Happy Birthday Siya - 5 years

Dear Siya,
It is been a wonderful experience from 6th April, 2005 to 6th April, 2010. These five years, I have truly understood that it is the baby that gives birth to a mom! There are no words that I can write here that would be able to express what you are to us, but I still feel like just writing them anyways (we want you to read once you grow up). From the day we knew that I was expecting, we realized that God had chosen us as your family. From then, we have been talking about you all the time. In spite of the fact that neither mom nor dad are around through the day, you are a part of us wherever we go. I am proud to be known as Siya's mom more than Purwa Jain herself.
I still remember 6th April, 2005. Your mom has always been afraid of doctors, medicines and hospitals. When I was told that day, I will be undergoing a surgery, for the first time, I was not scared but decided to fight back to get you in this world! After seeing you, I was peaceful and calm. I stopped worrying about me and just was overwhelmed with joy.
By 6th April, 2006, you had learned by then to talk, walk, laugh, play and not to forget fall :-). You had achieved all your milestones well and much before time. I would just enjoy seeing you for hours and hours and learn from you. The energy, the enthusiasm, the curiosity to know everything around has always been a inspiration for me.
By 6th April, 2007, you grew up to a complete sporty girl. You started to recognize those flash cards and words and pretty much knew almost 300 patterns! Remarkable right! You will read this someday and feel extremely proud about it. And so is mom today. You also started going to playschool and that is when we realized that you love socializing. While all your friends were crying on the first day, you were pretty ok to be away from your mom for few hours.
By 6th April, 2008, we had to decide your school. You again did pretty well there in your interview and again mom and dad did not have to struggle much for the same. This year I had tried innovative ways to handle your tantrums (bird language, etc). What I liked most about you the most this year (rather what I learned from you) was if you made a mistake, you would accept it. You would come to me and apologize and I would be all geared up again to do something to hear the word "sorry" (mean mommy, i know).
By 6th April, 2009, we mainly tried to focus on your interest area be it dancing, skating, cycling, etc. You started schooling this year and as usual was pretty smooth start. You performed on the stage umpteen number of times this year and also got a good number of certificates and medals. You would just not settle for less than what you were worth and that really put me into thought many a times. I am really not sure if that is right or wrong but I surely know that if you have to learn from your failures too.
By 6th April, 2010, you have grown up as a extremely talkative and a supportive daughter. Getting water when I come back from college or office, making sure I sleep well, making sure you talk to me every afternoon when in office, and many such incidences just get tears to my eyes. You have been so caring and so adorable. You have started to write and read and this is basically your first entry to the world of information. You have shown interest in reading newspapers and books and always is looking forward to outings to Crosswords. All that I would like to tell you on your birthday today is (of course told to me by one of my friends a few days back) your future is decided by choices and not by the chances that you take along the way. Everyone in this world (including us) will have a opinion but the matter of fact is that only you can decide what can make you happy.
And always remember our world revolves around you. We love you, we are very proud of you and we do accept that you are growing up. Just know that you will always be our baby.
Happy Birthday Siya and God Bless!
