Jankee Parekh Instagram – It’s been 3 weeks since my husband has resumed work with his newest television show. I couldn’t have been happier & proud to see him do what he loves the most. However, after spending the whole of last year together and the last 6 golden months with our little Sufi, I suddenly feel a void with his absence at home. He leaves for shoot early in the morning and returns at night. He gets to see Sufi barely for a few minutes in the morning before he leaves and once he’s back home Sufi is fast asleep. I miss him not being around Sufi. Not being there when he clapped for the first time, crawled all around the house on his tummy for the first time, ate beetroot for the first time and spat it all out. I miss that we cannot share these beautiful priceless moments of our son growing up together. And especially now when he’s hitting new milestones every few days. Having said that, I know in my heart how much Nakuul misses being around him too. Probably more. Sufi and I have now started video calling Dadda everyday and they giggle and talk in their own language for 2 mins (only 2 mins ‘cause Mumma doesn’t allow any more screen time to him). At home, I keep talking to him about Dadda in all our conversations. I want him to know who his Dadda is, even if he’s not physically present. Every night when Nakuul is back from work, we spend an hour talking about Sufi and all the cool things he did and learnt each day. Then we watch and rewatch his photos and videos that I have captured in the day before we hit the bed. No, I am not complaining. I just wish we could have some more time together for ourselves and with Sufi. But then again, what he does impacts so many lives in such wonderful ways, that it feels like if we only had some more balance, life would be close to perfect. Does anyone else feels that way, or is it just me ranting? 🙃 P.S – Last Sunday was a bit different from our routine when Dadda surprised us & landed up at home in the middle of the afternoon at 3pm from set. The three of us spent the whole evening on Sufi’s playmat and it was a perfect Sunday. @nakuulmehta 💕 @babysufim 📸 @ayushdas . #SufiandMaa #motherhood #babiesofinstagram
