We usually say "amma we want this", "amma come here", amma amma amma.... But have we ever wondered how magical the word amma is? I actually dint realise the power of the word amma and the complete feeling it gives till recently. I gave birth to a baby girl 5 months before, as soon as she was born all my relatives and friends rushed to me and said "Ahhhhhhh she looks like a princess, hey shobi she is your xerox copy, she is your rubber stamp" and stuff. I felt very proud on hearing people say she looks just like me. It is a great feeling when people say she resembles you in all her features. But all this lasted only for few months as there was a continuous debate over her resemblance. At one point of time it just faded away and people stopped talking about her resemblance. Life was just moving on and each day taught me a new experience on child growth. One day as i was watching tv she cried bitterly as i neared to lif t her she started telling ammaaaa in her cries i could not control my joy. As soon as i lifted her she stopped crying and started telling AMMA, that was exactly when i could experience the fullest joy and the magic of the word Amma. From that day she came to understand that on uttering the word Amma there will be a person to meet her needs. I really wonder how great god is, it is really facinating when you see a baby grown each and every stage and see the various types of developments they attain. Till that day i felt amma was yet another common word all use but when those words came from my baby's mouth i could experience the magic it made within me. Infact i felt so responsible and proud to have become a mother. i guess this is the driving force which makes all children close to the mother rather than anyone else one earth. I really wonder how these infants recognise new faces, i have noticed it a number of times in my baby. If there is someone new apart from the people at home lifting her she immediately says amma. I really wonder how they get to know that if there is any sort of discomfort it is amma who will resolve it for them. On seeing such small small incidents made my belief even more strong on god and i feel babies are the best creation by god may it be an animal or human.
