Our story has only just begun Avyaan π―π§Ώ
15.09.2021
We are deeply grateful to many good people who took very good care of you Avyaan in the first 4 months of your life. Dr. Hari, Dr.Jui, Dr. Pradeep, Dr.Anish and all the nurses and @suryahospitals under the able leadership of Dr.Awasthi and Dr.Kabra ππ»ππ»ππ» We will be forever grateful for the care and love you received from all of them.
Dr. Nozer and Rajneet our baby is finally home πππ»β€οΈ And this would not have been possible without your response and timely care. A lifetime of gratitude to you ππ»ππ»ππ»
Avyaan, you have taught us humility, grace, and the power of prayer π― Stay blessed baby. You complete us in every way β€οΈπ§Ώ
All our family and friends this time would not have been half as comforting without your strength and prayers. Thank YOU all. You know who you are ππ»ππ»ππ»
Have to add, to all the parents out there who are coping with their premies being in NICU, love, strength and prayers for you and your little oneβs. India
I used to share this with every new parent β€οΈπ―π« Discovering, learning and growing together. What fun π @vaibhav.rekhi
βAnd a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, Speak to us of Children.
And he said:
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Lifeβs longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archerβs hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.β
– From βThe Prophetβ by Kahlil Gibran (Knopf, 1923) India

Happiness is a butterfly β€οΈππ» #TuesdayThoughts
While one person can inspire others to change the world, the effect of a corporation creating products that are environment friendly truly brings about the urgent change that is the need of the hour. I am thrilled to join hands with the Beco Team, to live the cause of ‘conscious capitalism’. @beco.india has been my favourite brand from the day they’ve launched, their 100% plant-based products are not just good for the environment but also for you and your family. It’s about time we say good bye to harmful chemicals and adopt a greener, cleaner and healthier way of living. Together, we aim to make this a lifestyle for you because it’s not difficult anymore, itβs now easier than ever to make better choices β π³ π
Make the switch, and do try this at home. Let’s Be-eco.π
