So. Last night I was up till 1:30am here in Delhi, India, working on creating a small video presentation introducing our little darling to the world. Just 3 more days for Ayaan Veer to be ours for life and us to be his! And yes, 3 more days for my birthday too! I wanted to be a mom by 35 and look at the way the universe works-I will be one on that day itself!!! :)
Meanwhile its hot here in Delhi (Indian summers are famous for that), but its great roaming around in the lovely AC Metro, shopping and getting new curtains made for our bedrooms. Ah! The joys of belonging to 2 different countries! India is amazing for shopping, esp stuff like getting custom made things. The curtains that would have cost us over $8000 at least, in Canada, cost me less than $200 appx here. But of course the work you have to put in to go to inner markets, walk amongst 1000s of people, negotiate to save you the extra $s or I should say INR.... totally worth it in the end!
My little sister, Harnoor (Hanu to us), is planning a nice Birthday dinner for me for the 25th which is something Im also very excited about! I havent spent my birthday with her for over a decade at least, now.
