| The dinosaur soft toy cum melody maker |
Slowly we started picking them out one by one, I did the job myself despite the small, eager arms wanting to pull and grab at everything. It was difficult to figure out which items were suitable for whom when suddenly my younger son’s attention was grabbed by a colourful dinosaur that he pulled out and claimed him as his own. Later we figured out that it was a musical toy to soothe a baby, I know how invaluable that could be for a new mother and I fell in love with its sweet melody.
I opened the other items, one by one, a hand cream, some spa products, an apron. While I was secretly pleased with my gifts, my elder son was starting to look worried by now. There were some t-shirts and a pair of shorts but none his size. Then suddenly he exclaimed “That could be my swim bag!”

Relieved I continued opening the other stuff. What I liked best was the surprise element about this box wherein the recipient has to individually open each beautifully wrapped item which adds to his / her excitement, not to mention the sweet fragrance that permeates through the box. Among other things, we found a sticker book, a t-shirt with Albert Einstein in a unique pose both of which were lapped up by my elder son. Finally everything opened I took a few photographs.
One more nice stuff from your side

WOW! So now, Mehroo has another feather in her cap! The magic box is really sweet and that attached personalized letter — the perfect cherry on the cake. Very well deserved title, here's a salute to all the Mama's of the world. Congratulations! 🙂
How come the biggest baby got nothing? I bet Kaiwan must have sulked all day for not getting his share while you tried to pacify him 🙂
Mehroo this post is so cute and I can feel your excitement and I registered for this event as well. Will come with Lulu 🙂 See you there but … see you on Friday first 🙂
Thanks Arti, yes it does feel so nice when someone appreciates all your effort and this one was perfect icing on the cake!
Hi Vishal, Thank you!
I wish I had a camera to click his pout when we were all getting excited about our gifts! But then our smiles are his gift…right?
Hi Mehernaaz, you bet! I was so excited I did not let anyone touch the box till I finished my work and was ready to open it without any interruptions…having said that thre are still some tiny bits packed inside that I haven't unravelled….too much excitement for this week….saving it for a rainy day! Yes see u Fri and Sat!
Looks like such a fabulous box of gifts! I admire your restraint at saving some of them for a rainy day – I could never do that!
Hi Mawgan, thank you for your comment. Another reason why it is very easy to restrain is that I am in the midst of a crazy-busy week. What with the start of school after a 2-week long holiday and back to the pick-ups, drops and after-school activities. Besides I have a big birthday party coming up – a combined one for my boys, so I am on an all-alert for that!
Hi Mehroo
That's what is called a surprise day that surely made your life even more beautiful. I am happy to see your blog and glad that you were a model. I would like to ask how difficult it is to be far away from the glam world and stay from the arc lights and blitz. It would be interesting to write about the modelling days.
Cheers
Vishal
