Bright academic performance is awesome but becoming a good person is what matters most and in that aspect I will say that all our kids have bloomed beautifully well, specially Sid who carries himself with poise and awareness of other people's sensitivities.There is no better feeling in the world than to realize that your children are turning out to be good human beings.
So,we had this nice family dinner to celebrate the kids.Moments like these are to be cherished forever. We are a middle-class family, we take care of one another (sometimes even in the most awkward manner) and we try as hard as possible not to be judgmental. There are times where we succeed and others where we fail. Sometimes we fall short at understanding one another but come what may, we try to make sure that no one gets hurt in the process and we see to it that home is the safest haven where one can sleep soundly.
Most of the time, it is the children who teach us the best. I was listening to Sid and Ashna conversing with such natural ease about their hook ups last night that at one point I thought I was in a sitcom. It was funny, charming and disarmingly spontaneous.
Well, my wish is for them to be proud of us as we are of them and to try not to let them down. I pray that our pieces of advice will guide them far enough to help find their way in the world.
