I am sure, all of you have planned your kid’s summer vacations- enrolment in a 2 week summer camp with lots of art and craft activities, one or two weeks at nani-nana house, a week stay at the nearby hill station and then back to the grind of finishing the holiday homework just in time before schools reopen.

Parenthood is blissful, yet the road that leads to it and goes beyond is never smooth. When I had my baby (he is 6 now)
*Infant toilet training* is a debatable topic. Some parents find it unnecessary. But some parents (yours truly included), swear by it.
