Moms In C Suites Treat The Other Well

Treat Each Other Well. 

That’s the first step to being super moms in c-suites (Wink, wink)

When a couple treats each other with respect, know that love will grow. (Hmm...)

It takes two to tango. I say to the young men and women: love as you want to be loved. This is true for the wife who is a mom ‘only’ and the mom at work. Teach your boys as much as you do your girls. (Preachy, preachy) (Wink, wink)

This strain of thought is as perceived from a relationship I grew up observing. 

They were poles apart but neither sought to change the other. Nobody was more superior than the other. They had different friends, had the freedom to exist but made decisions together. When they came back home, they spent the evening cracking jokes, making joint decisions and catching up of the day’s events, all, while the children watched happily. 

And in between, they fought, too, without moving the courts! (Hee-haw!)

The lives of moms in c-suites begins this way: first your home and then your work. 

Life is not more fulfilling without the other

One is not ‘more equal’ than the other

How about you?

Happy Budgeting With Moms in C-Suites

Tip #1 - His First Pay Check


It is customary in certain parts of India to give a month's worth of grocery to the bride so her marriage kicks off on a happy, stress-free note. Giving more is okay but never less. Some families proudly display it at the wedding, and some, play it low. Play along with the groom's.family.

If you are a smart bride, it will take you a couple of months to figure out the family's needs. (Huh?)

For a family of four, grocery worth Rs. 10,000 is more than adequate. More of that later

My advice to you both:

You're still young. So, save as much as possible. Savvy women set aside 30% of the salary as savings. Out of that 10% is allotted towards gold. You may feel that my estimate of  the grocery bill is too high. Choose what is comfortable to you. Be smart and find out ways to get good bargains at your local store.

Good bargains are not the freebies but those that are in your list and you get two for the price of one if you buy it now.

Please note: An increase in salary does not mean an increase in expenditure. The increase should be put aside for savings and investments. (Hm...)

Take some time out and read Moms in C-Suites for some nifty tips on home management.

So, You're Married, Now What, ask Moms In C-Suites

So, You're Married, Now What?



After The Wedding...



So, the first day after the wedding begins with cleaning up the room. The plate of fruits goes to the fridge and the udari flowers and the malas are taken and decorated around  the Tulsi pot.

That done, change the sheets and replace it with new, fresh-smelling sheets.

How to? Here's how...

Lift the edges of the width of the sheet. Lift it up and shake it firmly two or three times before you tuck in the edges neatly to the bottom of your mattress.

Have a shower and wear one of the new dresses or saris and go back to the mandap to complete the rituals.

Say bye to your parents and family. The elders (parents in law) will take you to meet their friends and relatives.

Just make sure he too is introduced to your family. (Hm...)

After the introductions are made, a visit to the temple is mandatory..

And then you go for your honeymoon, for around a week to ten days. Sometimes, this is determined by company rules and regulations.

Every auspicious journey begin with a single (right foot first) step. Strike the right note on your special journey with a cuppa of  tea made by your Mom in C-Suites the memory of which will be shared and cared by both of you, forever.
