Time Really Flies!

Time really flies! It was just sixteen years back when Shantanu (our son) was born, we could hear his first cry, started crawling and his first step towards his grand-parents.

Time really flies! I do remember the first day of his play-school when he was so reluctant and hesitant. He gradually adjusted himself and started pestering my Dad for all the candies & chocolates. He used to get away with all his demands of getting a specific breed of mango in the scorching heat of 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

Time really flies! Shantanu’s act of posing like a ‘Hanuman ji’ still gives ripples and his dance moves were real funny (maybe only to his parents!)

And now, he is a grown up boy, responsible, normally quiet except with his friends!!! He has taken a toll on himself while adjusting to his Dad’s movement from India – adjusted well to his new friends, excelled in his sports and academic fields and made all of us proud.

Time really flies! He has passed his driving test and all set to have his own driving license. It’s a pleasure to see him growing by leaps and bounds and I’m sure all of us will pass through this phase and enjoy the same.

Well, we all strappingly believe that “CHILD IS THE FATHER OF MAN”

Good article. You and Pratibha have done a fine job raising your son. Shantanu has grown into a fine young man, and from here on he will continue to soar to dizzying heights of success and rectitude.
Children afterall a reflection of us, albeit a better impression. And thats how it ought to be.
