My Dearest Adira,
18th October, 2018 is the day, when you had entered my life as my first GRAND child ! The feeling of being a GRANDmother is really grand, my precious one and its all because of you!
Jab we met ! 
The first photo in hospital 
When we speak through eyes !!
And I swear, I have never seen such a pretty baby ever in my life. Before I held you in my arms, I thought there can never be a baby on this earth as cutiepie as your papa and chachu were. But you have shattered this myth. 😊 You are God’s blessing in my life.
My ever inquisitive baby 🙂
You have turned one today and it’s a delight to see your personality unfold and coming into your own. I admire you when you show streaks of defiance and strong will. No one can do anything against your wishes – not even put a morsel of food in your toothless mouth without your wish. 😛
My strong girl – Donot miss the Mary Kom punch! 
That “no messing with me” look 
My happy girl ! 
The famous Einstein tongue looks 🙂 
Investigating 😛
“Annaprashan” is a sanskrit word which literally means ” grains initiation”. It’s a Hindu ritual which marks the beginning of solid foods in infant’s life who is till then feeds only on mother’s milk. Your annaprashan was celebrated on Baisakhi, 13 April, 2019. Baisakhi is also celebrated as a festival of harvest. Can there be a better day to start your cereal foods?

Mera phool gulab ! 
On a visit to Dinosaur park in Ahmedabad – Why here, papa ? 
And when I got a glimpse of TV, which they do not let me see otherwise. 
Confused to see so many people while on a lunch outing on papa’s birthday.

My precious, I can’t promise you a world where the streets may be safer or people are not judging you on the basis of what you wear or do but I promise you all the support which you need, to be a strong girl and move ahead to achieve your dreams, my little one.
I would like you to be a girl who is happy and values her uniqueness.
I see you as someone who is in command and control.
May you have the capacity to rise to the occasion whenever life throws any challenge to you.
May your heart be full of compassion towards people who love and value you.
May your life be filled with lots of love and affection !
May you be brought up without passing any fears and biases against anyone or anything, thus letting your mind free and open!
I do not need to shout from the roof top, that I love you because I know you can feel my love and affection.
On your first birthday, I wish you a happy, healthy and contented long life ahead. With lots of love and hugs my little ladoo Gopal !! 💖💖💖😍🤗
God bless the little angel
