First to come is the personalized wish from the little one…..they are to be treasured as it’s totally honest, forthright coming straight from the heart of the innocent minds….so cherish them for life.
That’s always true…for every Child their Dad is their first hero until they outgrow them and realize after all they are only mortal….
This birthday of mine was truly special, because of what my lady love planned as a surprise. I knew that she was going to cut a cake at the gym but I did not know the outcome, which was quite cool as you can see from the picture. We had been going to Gold’s Gym Adyar for the last 3 years or so and she had planned for a cake cutting with our trainer Balaji at the Gym. As for the cake, since it was at the Gym, she had asked for a cake in Dumbbells shape with my age denoting the weight along with a white hand towel, water bottle and mobile and headphones – my standard accessories set. (seriously that’s brilliantly original). Everyone thought that was lovely and of course the Cake was delicious too. It was the same person who did the cakes for Anirud’s birthday that created this lovely masterpiece. I was really touched by this wonderful gesture, attention, care and abundant love showered upon me by my eternal heartbeat.
The regular patrons that come everyday for working out be it shine, shiny or shiniest….tweaking it a little bit for the Chennai heat….our hotness quotient is quite high you see…there is no time to chill out…as we always breathe fire like the Sun…People who have lived or been to Chennai in peak summer would be able to understand the understated pun….just for fun….
The usual discoloration that goes after every cake cutting… who discovered this practice man…seriously…good facial though…
Selfie time with my Beau and Balaji….amazing trainer….more about him on a separate note….as there is lots to talk and share those “sweltering” and “mouthwatering” experiences….once you read that blog-post you will realize the meaning of those words
Ok LadyBird…..time to go to office…..let’s take a pic together in my new dress…showing a little bit of teeth and smile for a change…like a rare unearthed jewel that shows up only once in a while
My team had sprung a special surprise for me at the office sticking balloons, some write up and decorative items…that was truly generous and thoughtful of them and to be honest really nice….makes you feel mighty good that you are liked by some folks at least and appreciated for whatever you do…however you do it
On the same day we celebrated Vinod’s 20th anniversary in CTS and they also organized a cake cutting for my birthday as well…so that was the second one for the day
Second facial for the day…if you wonder why I was glowing on that day…it was more because of the warmth and fondness shown by family, friends and colleagues to make it a memorable day
Morning celebration at the Gym, Afternoon in office and the kiddo was furious that he did not get to partake in those celebrations (mainly missing those yummy cakes and fun)…so obviously I have to make it up. Usually, the onus is on me to decide the venue when we have to go out…..since it was my birthday, she decided to take the mantle and since we were registered at Little Italy (my favorite restaurant) they give some additional discount for my birthday…and why not enjoy it when it is also closer to your home…..in a relaxed setting
So from morning to night it was all to my liking…and we ordered the Caramel Custard Cake and the little birdie blew the candle to bid the day a farewell
Life would not be what it is but for her…. my eternal charmer, a gorgeous and entrancing beauty that I am so enraptured with…. ever since I set my eyes upon her….She is my lifeline She thinks, breathes and lives a life that’s merged into one…..
Beautiful Life
