I am writing here after a long time... infact after since I joined the new company... Well all other posts will follow but this is going to be about the best ever feeling I got :-
It was about 8:20 pm on Nov. 2nd, 2008. I was standing just next to the operation theater, when the nurse came and handed him to my mom..... Yes, it was the little Me.... MY SON, Mini-me... PooPoo, Kuchchu and what not !!!!
I thanked the god, for the blessings and for the successful delivery, I do wanted to thank my wife also for the same.
Then I looked at my son, and kept looking, couldnt just remove my eyes of him, his full body was all white, and I was wondering whether all kids with 5 minutes of age look like this, or this is just my kid who is so white :).. weird no !!! There were a storm of thoughts with happiness in my mind... its difficult to put here.
Well, all the recently born kids (newly born are older than recently born) look white because of the environment they come from...
I looked at his small and delicate hands, eyes, face ..... was damn scared to even touch him. I washed my hands atleast twice before touching him.
His hands got familiar with new environment.. and became little raddish, and slowly his whole body looked much better.
Slowly he opened his beautiful eyes, and it was so fun... I immediately wanted to talk to him :))
Well, he didnt even know how to cry at that time, he was just taking some hicc-ups and sneezing also ....... and was making some noises with very small decibel units.
That night, I stayed in the hospital, with my mother, and my wife was unconscious due to sedatives, and mini-me. And guess what, I didnt sleep that night, not because I was worried about him... but because I was so happy, and was talking to my mom just about everything. Beech beech mein mini-me bhi kuch kuch bol deta tha...
And that night itself, just when he was about 8 hours old, he learned the art of crying .. I would say, that is the first thing mini-me learned. And I dont need to specify that the kid has mastered this art next day itself :)
I guess it was the feeling of the lifetime for me. And it was the best night so far.... And I am thankful to God for the blessings. My wife for this wonderful gift ... My parents, my brother and all my friends whose support and wishes is always there with me.
