The Reader's Cafe - Train of Thought

Well, the topic which I have chosen this time is one of my favourite topics and close to my heart. Yeah! I am going to write about the kids (Little munchkins) today. Kids are one of the best things that happen in one's life. Taking your kid in your hand for the first time is one such magical moment which cannot beat any other thing in life. Nothing can be more special than this. We get all the care and love when we are carrying the baby for 9 months.  The real challenge starts after the baby is born.

Now that most of the IT professionals are working from home, they tend to do overtime even if it is not require...

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor, nutritionist, Fitness or a gym instructor. This write-up is purely based on my experience and whatever I have observed in my surrounding. It is just my opinion.

The schedule generally includes preparing three meals a day, cleaning, getting kids ready for school, packing tiffin boxes, ironing clothes, handling office work, attending meetings, picking up kids from school/daycare, dropping kids to tuition, spending quality time with kids and other miscellaneous work. Despite having housemaid, we will have to manage many other household activities on our own. We really must do multitasking to manage everything efficiently. I wonder how mothers from our previo...
