Introduction

10th October Allahabad

Hello to all uncles,aunties & grandparents.........

I know that all of my future friends (classmates etc ) are now illiterate but never mind I will start a new blog for them. This blog is exclusive dedicated to you people...

My name is Arya. My mummy's name is Jyoti Mishra. She is very beautiful. My dad's name is Sandesh Mishra. In short, I am the latest addition in the Mishra Family.

When I was in my mother's womb, doctor nani(Dr. Shobha Pandey) has predicted my arrival date on 17th Oct 09 ( Diwali Day) but i thought it will be nice to celebrate diwali with my family so I preponed my arrival. On 14th September when my mother went for a regular checkup, Dr. Nani found my "dipping" pulse ( I was not feeling comfortable there !!!!!). Within 2 hrs, operation was done and I took birth at 1433 hrs at Kamla Nehru Hospital , Allahabad.

Immediately after birth, I shouted with my all might. Nanaji, naniji and mamaji , who were out of OT, were also very surprised. I can bet that mom (who was on local anesthesia ) could not ever forget my first voice through her life. Nanaji took me in his hands and transported to Nursury. He was happy rather his happiness knew no boundary when he carried me. My Mamiji (Mrs. Ila Upadhyay) shot my first 'portfolio" with her mobile in the nursery. She has done absolutely wonderful job as only those pics were " guarantee" of retrieval in case of any unfortunate replacement in the nursery :)

Dad , on that day, was in Mumbai. He was very confused as he was planning to come to us on 18th september 09. He had some intuition that I will not give him any lead time to travel. He also experienced varied mix of emotions and all his efforts to keep him busy were fruitless. He got relaxed when my mamaji ( Dr. Puneet Upadhaya) gave him the news at 1440 hrs. My Dadiji ( Mrs. Manjula Mishra) & dadaji (Mr. A.M. Mishra) were all in joy, when my dad broke my "news" to them. My one more dadi ( Mrs Meena Pandey - my dad's mausiji) went to "flashback" years with emotional memories about my dad's birth. My Bua ( Dr. Gunjan Mishra) got very angry as she was given "my news" on 1600 hrs but barring the "timing" she was also very happy.

Mom was advised to sleep and I was in nursery with 20-30 friends. Some were very tiny (premature birth) , some kept on crying ( and disturbing me in my sleep!!!) and others like to have sound sleep. Dad arrived at 2330 hrs in the hospital. He came to nursery to see me with Kuki aunty. Kuki aunty ( Dr. Priyadarshini- my mom's childhood friend) took me from the nursery and asked dad to carry me. He was afraid to carry me but stylishly evaded the situation by signalling Kuki aunty to carry me. His state of mind was beyond description. Probably this fact was sinking in him that he is now a "father".

For a very short time I was placed with my mom. I recognised her voice. Dad was viewing both of us with mesmerising eyes. Again I was transported back to nursery and thus my first day has ended.

Now I am feeling sleeping...Also I am tried ( I think you can understand how much efforts are needed to write blog when the writer is 25 days old!!!!!) .....I will be writing happenings of the next days on my next blog.

Till then... bye n take care

yours truly

Arya Mishra
