Hi Kristina,
ReplyDeleteI do not have a picture of my parents in the awards ceremony. In fact I want to share something with the followers. Though I don't speak much about our family, I love and respect them a lot. Apoorva and I each are blessed with two sets of parents. Yes, two moms and two dads. That is the benefit of living in a joint family. Apoorva and I are first cousins by birth but we are raised as siblings. We have shared a room thoughout our lives. We are siblings in every sense. Sometimes, because we call each other brother and sister, people get confused and think we are kids of Shivakumars or Rangans. But the truth is we have two sets of parents and each of us carry the last name of one set of parents.
We do not have words to describe their role in this project. Thanking them is not enough but we still need to thank them. So thanks to both my moms and dads.
Sincerely,
Adarsha
One final note, We want to thank Callie's parents Mr and Mrs. Roberts for their help, support, time and patience!
