Amma took center stage, where she rightfully belongs, for the past one month. Her photo was placed in the center of my living room, where she lay for her final few days with us and during
her funeral. She was and will always be the center of our universe and that of her grandchildren, so it was a fitting place for her.
her funeral. She was and will always be the center of our universe and that of her grandchildren, so it was a fitting place for her.
Today, I had to reluctantly clear everything away and place her photo in her room. I did it with a heavy heart because it was another reminder that she was well and truly gone. But then I realised that her room was her favourite place in the house. It has been the center of her universe over the past few years. She took the saying 'Home Sweet Home' to the extreme.
I have put a few things of hers that are precious to her near her picture.
In Loving Memory, a picture of her with her darling Athan, her cook book and ........
Let me know what else she would like near her.
Her iPad surely!
