This post has been long over due..

There are these scenes in movies/serials in which when a baby is born and it holds someone's finger in its tiny hand, the person looks so overwhelmed with emotion. I used to wonder, isn't looking at the baby, or holding her in your arms enough to generate that emotion in you?
But then, my wonderful, lovely niece taught me better :) The day she was born and i was going to the hospital to see her, I was certain , that being the emotional fool I am, I would definitely cry when i see her and my sister. But miraculously I did not. I held her and still i did not. But when Mahika was around 15 days old and she grabbed my finger, I felt a little drop of tear rolling down my eyes :) That's a feeling I'll remember all my life.
