Last night I was doing my nightly ritual with Beth, which was basically talking. We would chat about her 'younger' days. "Remember when I was born?", she'd go.
It was cute.
And a pang of sadness hit me. If only Mabel was around to witness how adorable Beth is now. How chatty, witty and funny she is.
These are the little things that make me unbelievably sad. Happy moments, yet always tinged with a little bittersweet aftertaste.
At times, Beth would ask innocently, "Where is yiyi?". I'd ask "Which one?" and her replies sometimes caught me by surprise as it came out of the blue.
"There", her little fingers pointing to the sky rhetorically.
Yes, yiyi is in Heaven my love.
