(107) STICKER kiss..

Christmas was fine. Called up some friends and wished them.Later, Charvi and I went down in the building park for Christmas Carnival along with my neighbour and her daughter. That was OK. Then we went to the mall opposite to us and spent good time indulging in variety of foods. Yesterday was good. Today it was bit tiring, but one lovely thing happened too. While I was driving back home, Charvi fell asleep. I slowed down and lowered her seat and tightened her belt, she was looking very cute while sleeping. I kissed her and drove back home. She woke up but laid lazy and stared at the walls. I went closer to her and kissed her on her pink cheeks, but she did not respond. She was still silent and lost in her thoughts. I got a sharp flash of related memory from my childhood. I was just the same. Many a times I wouldn’t retort to others gestures of pamper and love when lost somewhere, but when kissed on the forehead, I would be all in the arms. Few favorites never changes over the passing of time. I still feel the same pamper, support, closeness, security, belongingness, strength, trust, confidence and victory when I am embellished with love on my forehead. I never tried and try to unearth the reason behind such a pious feeling I experience whenever I am kissed on the forehead. And somehow I get this impression, that Charvi is akin to me in this matter. Today, when she was not responding to all my cuddling and teasing, I held her face tight and kissed her for long on her forehead, but with a very naughty and loud noise. When I stopped, she reacted, smiled and said something which made me laugh throughout the evening. She said, “ mamma, aapne mujhe sticker kiss ki?(did u give me the sticker kiss?). I was shocked with this new kind of name for a kiss and i said what??....she repeated. “mamma , aapne mujhe sticker kiss kiyanaa.”.I aksed her, “ sticker kiss kya hota hai?”(what is sticker kiss?). she said.. “arree mamma, jaise hum book ke ander sticker fevistick se zor se chipka dete hai, waise hi aapne mere forehead per kiss chippka di naa!!, toh yeh sticker kiss haina?”(arree mamma, the way we stick the sticker with fevistick in the book, sameway you have stuck the kiss on my forehead, so this is sticker kiss na.!)….i was so amazed to have found the new kiss..or rather new name of the kiss…The Sticker Kiss..and the founder is my cute little daughter.. Charvi..
You know.. My mother in law surely kisses us all on our foreheads whenever we visit her or she visits us.

And yes, I missed to say….do watch 3 Idiots. It’s a wonderful movie..a must must watch..have fun. One sec, one sec, one more thing..today again I was invited by my another neighbour and she too served me and Charvi with very tasty Sarso da saag and hot makka chapattis…I had it overfull.. it was yummy, I don’t know when will I learn to cook them. Bye for now. Good night, I got to go to sleep. Am very tired, had been driving a lot in last 3-4 days. Also, I am expecting my sis-in-law tomorrow morning, plus Dheeraj will also be coming back home, so lots of work to do. Catch you soon…
