Modern Maids


We live in Apartment Complex here, and its is really amusing to watch maids bringing kids, to the park in the evenings. U must be wondering why can't they?! Well!(Gulp!!)its difficult for moms like me, to be found as the odd one out, among these modern maids. Enter the apartment parks in Bangalore(or for that matter any Cosmopoliton City) and its difficult to distinguish Moms from Maids. Why ??? Coz these gals r truly Accessorised and fully loaded with the latest Gadgets in town. They come in all shapes and sizes but all in all ,I must say, they follow the latest Fashion trends. Why shud I mention this ?? I shud say Hats off to these Modern maids!! who take in the place of the Child's Real Mom. The Child's Mommy and Daddy are high salaried IT professionals, who wud pay any amout jst to get their Precious kid all the earthly blessings...(which parents wudn't??). They Shower these modern maids with stuff from Mobiles to the latest Salwar Suits. And few of these maids own even a two-wheeler......
The other day a maid from Hyderabad came to Converse with me!...she shocked me by speaking very fluent English!! ..and to add to my "Shock of the century" she asked me if I were a maid or a mom!!....but i must say,I can't blame her cos "Moms in the Park" aren't Trendy any more.
