Dearest Vittu/Shreeja,
So, today is your 5th happieee wala buddaayyy!! It still feel like yesterday that your Amma was in the labour ward, anticipating YOU! We all were equally excited and nervous at the same time. I remember praying so hard to lord for a healthy baby. voila! You popped out at around 21.58 :D
All of us present there had tears of joy. We dint know how to express our happiness. It all seemed so blissful. Amamma held you first amongst our family members. You were nothing but a baby rabbit, rolled in a white towel! Oh my god! That moment ! It was simply priceless. I wanted more of you already...imagine just a few minutes of your arrival, there was a strong bond already making an appearance! :)
That first touch, first kiss, first time our eyes met, the way you held my little finger with your whole palm, your beautiful smile, the heart shaped mole on your left hand...ummm! I can probably go on and on! Never before had I felt that happy,blissful,loved and responsible. I knew just one thing, I wanted more of you. I wanted to spend a lot of time with you. Wanted to make a bond with you, so strong that we never go apart. You were nothing but a miracle. I was in my 12th standard and had my board exams in March..honestly, I dint bother about my exams..because I knew you were more important to me :D Now when I look back, I feel so good that I chose you over my exams ;) But luckily I was able to score averagely well for my very poor preparations! :D
I grew up again with you..every day, every month, every year.
Last 5 years have been wonderful just because of the fact that you are in my life. Its really hard to believe that, the baby whom I held, took care of, fed, cleaned, gave bath to, has grown up so much today.
The best part now is, that you are able to think on your own. I definitely know how much you love me. But, I love you a little more :)
The 'n' number of games we play, all the secrets that we share, all the kithapathi's we do jointly..I will cherish all of this for a lifetime.
Now you are almost done with Lkg. I am sure in no time you will be in class 5 :)
All said, I have a little wish and advice for you my kanda.
My wish for you is that may you live a very long life with good health, happiness, prosperity, peace of mind, lots of love for ever and ever.
While you live your life, I want you to enjoy every moment of your life no matter what the circumstances are like. You must learn to be happy even for the silliest of things. I want you to be grateful for everything that you are blessed with..for the kind of family you are born into. You must always be humble and kind. At the same time, remember, the world and people around you are not always fair. There are chances of you coming across many people/situations which might seem very unfair, but remember just one thing -- Everything happens for a reason.
So, you give your best and leave the rest to God. I want to see you as a successful musician bangari :)
Given a chance, I would go on and on. But, let me keep more of it for the letters to come :)
I love so much vittu. You will always be Chikkamma's most favourite baby. You remind me of my childhood and all the mischievous things I was up to as a little girl !!
Happy birthday, Princess!
Much love,
Chikki.
