Happy Birthday Dada! <3
You were the first one I saw when I arrived, You stayed up nights with momma and me! You burped me and changed me, and hugged me and carried me! Every minute of every day, I know you got my back! I love our silly giggles, and times spent dancing! All the times we blew bubbles, our bath time rituals, And the books you read to me a million times, The times we counted and sang some rhymes.. From sitting, crawling, walking and my ABCs, You’ve been my teacher guiding me, Mama says ohno! But someday I hope to be like you, Big, and strong, smart, kind and…

Bubba’s Diary – PP Visits Doha
So! You know what happened recently? My parents friend, Preethi aunty came to visit us in Doha! She stayed with me and played with me for about nine days! It was a pretty fun time being tourists in my own town! So, PP aunty came from Bahrain. And poor thing – she had to travel for nine hours to come see me! How sweet no? We helped get a pre-approved visa from Qatar and then she had to travel via Kuwait since there are no direct flights between Bahrain and Qatar anymore! PP Visits Doha – Welcome! She arrived late evening on Friday, and she tried to steal my mango…

Bubba’s Diary – Outstanding Oman!
You guys know by now that my parents love dragging me here, there and everywhere no? Just when I think things are quiet and we are settling down, they go off on another adventure and drag me with them! Mind you, I am not complaining! It is fun I must admit. And our latest escapade wasn’t too far. It was just a 45 minute flight away – to Outstanding Oman! One Thursday evening, we went off to the airport. Frankly I was surprised that we had only one suitcase. I though momma forgot a few suitcases! I mean, you know how we travel right? You have read about my other…

Bubs Diary – the year that was!
Dear Diary, Can I be the odd one out and say I loved 2016? I know many people want this year to end. So Do I. But I did love 2016. After all I was born this year! So I declare 2016 to be the year of awesomeness. In January this year, I absolutely did not even imagine that I would be evicted from my home so quickly – I thought I had a few months. No no, I was not premature. In fact I was over due. By end of February, I was brought out! I fought to stay in, mind you! After all, my home was warm, and…

Bub’s Diary – India Bound..
Dear Diary, Wooohooo. It was time for another trip. And this time it is to the country which my parents call the motherland – India. I have only heard people talk about it, so I was very excited to go! And obviously, knowing my mom and dad, I knew for sure it would be a super packed schedule. And ofcourse, momma books tickets for Thursday night, which means there is just no time to breathe or relax after nursery, and we have to pack up and leave in a rush rush rush. I never understood why my folks travel like they are moving countries? And they blame me! They are…

Bub’s Diary – Trips and Travels..
Dear Diary, Even before I turned five month old, I had been to four countries: Qatar, where I was born, Bahrain, my mommy’s home, and UK to visit aunts and uncles! And yes I saw the Abu Dhabi airport too! Pretty cool eh! I think I love this whole travelling business, because I go with half a suitcase full of my stuff, and come back with atleast one more full suitcase of toys, clothes and whatnot BAHRAIN And everywhere I go, there are all these people who come to see me, and play with me! It really is a lot of fun. When I went to Bahrain, all of momma’s…

Bub’s Diary – First Days
Dear Diary, Today was a tough day. I could not sleep very well last night, and my momma and dada could not sleep well either. And in the morning, after my milky, I dirtied the sheets so momma and dada were late to office as well. I feel bad but what can I do? To tell them when I want to poopie, or am hungry and want, but I can’t. I do try though – in the only way I know – by crying. And momma and dada are awesome because they try and help me in every way. But sometimes they can’t understand what I want, and I don’t…
