As I creep closer to that milestone birthday… (Shhhhh! Four – oh!) it would be silly not to reminisce, and sat at home with my parents… Well that’s a perfect place!
A 6 month old Ritu!!!
Ritu hitting her first year!
Sweet sixteen!!!
Forget Educating Rita, I give you… Graduating Ritu…
Yes… All these pictures proudly displayed around the house!
Oh and a bridal Ritu too… A BIG milestone!!
And just in case you forgot… That’s the Ritu of the present! 😜
But I Smile Anyway...

So you´re Indian then? I thought you where from the U.S. Seems a lot of bloggers from India read me, and actually have gotten to know quite a lot about the culture. And guess what, all the bloggers that come from that part of the world are….women! What can I do,you know, it´s normal, I´m a Spanish Brad Pitt……
Anyways, happy birthday whenever it comes, and by the way, you still look beautiful my blogger friend.
