We got a chance to get hold of the mother-daughter duo,ChhaviMittal & Areeza Hussein as a part of Mother's Day Celebration. There is no doubt mothers are guardian angels for their children, always loving and supporting them.
A mother's bond with kids is always special. And when it comes to daughter it seems to spark up as the child grows. How would you describe your journey as a mother?
My journey as a mother has been one with a lot of ups and downs and learning curves. When I set out to be a mother, little did I know that it was going to be the most challenging journey by far? I feel motherhood dynamics change depending on whether you have a boy or a girl, and whether the first child is a girl or a boy. With my first born being a girl, I have experienced transforming into a friend from being a mother. Areeza fulfills me in every way and also drives me up the wall. But the best part of being her mother is that I constantly learn new things about her, as well as the new generation, as well as new perspectives towards different things. It's always a pleasure to have a meaningful conversation with her and do various activities with her too. With Arham on the other hand, the experience is very different. He is a boy and I can see that he is less touchy about things. He is clingy and affectionate, but also can play for hours by himself. He has grown up to be independent faster, but I feel that could also be because he is the second born and learns by example.
You have always been open about your battle with cancer. How did you go about explaining to your daughter about it? What was her reaction and how did she handle it?
