There are times I catch myself wondering when Ani will come back into the room. Not this Ani, but the other Ani. It's unfair for me even to think this, but I do sometimes. I catch that Ani out of the corner of my eye, or out of the corner of this Ani's eye. I love my daughter beyond my ability to understand, and I just want to serve her better. I don't want to just be able to take care of her body's needs, but that of her mind and spirit as well. But for that, I need to hear her opinions in a much more high fidelity way. Not just Yes/No to the questions I think of, but in a more abstract "Ani way". I have written before that I lament the loss of Ani's comments and perspectives, so I have lost a way of looking at this world.
