Between You and Me

Its 7 months.That means you are 7 months old inside my tummy now.Big enough to kick me now and then, as if turning my attention toyou.Acknowledging your demand I then gently rub my hand on my stomach and you will then go back to your sound sleep as if happy andcontent.I can feel a bond quietly growing between us day by day and myeagerness to see your tiny little face increasing.I think of you, Ithink of hundred names to call you but no name satisfies me as much as to call my little princess by that name. Because you are special to me.

How would you look? I often think about that.My room is full of baby pics wherein I try to search your face. Finding no answer, I concludewith the thought that you will be my reflection.Even then the mystery remains and my mind asks me - Will you have long thick hair like me?Dark, large eyes, a sweet smile? Will you be a bubbly, lively childroaming around like a butterfly? I don't know.But you are mine and only that counts.

Is it the magic of motherhood overwhelming me? Whenever I happen tosee a pretty frock, an attractive toy or a beautiful pair of shoes, a voice inside me tells automatically-I will buy all this and more for my little princess.You will be a real princess in our lives and I amsure your father will also leave no stone unturned to grow you up like that.He tells me you will be a techie like him.He wants to teach you computers even before you are one year old.But I imagine dressing youup for your first dance performance in school.Whatever you choose to be, you will be the apple of our eyes. Our little Princess.From helping you take your first step, I have listed hundreds of things which I want to do for you and do with you..I want to be there with you always as a mother and as a friend.Wiping your tears at your difficult times, sharing your happiness at all your successes, guidingyou at turning points in life and simply be there when you are readyto take independent steps into this big world, to reassure you when you turn back.

I always wonder why should it take almost one year for you to call me"Mama".Because I am eager to hear that. 3 months more and am waitingfor you to step into this world. I am waiting for that moment when youwill be placed in my arms.I am waiting to hold you close to my heart,then look into your beautiful face and kiss you gently on yourforehead.I am waiting to see that angelic smile spread on your face.Iam sure, all my pains, all my aches and all the hardships will vanishing that ecstatic moment.Because I have got something very beautifuland precious in return.
