It’s not about winning or losing, it’s about playing it fair and learning it all along.

My twin girls are three years old. They just turned three. Their every step is so enlightening to watch. They both are so different, unique in their own ways. I learn from them and they learn from me. So two days back, one aunty came who love them so dearly. So could not come on their birthday so she came two days back. And she brought a new game for them. Which brought new excitement. They both got busy with the new things they received. It’s a basketball set for indoor purposes. So Khushi is little stronger, taller, more aggressive in nature and has more energy. She tries to get things done her way always. I have to be so patient with her always and explain to her in every way with love so much. God help me and he does! Pari is more patient, fair and smaller. She would do everything fairly, smaller in height, lesser in strength but very loving in nature. So they were getting five turns each to put the ball in the basket. Pari was unable to get even one to the basket in the beginning. Khushi could reach it. (To reach it, on the first day they requested to stand on their small chair) After finishing her turns Khushi was always insistent to snatch extra turns to put the ball and Pari as always was waiting patiently and playing fair. After few turns khushi was still not getting it right but pari though she was smaller and more observant, she could do it right and was scoring every basket.

So here was my turn, be honest, be patient, develop your trick. And it is not about getting more opportunities, it is about doing it patiently, fairly and then you would win more than your competitor in the end. Did she understand everything, I do not know, may not be everything but yes she was listening and was trying to. But I know what lessons I have to keep training her on. Everyone will have own lessons to learn. As a mother it is my responsibility and duty to help them know the difference between right and wrong, their own strengths and then play fair in life. No one is perfect and no one is perfect in all. But we all have to know that one thing we can do perfectly. I guess as a parent we all have to do that.

Happy parenting, happy mothering. My family is my world. They have made me full of love. On this Valentine’s day, I can not thank God enough for filling up my life with so much love. (And so much loving mess around me everyday..ha ha ha ha ha…)
