My parents are still depressed and I can understand that. But Aayi didn't have to tell me, "I'll call you tomorrow evening if I come back alive from the wedding"!! I too am in no mood to generate some joke out of such statements right now, she should know that.
Anu has begun to like her mother tongue now, she's even proud of it and that of course has got me sort of relieved. Of course it's only half the battle because Marathi is a long way to go. And then she is missing her grandparents after their recent visit. She was vocally happy when they left after 5 years of staying with us, especially my mother and I didn't know what to say. I could understand that to some extent because of the friction they had on almost a daily basis but yet I had hoped she would be at least a little sad at their leaving. So this time I'm secretly rejoicing when she sheds tears that she wants them here forever. And also, she is finally at home with her music classes and the notes. She wants more of them, hums them day and night and has added singer to her list of professions.
Just too much work. Not that I'm complaining. I want more.
