| Shweta & her parents on her PhD convocation |
For my cousin Swapna, daughter of my father’s brother, life has been all about her family, being a homemaker & a mother.
Her daughter Shweta has penned down some lines for her. Her memories show how a mother’s presence means the most to a child. Money and comfort are important but can come later.
" I have several memories of my mother, but one of the earliest I remember was when I was at my annual function in UKG. I was 5 years old and I saw her in the crowd in a blue saree that she still owns.
At that moment, I remember being the happiest to see her. It has stayed in my mind & heart.
Her qualities if you ask me are that she’s the life of the party, her stories make everyone's day, she believes in physical affection.
If I could gift her a new skill? I would love for her to get the chance to learn dancing, cinematic dance I believe... she loves it and never got to learn it because her parents chose to teach her music not dance."
I see in Shweta's tribute that children notice everything and being a parent is a lifelong job. Do you notice that your mother would love to learn to dance? Why not do an activity even as older adults together and deepen the bond or friendship you have with one or both of your parents?
