Mom’s Life Saving Visit


Chris’ business trips started piling up, and I was getting a little worried about doing so much on my own and keeping up with my work life.  I literally picked up the phone and asked mom if she would come the following week for two weeks- of course, as a great mom, she said yes.  Even after I told her that I needed to her to help some days with Naveen and then some days with the house, she agreed.

She came with only one carryon bag that had enough food for us for a week and half, multiple gits/clothes for each one of us, and her basic essentials!  I seriously thought there was a dead body in the bag when I picked it up—but she got it on just as a carry on!  That is what I call efficient!

It was so wonderful having mom with us.  I loved that Naveen bonded with her, and she helped out  SOOOO much with the house.   I can not tell you how much you assisted us- not only to did she watch Naveen most days, but she did the laundry (millions of loads), cleaned the fridge, cleaned the bathrooms, floors, bedrooms, categorized all Naveen’s clothes that he can not longer wear from this past year, cleaned all the window sills, dusted, cooked, etc.  Can you believe it?  The best part- I did not need to ask for anything.  She just did it.  Thank you  so much mom.  I feel a little saner today than I have in months.
Thank you dad for sharing her with us- I know it makes your life harder…so thanks for sharing!  Chris said we may need to work out some custody agreement with you. Haha!


Naveen still (a few days after mom left) looks upstairs to see if Grandma is coming from her room.  It actually is sad to see him do that because I know that he really liked having mom around to spoil him.
