Hello, 15!

 Here’s to my first born. 

The first one I raised, 

but also the one I grew up with alongside.

The one who got the tenderfoot 

version of me as Mimme.

The one who had to stumble with me

and even sometimes was my pick-me-up. 

The one who showed me 

what unconditional love truly looks like.

I know it probably wasn’t always easy for you, 

as I sorted through all of the messy first times. 

But I hope when you look back,

you understand 

that I did the best I could.

And that I loved you with every piece of me.

Through it all…

I hope you’re as proud to be my child

As I am to be your mother ♥️

And how best can we welcome chapter 15 than having Mummum-Dada who came all the way to be by your side on your special day?

Happy 15th birthday, my Shreya!

May Thakur always be your guiding light.
