What a weekend!!! Went by in a blur!
My sister, jeeju and their kids (Aneri and Jaanvi) visited me over the weekend.
It was all so blurry and went by so quickly, that I am not even able to collect my thoughts to write a post about it! Maybe I will do it over time, little by little, in multiple posts.
A few things I learnt watching my sister interact with her husband and kids:
- Take light, life's not so serious!
- Be yourself
- Don't be afraid to ask for what you want, but don't always expect to get what you want! (Learn to accept "no" for an answer!)
- Say no if you want to say no! Its ok!
- Kids are people too! They have feelings, they understand.
- Be tactful! (Oh geez, I really need to learn this one big time!)
- Be sly when you need to (टेढी ऊँगली से घी निकालना सीखो!)
And lots more I guess...these are just from some observations.
BTW, there is another post before this one. More recent in the chronology of my life (since the incidents in there happened today, and this post is about the weekend!)
Will write more as and when I remember stuff...till then...comment away :)

@mia, yeah, I did! I realized how isolated I am with just hubby for company all the time. I wish I had family closer to home. And..my name is Kashmira :) Aneri is my niece.
@prashant, she handled everything so smoothly, it was amazing! everyone was pretty much wrapped around her little finger! Well, she's been married for 12 yrs, and me for 6 months, so I got a long way to go!
@ankur, sure thing! and see my response to prashant above.
All the best hai aapko :)
