Siblings

Here's a photo of Alu and me - a selfie soon after we returned home last month from my dad's memorial service. It takes an occasion for us to get together for a photo - even more so when we are cleaned up.

And here are Vivian and Evan on any given morning. It would be unimaginable for them to not be together. I wonder if they realize that almost surely they too will end up that way. I remember one of the earliest sorrows I felt as a child was when my uncles and aunts would occasionally visit and I got to understand that they were not that close to my parents anymore though at one time they must have been just like Alu and me.
