Her mother wanted to have a special invitation card for her cutie boy that would be memorable, cherished and liked by all…
Her uncle is an multifaceted artist, designer with various other talents. So as usual, we reached out to him to print the invitation cards.
While I searched and finalized on what we wanted to be printed on the card, we also picked out his recent photos 9-10 months old that was adorable and captivating as a cover photo on the invitation.
In our days, it is the traditional method of Tamil invites that go out for such functions. We did that as well for him but as an add on for friends and others we had this specially designed card bearing his photo, a message and cute little animals also were embedded to make it graphical, lyrical and beautiful.
When you reminisce, these images bring a smile and happy thought of a blissful and blessed life with the child. Truly, God was kind enough to bless us with this fabulous child who has brought light into our lives. A child is a gift of god, so please treasure those moments and days as much as possible so that you can relive them countless no. of times in your lifetime. You will never ever get bored of these times as they are special, lived only once and can never ever be reclaimed again except through the arrival of another child in your home.
Childhood….It’s definitely the best part of your life….at best you can live it twice or thrice….first time…..your own childhood…..second time……with the arrival of your child……third time……when you become a grandparent……god bless you…..if you live long enough to see the birth of another generation…..you have got something really in you…..that needs to be retrieved and medically stored for others……
The one you see on the top is the finalized one but here are the other option which we skipped as it was too cluttered.
For those who cannot read my poem…here it is…..

A little angel blessed our lives
We named him Anirud
In the past year
He has learned to laugh and crawl, sit and stand
And can walk now if you hold his hand
But the fun has just begun
He is raring to go and say aloud
Look out world, I am turning one!
When he is beside us time has just flown
We can’t believe how much he has grown
He is a whole lot of sunshine, with a bright smile to light your days
He’ll steal your heart and warm it with his warm endearing ways
He’s our precious little son with sweetness from above,
Who will fill our years with laughter and fill our hearts with love
Our baby prince is turning one
Come and join the fun
Beautiful Life
