My name is Zaina, and this is my story.
My Mom & Dad have just returned from their vacation in Maldives. One of the purpose of the vacations was to have some time to themselves. They both have been working very hard lately and truly deserve the vacation.
October 2008, Diwali is just around the corner and my Dadi is renovating her boutique and wants to start shop before the peak Diwali season. Things are really busy for all my family right now. My Dad is opening his new office. Both my parents being Architects have taken a key interest in both projects and are really busy with the proceedings. Finally before Diwali, both projects are finished and my parents breathe a sigh of relief and look forward to the Diwali break.
5 days of doing sweet nothings during Diwali 2008, and a pregnancy test on October 26 confirms that I am on my way. Both my parents and my grandparents are super excited. After all my parents have been at it since the last 2 years.
Today, my Dad smoked his Cuban cigar which he got from a friend in Dallas about 1.5 years ago and had been saving it for this special day. Although I realize how excited he is, he should quit smoking.
The next day a visit to my doctor Mitsuben at Me & Mummy confirms the findings of the previous day and I am OFFICIALLY on my way to the world....
