Stairs and parents of a newborn

Books on Stairs

 We drove home. That was the easy part, in hindsight!

The tough part was the staircase. Second Floor. 4 flights of about 8 steps each. 6 inches per step.

She had suffered a few tears and walking was hell. Climbing was unimaginable. Impossible to lift the food 6 inches.

... and then, I remembered I was a student with real thick books - think macroeconomics!

So, I got two of them from our flat. 

She then climbed the books.. then the next step ... then the books.. then the next steps and so on! 

Took us a really really long time to reach upstairs....

.... where a friend waited with a diya (Earthen lamp) to welcome the "3" of us home. 

We entered to a full surprise. Friends had decorated the house in full baby bloom! 

Grateful all is well.
