First Emotional Embrace From My Cute Little Boy

Hi friends,

This is one of the emotional moment which made me realise how kids observe parents and their activities. Felt so happy at my son's (2 year old) gesture and wished to share the happiness

I am a stay at home mom. In the place I stay there is not much social interaction and spend the entire day in home. After hubby leaves to work its just me and my son. we keep playing with each other whole day and so he is close to me.

One day at noon, he had engaged himself in a new game set we had got for him and I was watching movie. I am the type who cries for sad scenes in movies . that day i was watching and there was a scene when the dad of the heroin dies in hospital (i am more emotional to such a scene as i have gone through it), unaware to me tears started flowing down from my eyes. I then realized that my son is now seeing me with confused look. he then came near me and asked, "Amma, enachu"(mom, what happened - in his childish language), I replied, "Onumila da kutty, nee velayadu" (nothing my dear u go and play).

He went back to play but kept turning to me now and then. Even though I was aware of this I just could not control my tears but managed to give a smile to my son. He then came near me and asked me to lift him. He then gave me a tight hug for a couple of minutes (reassuring hug as like elders) and said ipo alakoodathu ma (now u shouldn't cry mom)

I was now completely shocked and was so pleased and happy at his gesture. I could not express such a feeling in words and am sure all mothers here would have experienced it . It was comforting. felt like he was saying to me I am there for you now no need to worry. I then realised, though we look at kids and think they dont understand anything but they do note each and every thing of their parents. I always had thought am not doing much being a stay at home mom and just routine house chores, after this incident my perspective changed and I feel so proud to be at home and in raising such a wonderful kid. He is God's gift to me . There may be more moments like this later but this would be the most cherished moment of my life which proves I have been a good mom to my sweet boy .

Regards,
Meena
