We took Aliya to see the final Golden Jubilee project celebrating the 50 years of service by the Imam to the Ismaili community. It was a beautiful exhibit with pictures of the Imam from childhood. It also had quotes from previous Imams. The exhibit was created in a dome shape with each "ray" as a different type of service done by the Imam. Architecture, Education, Healthcare, were some of the topics that were shown at the exhibit. We meet Maa and Bapa there. Maa saw some pictures of her family members with Hazar Imam taken in the 50's in the exhibit! After we took in Rays of Light we headed to dinner. Aliya was not very nice to maa and cried every time maa held her. Naughty Naughty! I know this was not good behavior on her part but I was a little happy because it was the first time she showed a preference towards me since she was born. Normally, she will go to anyone but then she only wanted me or Rob. It was like her way of saying "I love you", cheesy, I know but I did feel special. I also felt terrible for maa. She loves Aliya so very much.
