Zoozoozoo : A journey

Today is Sunday , May 1st 2022 and yesterday i was invited to my daughter's school to witness a small function.

My daughter Suhani was born in 2007 and the day clearly flashes in front of my eyes when she got on to the auditorium stage for her first annual function during her LKG class . I had dressed her up in a beautiful purple frock . The auditorium echoed with the sounds of claps as the team LKG stepped on to the stage and took their positions as couples . Their teacher had blushed everyone's cheeks pink and golden. The song started 'Zoozoozoo......we welcome you ......' and the kiddos started twisting their hips and legs holding on to their partners . Awww...it was such an adorable performance that a mother couldn't control her tears . Watching some kids who forgot their dance steps and wanted to just run here and there on the stage was fun too !

Yesterday was the day when she again marched on to the auditorium, this time raising the school flag in her hand . She was declared her house captain and i witnessed her investiture ceremony . Watching one's kids grow responsible and accomplish little by little are enough to make a mother feel proud .

As the principal was delivering few words about her from the podium , I was taken aback to 'Zoozoozoo........we welcome you.......'

Zoozoozoo.......her first stage performance 11 years back

For the past one month I was blogging as part of #BlogchatterA2Z writing festival and today with this post i have reached the finish line . This is my fourth time successful completion of #BlogchatterA2Z . Thanks to all of you who read my blogs and motivated me . Love you all !!!

Theme Reveal #BlogchatterA2Z 2022

I started my blog five years ago and my blogging journey during these five years has gone through many twists and turns . I started my blog on self hosted wordpress site , learnt lot many technical aspects like DA , SEO and latram patram .....Blogchatter has been a constant friend ( plus a big support) since then ....I have successfully participated in #BlogchatterA2Z three times .....and wrote two ebooks too during the process . All this was quite exciting you know as I got to understand a bit of creative side of writing , made some new blogger friends , and became a proud AUTHOR of two ebooks . In 2018 my theme was #Astitva where I wrote about various stigmas faced by a woman in our society . In 2019 I wrote under the theme #Prerna where I uploaded some inspirational posts . In 2020 all my blogposts were related to the life of middle aged women (as that was the time I had just stepped into my forties ) . That was the time I came up with the book 'The Silv...

A letter to my Kitchen

Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly . Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene . It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job in just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...
