Before I begin this post, let me first ask you a few questions about how well you know your husband. What are your husband’s painful and happy childhood memories? What are the things that make him happy or stressed right now? What are his dreams and aspirations for the future? The first question is about […]
Listen to your Maternal and Wifely Instinct
As a new mom I didn’t know when my instinct was kicking in, I’m not even sure how should it feel. One time when I noticed my daughter slightly bending down with her hands on her knees — a pose which she does not usually do — I decided not to fuss over it and […]
