They were four in number. Two pure brown, one jet black and the other, brown with white spots; but all of them with shiny black noses. But of course the chuckles heard when the four puppies slipped between the curves of their mother, together were the cutest. And their mother...quietly... enjoys her parenthood!

Parenthood- a desire realised, carries with itself the greatest sense of obligation and finally, desires to be realised. An experience out of this world; a feeling indescribable and above all, a new relationship born, giving way to a life long commitment! The sentiment cannot be limited to life only after one is a begotten parent. Haven’t most of us experienced this joy when we got our dolls married to another? Didn’t we go through this immense pleasure when the branch we planted bore the first flower? More closely, is the peace of mind achieved when a sibling we lessoned scores well, different?

The careful selection of colors, a definite portrait in mind, the gentle strokes and so is Parenthood-A creation of the masterpiece. Similarly, this bonding brings with itself not only the desires but is accompanied by loads of expectations and the little heart which marks the onset of parenthood! Apparently, the parental hope that they shall be parented in return is based on the confidence that the best parenthood is delivered. What should be accomplished by all means is not the expectation that one is equally returned, but this very sense of belonging, which embodies itself in a form we might not know what to name.

It’s so rightly said that the most invaluable things on this planet are the ones available free of cost!And, even before we come to know about it, the unearthly feeling blesses us and disappears. Hence, is it only moulding our creation as per our will, parenthood? Or does it include shaping ourselves to fit into the little frames created by our creation, too?

Is it not us but our parenthood that the child adores?
