The MACBs came into my life in 1994......he was my lecturer and HOD and later we became colleagues and good friends and now, I am part of his family..... He is like my father figure, when appa passed away, I went to Mr B and I just cried...I remember him giving me a kitchen towel! He is a very nice man...loves it when his staff ties saree....loves red....loves his currypuffs....he has terrible mood swings but nowadays he has mellowed down..
Mrs B is a very nice woman, patient...ahhhh living with Mr B is surely a challenge...the moody Englishman!! I was very happy when she introduced me to ppl as her eldest daughter recently at Abu's wedding......today she called me to ask if I am okay or not...and asked if I wanted anything from UK.....I forgot, I should have told her to get me an Englishman :-)
As I told my doc while I was at the reception, I was soooo happy to be there, I was holding this tiny baby in my arms on that day, she gave me so much joy......the angel in my life........ Kathy as I called her...doc told me to enjoy the tiny fingers, the tiny feet, the tiny person who filled my whole heart with so much love in just an hour to last me a life time......
To the Macbs, I wish the whole family well. May god bless each and everyone of them. Here's hoping and praying this friendship will last forever. I have come to see them as part of my family as well....To little Shakinah, Muhammad and Kathy...my newest addition to nephew and nieces!!
Krshna, thank you for giving me this extended family......
