The Two pillars of my life

A very important term we have in our life is called "Parents". Two very important persons in our life who are solely responsible for giving  us the beautiful life.

For me, they are my MA and BABA, on whom I owe my life and without them I am incomplete in every sense. They have made me the person I am today.
So today I am here, to write some words on my dearest Mom and Dad.
My Parents had a love marriage and soon I came into their world. I am their only child so anyone can understand how much lovable I am to them. My mom used to teach in college in the remote villages in Asansol and my dad used work in a publication house. Life is quiet different if you belong to a working parents...at least those days as now it is very common. So, I have spend lot of time in school, creche before coming home everyday.
I came to know from my mom that when I was barely 2 months old she took me to her workplace and will keep me in the staff room and go for taking classes. Even when I was in school dad used to take me to his office the days I had holidays and I will be there with him till evening. For me it was a delight as I will be sitting in pool of books and will read them without any interference. I think my love for books come from here. I could feel how they have struggled and worked to give me a good childhood. They admitted me to the school having creche so that I can be their after the school is over, have my food, relax and sleep and then study. They have taken care about my desires and wishes too. I was admitted to singing and drawing classes so that my cultural life also develops. I still remember my mom used to bring toys and candies for me while coming back in train. She used to be very tired but never got angry listening to my stupid questions or an elaborate description of any incident in my school. On holidays and weekends she used to prepare my favorite dishes with all her energy and enthusiasm. My dad was my playmate and we used to play football, cricket along with me. He was the one who taught to play badminton and carom and will be so happy if I ever win playing with friends.
Let me tell you one incident, there was a cultural program in our complex and I was singing and solo song there. I was just 8 at that time. My dad went for a tour and was coming back that day. While entering the gate, he heard that someone is singing. When he saw that it was me, he was so happy and proud that he couldn't hold his tears. He told mom to get me admitted to the singing class next day. I was not a brilliant student but still each year after my final report, inspite of whatever marks I get, my dad always brings a gift for me.

Every year there will be a grand celebration on my birthdays. I remember my mom and dad used to prepare the return gift for my friends the night before the day and I will be sleeping peacefully. Every thing will be so perfect on that day starting from cake to food to decorations and these two people will work so enthusiastically to make it special.

You will be amazed to know that I never got beaten by them. Their way of bringing me up was so unique that I have understood the value of life so beautifully. They have imparted me knowledge about the value of money, life, respect and many more. They felt so proud when anyone praised me about my behavior or skills.

My relation with my mom and dad is so friendly. I can share anything with them. On holidays we used sit together and chat for hours.
I just remember one funny incident, let me share here. On every Diwali, my dad used to bring lots of crackers for me. But I used to be so scared of those loud bombs and crackers that ever year I will down with high fever and my mom and dad used to burn those crackers all by themselves. But they never stopped buying them in spite of me getting fever every year.

I used to see my friends pleading for things to their parents and getting rejected. I never begged in front of my parents for such things and with time I got everything I wished to have happily without begging and pleading before them. Be it a mobile phone or a camera or anything. I was so happy buying gifts for them when I got my first salary from my first job. The smile in their face made my day.

For me, my mom and dad is so special that I fear a lot thinking about losing them. Now I stay so far but manages time from my busy schedule to call them everyday. I miss them a lot and I know they too miss me. But thanks to the electronic media that now I can see them whenever I want to.
I really don't know whether they will read this but I want to tell them that I love and respect them unconditionally and always want to be their little girl MAMMO (they call me by this name).

Love you Ma, Love you Baba
