An addition to the family is one of the best things in world .. So today when my aunt delivered a boy I could not help but wonder how special it is , the moment after the long wait. From the minute she was taken into the operation theater till the minute we got the first glacé I saw a million emotions, expectations hopes in everyone's eyes. I could not help but observe the changes .. The restless in the body language of the to be father , from the way he held her hand and let her go with a peck on the cheek assuring the to be mom not to worry its going to fine and then sitting there in silence in a room full of people nodding his head silently if asked something or occasionally passing a smile and continuously watching the time, taking his cell in his hand after every ping but still not replying to any messages. There was anxiety, there was nervousness, they was the desire to hold the baby in the hand. The room had a lot of other people too the to be grand parents were happiest of all, excited to tell the baby stories, play with him, occasionally telling each other it's going to be all right the mother and baby are going to be fine. Sometimes arguing if the baby is going to look like the mom or the dad , he will be inheriting the properties from the maternal side or the paternal aide family. Then walked in the aunt who came in with chart and figures , a whole list of time slots and the raashi the baby will have at what time of birth. It looked funny to me but them it was fun we already started to short list names some we laughed on, a few would some name and someone would hate it . This was like an activity everyone got involved in. And then suddenly there was a knock . It was a nurse who said that the to be father should now go to the operation theater, the baby will arrive soon. He got up in reflex action with a sparkle on his face, there was a different charm and he almost ran behind the nurse. Everyone got excited and there was silence everyone was waiting. But in the middle of everything there was a lil 6 year old princess sitting in one corner of the room, shying away from every one moving from daddy's la to dadu's lap. Playing with her Barbie doll and looking here and there waiting for her sibling to arrive. Her expression dint change anytime until we got a call its a boy. The baby has arrived I missed those filmy deliveries where in everyone will listen to the loud baby cries from inside the operation theatre, it was so silly but this was the thought in my mind then :p . Now came the turn there were drum rolls the baby arrived there was a crowd of people to hold him, to take a glance , the lil girl was searching for his tiny hands hands and feet when he was wrapped up in a green colored cloth clad from head to toe , the only thing we could see was his face brimming up with innocence personifying cuteness.

But he is a bundle of joy
He will get every toy
The sweet lil boy :)
