I was looking at my old posts and saw that I had written a few book reviews and all the reviews here were about kids’ books. Back then, I spent more time reading books to my kids rather than reading books myself. Before having kids, I was an avid reader. I loved reading and I…

Having it All!
Happy New Year!! My mom was a working woman who managed to balance it all beautifully. She has always been my role model. But, when I am trying to do it all and have it all, it feels so much more difficult. She made it look so easy even though I know it was not…
Washington DC
We finally made the trip to DC and New York this summer. It was a long awaited trip. The kids have been asking to go to NYC for a long time, but something or the other prevented us from making it happen. This summer we planned it in the one week window we had where…
Summer 2022 – Part 2

Happy New Year 2022
It has been more than a year since I wrote in my blog. As usual 2021 has been a very busy year. I feel like the time is just flying by and I am barely able to keep up. I took up a full time job in February of 2021. A remote job with a…
Halloween
This year’s Halloween was different like everything else. The kids didn’t get to wear costumes to school or go trick or treating. They were disappointed initially, but we convinced them saying it is better to stay home. They are old enough to understand, but were still not happy. They did play some Halloween games during…
