…anirud’s narrative about her mother and what she does for him…
My Mother is the most beautiful person. She loves me a lot and takes care of me. Every day she wakes me up in the morning with a lot of fondles, cajoles and kisses. She helps me to brush my teeth and gives me milk. After that when I am in the bathroom, she listens patiently to all the daily events of my school which I narrate. Then along with a couple of my toys, she gives me a wonderful bath. Once I am out of my bath, she towels me dry and applies cream and powder. Thereafter, she drapes me in my school uniform and makes me ready to eat my breakfast.
The previous night, she would ask me what I need for my breakfast and lunch. She always loves to cook my favorite food items. She makes such delicious and tasty food. However, I am a poor eater and my father sits along with me to read me stories while I eat. She checks my school diary, note books and keeps all the books for the day in my school bag. Also, she packs my lunch bag. Then once I am done with my breakfast, she helps me wear my shoes and I get ready to go to school.
We leave our flat and she comes down to drop me in my school van. In the evening, she comes down to pick me up from the school van. She has sacrificed her dreams by not going to work, to take care of me. She would be waiting eagerly for me to come from school. Once I am back, she would give me a bath and inquire if I had food properly at school. She would feed me food and ask how the day was spent at school and what the teacher taught.
Thereafter, she would take me to other classes like drawing, karate and singing to become an all-rounder. Once I come back from these classes, she would allow me to play with my toys and friends. After the play time, it is study time. I trouble her a lot during this time as I don’t listen to what she says. She scolds me and sometimes I also get beaten. Thereafter, she would cry why she had to shout at me. But it was all for my benefit as only then I can study well and get good marks in school. That’s why I love her the most. She is the loveliest mama in this world.
At night, as a family we all have dinner together and she again makes great food for the family. We chatter and eat talking what happened during the day. I would ask her permission to watch my favorite cartoon channel, POGO, to see Chota Bheem and his friends. Once, the dinner is over, it’s time to hit the bed and get some good sleep to get ready for another day. I give kisses to my mother and father and cuddle between them for a dreamy night. I sleep peacefully as my guardian angel, my mother, takes good care of me, every day and night.
Beautiful Life
