A Cute Letter from a married girl to her mother

Dear mom,

Like every normal girl, I was excited about marriage right from my childhood days.I had lot many  sweet dreams framed for my partner.

I never thought beyond the time that I would spend happily with my prince here in USA.

But today after marriage, I realize that marriage is not only bed of Roses. It’s not just about being with your beloved and having a gala time.

There is so much more to it.....

It comes with its own share of responsibilities, duties, sacrifices and compromises with your hubby.

I can’t wake up anytime I want to. I am expected to be up and ready before everyone else in the family.

I can’t laze around in my pyjamas throughout the day. I am expected to be presentable every time.

I can’t just go out anytime I want to. I am expected to be sensitive to the needs of the family.

I just can’t hit the bed anytime I want to. I am expected to be active and around the family.

I can’t expect to be treated like a princess but am supposed to take care of everyone else in the family.

And then I think to myself, sometimes ‘why did I get married at all?’ I was happier with you, mom.

Sometimes I think of coming back to you and getting pampered again.

I want to come home to have my favorite food cooked by you every evening after a nice outing with friends or after I return from my college after a long train ride.

I want to sleep on your laps like I have no worry in this world.

But then I suddenly realize, had you not got married and made such sacrifices in your life, I wouldn’t have had so many wonderful memories to hang on to.

And suddenly, the purpose of all this becomes clear- to return the same comfort, peace and happiness to my new family that I got from you.

And I am sure that as time passes, I have started loving this life equally as you do. Thank you mom for all the sacrifices and compromises you made. They give me the strength to do the same. Love you.

Yours and only yours
Supriya

Bye Bye Louisville.....

Louisville, KY: The first place where I spent major time outside Mumbai.

Came to Louisville in Oct’11. Spent a year-and-a-half discovering that I could remain sane without a job. Yes, Iam on H4 Visa here.

And now time has came to say Bye Bye to louisville.and friends who made relationship more than friendship with us...Its very difficult to bid farewell to louisville...But we have to with heavy heart!

31st july 2013 is our last day in louisville rather last day of Nikhil in office...No longer we remain kentuckians now...rather Louisvillians...But still it has made home in our heart and the memories behind it are so cute that its hard and tough to eradicate it from mind...because of following 'n' number of reasons...

Louisville is a quaint, small city in Kentucky, just an hour from Cincinnati. There are lots of Indians in Louisville, which is why; at times it becomes difficult to believe that we are in US.

Louisville has stunning waterfront skyline...



It has over 120 parks

Over 1/3rd of the worlds Bourbon comes from louisville

Official bats of major league baseball are made in louisville.

It is home to largest victorian neighbourhood in US

It has nation's largest urban forest.

The most exciting Two minutes in sports happens in louisville..."Famous for Multimillion -Dollar Kentucky Derby festival"

Louisville is named the Top Travel Destination for 2013 by Lonely Planet! It is a city on the move, with major amenities like world-class performing arts, great sports and incredible dining.

Louisville offers hospitality, warmth and smaller-city advantages like shorter commutes and a lower cost of living. We're proud that Louisville has been named America's "Most Livable" large city and one of the top "Foodiest Cities" in the world.

Louisville is a City of Parks with one of the nation's largest parks expansions underway, adding 4,000 new acres of park land and the 100-mile Louisville Loop trail encircling the entire community.

My trip to Louisville gave me the opportunity to spend quality time with my husband, start this blog, discover my love for cooking, learn cake decoration, learn how to make bead jewelry, make and nurture friendships, and realize that there are a whole lot of things to do without a job.

How time really flies away no one knows!...we are moving to Richmond Virginia on 8th of August and celebrating our arnu's 3rd b'day in richmond ....not even dreamed of it!... moreover with his beloved moushi..
wo to sone pe suhaga...Happy that we are moving where my sisy can reach me at least!

I would surely like to frame our second trip to Louisville. And that time Please Louisville let me realize one of my dreams: work in US....
I think I would have been lost in a bigger city like Chicago or New York. Louisville is a great place to be.

Here is the video which depicts hidden memories of ours in louisville...yes indeed louisville was such a nice place to live in that we left louisville with broken heart...love you louisville...........

Letter to dad on his 60th b'day

My dad is 60 years old today! Happy, happy birthday daddy!

As your birthday approached, I wished I wanted to do something extra special...I searched and thought for lot many things...I cracked my brain a lot...But sorry daddy being too too much far away I could not send you anything but this golden letter!...Hope you will enjoy reading this...and forgive me for not sending anything!

Today I clearly remember What a strong leader you have been in my life,and this is the best day to express concern that it may be hard for me to “switch loyalties” to my husband because I am so used to having my life guided by you daddy...So today I assure you that you will “not be losing me as a daughter.never and never!

I will be there for you anytime and anywhere! you will feel my presence to be necessary... Even though you are no longer supposed to be head of my life, no one could ever fill your place in my heart, I will always need your love, and I will love you forever.

Sincerely today I hate being far away from you and missing such large chunks of life…you, mine, and me, yours.But cant help even though physically Iam far apart from you daddy mentally Iam always for you and with you...My heart,soul,conscience is there with you celebrating your 60th birthday and wishing you everything best in life!

Frankly daddy you are really blessed to have daughter like sukhada how very memorable she made your birthday by sending you ultimate cake from america...You should be really proud of her...she made ur day!

Also you are lucky enough to recieve best gift from mom!Nothing can be compared with the feelings emotions that are depicted by mom's gift!...the beautiful ring of gold! I was very much happy delighted and thrilled to see all that today on Webcam.No words to describe the feelings behind them!

I think this one is best oppurtunity to ask you to forgive me if I ever misbehaved with you!

Iam feeling very much ashamed and guilty that being your big daughter I could not send you any gift but only wishes on this big b'day of yours!

But yes one day will surely plan to gift you with something or the other...waiting eagerly to see you in USA soon!

This time I wont write much...My letter will be short and sweet!

In my last letter only I have already described my feelings regarding you and they are not at all going to be changed and that is my sincere promise to you on this Beautiful day!

Stay blessed and enjoy to the core your life with mom!

Indeed The older I get, the more I realize how lucky I am to have parents like you and Mom.  I will be eternally thankful for all that you have taught me in life in general....

I hope you had a great birthday, here's to many more!

I would like to tell you one thing that you are not going to lose everything that you have worked so hard for, and would thank you for being so firm with me when necessary and for not giving up on moulding me into the woman you always knew I could become....

I end by saying that you are everything I could have ever wished for in a father.And Iam still trying so hard to be the daughter you wanted me to be.

I love you, Dad.  I hope you can sit back and take joy in the life you’ve lived, because that’s what I’m doing today and it’s quite a life to remember.  Happy 60th Birthday.
