Mamma Perfectionist in a trouble

Shanaya was pleased to see her mother when she arrived to stay back with her for a week.  After hugging her Shanaya tears dropped, this was unusual as Shanaya and her parents lived in same city and would meet often.  Shanaya’s mother Madhulika sensed something was not right with her daughter. Madhulika was a lady with a strong aura and was leading professor of soft skills before her retirement.

Shanaya’s son Yuvin made Madhulika visits her daughter more often these days, but this visit was not for Yuvin it was for Shanaya, as she could make out that Shanaya is worried over something and was not sharing. Madhulika was waiting for the right time to talk to her daughter.  Shanaya very carefully prepared meals for her 15-month-old toddler and instructed her helper for each task with minute details. Her mother knew how perfectionist is Shanaya but some thing was taking toll on her.

When Yuvin was taking afternoon nap Shanaya sat with her mother to chat and simultaneously switched on laptop to book tickets and hotels for their upcoming vacation with her son for the first time after Yuvin was born.

Madhulika asked Shanaya, “What happened Sanu”, she called Sanaya Sanu with love.

Shanaya took few seconds and said “Nothing Ma”, and peeped into laptop with more confusion.

Book Review: How I TAUGHT my GRANDMOTHER to READ and other stories by Sudha Murthy

Reading stories of great personalities and understanding the thought process behind it always tops my list when I read autobiographies. But my daughter is young to read and understand such philosophies, so I gifted this book to her on Christmas. And guess what I also could relate with each of the story in the book.

What’s Book About:

The book ‘How I taught my Grandmother to read and other stories’ written by Sudha Murthy is a collection of 24 short stories, each packed with bundle of wisdom. I feel people like Sudha Murthy has so much to convey in each story that one can take out at least 2 morals from each story. Stories from her personal note are so interesting read that one could follow the path of her journey to be a person like her.
