Tiff's First Playdate!

So Tiffany and her new friend Shubh had fun on their first play date. I was wondering how she would interact for the first time with another child. I was surprisingly shocked to see that she was more interested in what cool toys he had to play with. Shubh was more interested in trying to get her face, it was adorable. I was happy to see though that they both did very well interacting with each other. This gives me hope that she will be a nice, friendly and good child. I will do my best as a mother to make sure she is kind to everyone as she grows. I'm excited to be able to tell her that her first friend was a young boy from India and I hope that over the years their friendship will grow and they both will learn many things from each other!

New Friend

This week I had the opportunity to help someone cross off something on their bucket list. A new dear friend of mine Nidhi is from India. She told me since she has been a young girl she has always wanted to get a tattoo. In India this is not something that is typically acceptable or common. A couple weeks ago she noticed that I had a tattoo on my wrist and asked me if I would take her to get one. I said of course no problem, so we tossed around ideas of what she would like and she decided on a beautiful butterfly with her husband and sons name. As you can see in the picture it turned out lovely and she was MORE than excited. She is so happy that now when her son is older she can say, "I have this tattoo from America to remember my time there"! I have learned so much about her culture and I still have so many questions, she is such an intersting sweet woman and I am so thankful I have had the opportunity to become her friend.

Sometimes it's crazy when you think about how people are put in your life and the life long friendships that come from it. It's amazing what can grow from a simple hello!
