Aabi: The Joy

Aabi, the name means ‘Pure Joy’.

Simply as what her name implies, Aabi was and will always be pure joy. She carried into her little self, an energy that would dim the brightest of firecrackers, fearlessness that would challenge the norms, and love that no one could ever get enough of, yet remain yearning for more and more. Her joy, optimism, warmth, and her love for her elder sister, to always look at her while doing anything and everything, makes me visualise her as a ‘Sunflower’. Just as the sunflower always turns towards the sun and bloom, so would Aabi to her sister Aarvi – our sunshine. Her eyes had a unique twinkle to them, so evident that I almost pet-named her ‘Tim-Tim: Hindi for twinkle’

Our house, like any other normal, loving, household, was complete and cherished with two beautiful girls. What could one ask for more than this.
