I wish I could

sing ! I never felt the need for it before and did not regret having a rather not so trained or tuned voice. I always wanted to learn to play an instrument but not singing. But now after Jillu is born, I really feel the need. I want to sing to her properly, especially, when I put her to bed, I want to be able to sing all those nice thaalaatu (lullaby) songs. Now, I envy all those who can sing even moderately well, mmmm... sigh.. I have to make do with the cassettes and cds..

every mom feels d same I guess....a friend of mine tried singing lullaby to her son(10 months old I guess), the baby started laughing uncontrollably :D (usually his patti puts him to sleep, and her absence has resulted in this comedy)

@Swetha : mmm. Fortunately, when I sang to my girl when she was about 10 months old, she used to say, "mmm, mmm" prompting me to continue. But being a good mom, I stopped singing to her because i didn't want to torture her:) My MIL now occasionally sings to her.
