On the 15th of January this year our group, affectionately called ‘kutumb’ (family in Guajrati), welcomed it’s newest member. Viral and Vaishali’s new born son – Agastya.
Viral was the first of our group to get married and bring his wife into our lives. And they in turn have brought the first member of the kutumb’s second generation to us.
Since Viral is like a brother to me, I consider Vaishali to be a sister–in–law and their son my nephew. And as any proud aunt, I was thrilled when I first saw him on the day he was born. I can’t begin to describe the joy I felt to see that beautiful little face, so pink and so tiny (this is him when he was 5 hours old).
As all the friends stared at him, we couldn’t resist painting a picture of what he would be like when he grew up. What it would be like for us to see him go through the stages of his life that we have been through. We hoped that he would find friends like we all are. People he would spend a life time with.I bet he is going to be spoiled rotten by the whole kutumb and we are going to enjoy every moment of it.
"Welcome to our world Agastya! We promise to make it as wonderful for you as we can."

Last year was filled with babies. 4 friends - and I mean close friends, not even colleagues - became parents. I've tried to look at it positively. I mean, there must be some reason I'm the only non-parent they keep inviting to their dos.

Kaguma, Agastya is positively adorable. Do keep us updated on all his milestones.
take care
