The magic created by his extra chromosome or because it’s him.


Dear readers,

I understand that being a parent is a constant struggle between loving your child to death and wanting to pull off all your hair one by one, but what makes this journey worth all the frustration is this amazing child that calls you mom or dad. I am so lucky to have Laksh as my first born and I do not mean that because he has Down syndrome but because he is an amazing little boy. 

He loves with all his heart and I understand that could be due to the magic created by his extra chromosome or just because it’s him. He laughs easily and makes others laugh with him, and I understand that could be due to the magic created by his extra chromosome or just because it’s him. 

He is easy to forgive and move on, and I understand that could be due to the magic created by his extra chromosome or just because it’s him. He drives me insane with his shenanigans, and I understand that could be due to the magic created by his extra chromosome or just because it’s him. 

He is the kindest sweetest boy, and I understand that could be due to the magic created by his extra chromosome or just because it’s him.

My dear son

My heart is always worried for my son and his well being. I know that he has a long road ahead and life can be hard some times but all we can do is make sure to raise a child that is confident and believes in himself/herself. I am writing this open letter to him so when he grows up, he can read this and hopefully understand how much he is loved and valued. And how much for an amazingly brilliant person he is. Please read below.

My dear son,

I feel like everything in life happens for a reason, and my son you have been the greatest gift that God has given me. I’m doing my best to raise you to be strong, nurturing, loving, brave and self confident. I am shouting your worth everyday so people don’t limit you from being the best version of yourself and achieve your greatest potential. They say that parents are suppose to be teachers for their kids but you my darling Laksh have taught me and your daddy so much.

Joy comes from the places you least expect it, and for us it comes from simple things like watching you play with your favorite car or reading your favorite book. Laksh you are a huge inspiration for me and everyday I learn and grow as a human being just by being near you. That’s the best part about being a mom for me. Being the person who gets that love from you, that love which is so pure and so unconditional that it makes you fierce.

So in the end my son, all I want and hope for you is to be a nice and kind human being who touches the lives of different people and makes them happy.  May God bless you with everything you ever wanted and deserve.

Happy 2nd birthday to my lifeline



Oh where have the last two years gone? It  seems like it was yesterday when I was laying in the hospital bed waiting in eager anticipation of meeting you.


This is your second year in our life my darling Laksh, but you already have succeeded to change our lives and make it so complete and happy. You are our lifetime happiness.  Baby, you are the main reason which makes your mom and dad smile and also in some way the world around you. We can’t resist your sweet charm and neither can the people that come across you. You my sweet angel are a total heart stealer.


I love watching you grow, my sweet little boy. Your personality is amazing. You are so funny, smart, and so adorable. You have everyone wrapped around you little finger, especially your mummy. You are such a narrative shifter and I love that in mere 24 months, you have made such a difference in the way people see differently abled people.

You my sweet baby, rock the extra chromosome so well that it makes me wonder, why did I ever worry about anything. You are my guiding star, my love, my reason for being, and my Laksh. Mummy and daddy hope you achieve everything you ever want in life and much much more. Always be kind and happy.

Baby, we wish you a very happy birthday and we love you so much!
