and did all the packing and then we moved to Pune.
Life just seemed to be getting better and better. Now we were a lot more settled and happy. From the first job that koushik was in where we needed to take money from his parents we had now become independent and were able to give his parents money each month. We had got financially quite sound. Also now in Pune I felt so comfortable. We moved to Pune in June. July was my CA results and to all my good luck and the institute’s kindness I cleared the CA attempt. Not only I but also karthik cleared the CA exams. Of course more credit was given to the baby who was going to be there in the world soon. The baby was to be the lucky charm.

Life gets to be really beautiful!!!

Baroda seemed so lucky and good for us. We had a wonderful house. Nice neighbours and I too got really serious about my attempt. I joined classed in baroda. I got good friends as well. His job was also quite good. The house we stayed also ws wonderful. The best part in all this was that we were quite close to Bharuch so mom and dad could come here more often and also we could run to bharuch more frequently. It was just a one hours drive. Koushuk would come home for lunch daily. So I used to cook good food for him as well . of course his schedule was quite erratic here as he would have a lot of late nights but even then somehow it all never pinched much. We both were so happy here in Baroda. We both always loved kids and wanted a kid soon after we got married. But till then nothing had happened. My friends used to make fun of me that I would have a kid the 9th month of my wedding. But when we were in Baroda probably god thought it was the right time to bless use with a baby. I remember in January I had my last cycle. In the month of February when I was due for my cycle it did not start on date. Since I was very regular so I got myself checked at home. But to my disappointment the first time I checked it was negative. I did not tell koushik about all this .I wanted to first confirm and then blow the trumpet. Then of 15th of Feb I got myself checked and then told him that evening. There was no extent to how happy he was. I also had to tell all my folks and his parents that there was a new member who would soon get added to the family tree. I ran down to the STD and told all my dear and near ones. I remember when I told his mom about it she jumped at it and just could not believe it. His grandfather was also there then in Bharuch. They were all so excited about it that I told them at 4 in the evening and they were all home at 8 in the night. It felt so good. I too felt so good about it. The initial celebration got over. But now I got a bit scared about my. I knew that if I did not clear this attempt I would not be able to clear ever as in the next attempt I would have a baby and then it would be impossible for me. It was a do or die situation for me and probably I took it so seriously. I would attend classed so regularly. Study day in and day out with more of concentration. Mom and dad would frequent Baroda every weekend or we would go there. Sometimes I would drive to Bharuch all by myself and give them surprises. Life just seemed to be getting so beautiful and everything was falling in place. I gave my attempt in Baroda
