Four months of USA.... Of away from home.... Of closer to home!

August 10 2012, I came to USA, to stay.... This was just 4 months back.... Yet there are Years when you'll remain the same.... And days when you'll grow for no other reason than you have to..... Adolescence comes not once but again and again, visibly or not does not count.I have learnt to feed my family, be a mother, and even be a wife! India was girl-friend stuff, but US is serous business... Scrubbing floors, wringing towels, drying clothes, separating colours, lunch dates and dinner parties, no maid or hope of one.... But through it all you realize what you are capable of, and what your family means to you... That your daughter of 5 can and does help clean her toy space, that the most unconcerned man you knew can and does make poor efforts to help, and poorer jokes on not wanting to... And that as much as you do not like this having to grow up business.... You know you are being fine tuned to show what you are made up of!
