Our first night in the new apartment, the place was bursting with bags and boxes. Nani went straight to work making it all feel like home.
She called the "tailor-master" to stitch some curtains and cushions.
She went grocery shopping.
She set up a make-shift prayer shelf in her closet and blessed the house.
She shelled some peas to be frozen for future meals.
In the next room, my mom hammered together furniture in a frenzy...
I stared at the mess that is my room and read through old papers tucked away in old boxes.
Later, we ordered Dominos pizza to celebrate our first night in this new, (but now slightly less new and much more cozy), place.
