I don’t have a brother. I do have cousins. That’s why Rakhi while growing up was not something I thought a great deal about. But my sister who is six years younger wanted to celebrate all festivals. She insisted that since we looked out for each other we should tie Rakhi to each other Raksha Bandhan is just that. Right?
Protecting, looking out, and helping each other out. Isn’t that what the spirit of Rakhi all about?
My little girl celebrates Rakhi at school, with loads of fun and little idea about Raksha Bandhan .i did try to explain to her today morning when she got ready for school. She was more interested in learning how to tie it, than why and whom of it.
She has 3 cousin brothers who are not close. So if I do make a point about Raksha Bandhan she will not really understand. I am in two minds.
In the epic Mahabharat, Draupadi tied a Rakhi on Krishna. That’s why taking His name Draupadi always got protection.
Whether to make Rai feel her cousins are the brothers, or she would be better off, tying it to Krishnaand make God her protector.Any tips on this?

I believe the only reason I even try to be wonder woman , is because I have Super Daddy helping me.Otherwise, after 15 years of Medical education, I would have a hard time managing home and work .Not mentioning blogging here because writing suddenly has a life of its own and has grown up to get itself done even in the middle of the madness.
This post was written a few years back but republished to celebrate Father’s Day.
My hubby is Daddy dear with a twist.He does everything mommy does, with less amount of irritation.But Mommy wins hands down,when it comes to cuddles and creative challenges.
Are all Dads superheroes? Believe it or not, till 5 years of age they are, at least if they are reasonable normal dads.
After that, the child will judge you by standards which are pretty high, so superhero status can get difficult.
What makes a superhero Daddy?
I think men who can feel,make superhero daddies .They are those who can love. They are not afraid of nappy changes,who never stop being their partners best friends make superhero daddies.Men who love their wives and can rise above their Y chromosome’s, hunter-gatherer mode,can become super daddy.
Behind every well-behaved, kind child,is a set of well-behaved kind parents.
Mommy and Daddy are the two parts of the universe.Both needs to be super material, to carry on the work of future building.
Daddy must be able to wipe tears and put back a smile.
Babysit with elan.
Help mommy potty train the little one.
Help with baby feeding.
Should help with teaching the child
Should not undermine mommies 100% veto power.
Should always love mommy and baby.
Should always be there when a bully needs taking care of.
Should always remember that mommy and baby are waiting at home and come home early in the evenings to play and give mommy a break!

No one likes to hear a baby crying. As a mother, you will always want to prevent it and give baby relief as quickly as possible. That’s why you need to know why colic happens and the first steps to prevent and give relief.
For baby’s colic pain remedy, Mother Sparsh has developed a Tummy Roll On, which is made up of the combination of different natural oils.
What does it contain?
It contains natural oils Hing Oil, Pudina Oil, Sonth Oil, Saunf Oil, and Sova Oil. The unique combination of 5 Oils helps ease stomach discomfort. The benefit of Hing oil for colic is widely known The presence of fennel oil (Saunf Oil) in this roll on has anti-colic properties which help to reduce stomach bloating, gas and also helps the baby to burp.
Hing or asoefitida is an interesting ingredient in the Indian kitchen. Since ancient times in Indian households, in case of flatulence and distension of the stomach, asafoetida or Hing was dissolved in hot water and a pad of cloth steeped in it was used for fomenting over the abdomen(source). The gum resin and the hing oil has antispasmodic, carminative, laxative, and sedative effects. This method is cumbersome and that’s why the tummy roll-on is a boon and blessing. You can buy it on Amazon
