That’s not a typo. Fourteen carefully researched schools, each promising holistic development, value-based education, and world‑class infrastructure—apparently all designed to politely reject us. And...

The Daughter Who Comes Every Christmas

The Daughter Who Comes Every Christmas Some daughters are born into your arms. And some arrive once a year — wrapped in winter jackets, jet lag, and a love that fills the house instantly. She is my bhabhi’s daughter — my niece. But to my daughter Kiku, she is so much more than a cousin. They live abroad and visit us only once a year, during Christmas holidays. That’s why Christmas isn’t just a festival in our home. It’s a reunion. It’s warmth. It’s waiting that finally ends. Two Girls , One ...
