All for my baby

Well, now that i have started writing, i feel motivated to write on
various topics. Let me start with my baby. Well, Sriram is 15
months old now and he is the sole motivator behind the creation of
my blog. I am writing these random stories from my life so that he
can read thru them once he is big enough and probably appreciate
them. I still recall the days when he was barely 10 days old. I was
recovering from my delivery and was dreading everything. I wanted
to eat all those lovely aroma-filled dishes, but all those were a
big taboo. Only pathiyam sapppadu was to be followed. It consisted
of thipili rasam, garlic fried in ghee, manathakali fried, milk
rice, moong dal, veggies like avarakka, carrot, beans, sundakka and
no potato. I did follow them all, because my mom said that i will know their
benefits in the years to come. And then followed by arishtams,
kashayam and betel leaf........yuck! It left so much stains on my
teeth that i got a tooth polish to whiten them! But once again
thanks to my mom, it helped my baby not to vomit after his feed. I
heard betel leaf has some properties which help in calcium and
digestion as well. Well, kudos to my mom for eficiently helping me
out. More to come.........
