Aaja Bachpan?

We have all read many variants of the line 'Aaja bachpan ek baar phir' from different poets time and again......But is bachpan worth giving a call?
Well for me, NO!!! I am more than happy ...

C'mon guys being carefree and all is ok.....but just imagine, if childhood returns to us with the age of less than a year....we wouldnt even be communicating properly then. I see my 6 month old son cry for something....but only he would know what he is crying for...He might be having an ant biting him, and we think he has stomach ache and try to soothe him out of that....GOD no...not this stage of bachpan for me!

What if it returns at a stage when I am just going to school....well I would hate going there and would still be forced to.....no..I dont want this stage to return too!

What if it returns at a teenage.....hmm..most dangerous..whatever you say...ppl would just ignore saying..teenage!!!..not this stage either...

well after this age.....I dont call it bachpan.....

If you ever want childhood to return....dont call for it (not that it would listen to us ;)) just re-live it with a child growing.....and thats exactly what I am doing right now....
Never ever have I been so busy and yet so relieved in my life before.
So...this would mean a break to my blogging for sometime, as I gear up to catch up on some responsibilities....
I will have to learn to control my temper....else I cant get my child do it.
I will have to make sure I dont miss to brush my teeth at night, else I cant get him do it!
I cant just lie down and watch TV.....else he will do it too..
I will have to control my urge for chocolates....else....
GOD....being a parent is sooo difficult!!! Give me the strength..

Praying...
