Initial Stages for fatherhood

Gaining maturity, growing older,feeling responsible, coming to office with blood shoot eye(You are totally mistaken..just because of sleepless nights )learning to derive joy by just watching our children grow up is a like a sin curve. Sometime you feel that you are on top of the world, knowing how to manage (initiate, planning, execute, monitor and control, closing) well. At other times, you are like a drooping plant craving for water (external energy/motivation).

Nathan is One Year Young - With a Bang!

Nathan turned 1 on 4th of April 2013. As we praise God for the miracles He had done in each one of life, I want to mention about the fall he had on 3rd evening. We had a prayer at our house and we are just cleaning up the place before we go to bed. We put Nathan on the stroller (pram) and fastened the belt.

Our Nathan was a bit cranky that day and tried his best to wriggle through the small space he had between the belt and almost stood up. As he stands, the centre of gravity of the stroller tilted and down came Nathan and the stroller.

We, the panic stricken parents jumped into action. His brother, Johan (you are familiar with him) started crying just by the impact of the fall. Nathan had injuries in his mouth. It hurt him quite badly. He was crying for almost 30 minutes no stops, till all his energy drained off.

We praise God that nothing else had happened to him. When our eyes are not on our near and dear ones, our Lord's is.
