There’s never a dull moment in the Shah household. With our little munchkin (not so little anymore, actually) running around, there is always something going on. Life pre-Anokhi was super busy (or, so I thought), but, post-Anokhi, busy has a whole new meaning for us. I wouldn’t have it any other way. When Anokhi was a baby, we were [...]
