Did you invite someone here today?

Yes, I brought my wonderful sister with me.

I actually have a letter that I wrote to her.

Ah, crap.

He's gonna make me cry.

Desi!

Hi.

Who did you invite here today?

I invited my foster mom, Stacy.

How long has Stacy been your foster mom?

Almost a year.

I invited my dad's sister today, my auntie.

Did you invite someone here today?

Yes, actually I brought my wonderful sister with me.

Oh my god.

Do you consider her your mother?

Oh, for sure.

Have you ever told her that?

Oh yeah, all the time.

Ever since day one, essentially.

She definitely has been a mother figure for me and my siblings.

Have you ever told your aunt that you see her as a mother?

I don't think I have.

It was actually a really tough situation.

Me and my siblings, you know,

we didn't want a replacement mom so it was always a hard thing for us to talk about.

I want to let her know how much I care about her.

I want her to know.

I actually have a letter that I wrote to her.

Ah, crap, he's gonna make me cry.

Do you have a surprise for your aunt?

I do have a little surprise for my aunt,

just to thank her for everything she's done for me.

Aww.

Would you like to read it?

Okay.

Dear Auntie.

Dear Jelaine.

Dear Stacy.

I wrote you this letter to finally give you the proper thank you that you deserve and have never gotten.

You were always there to lift us up,

keep us safe, and most of all,

you were there when the person that should have been was not.

I remember the day that I asked if I can live with you in your home and be your first foster daughter.

You told me that I can stay with you for as long as I needed.

And to be honest, that was more than I expected.

We weren't given any head starts in life.

We were placed with the unbearable weight of making our immigrant parents proud.

Growing up in a household that was toxic because of the way our mother treated us.

Everyone telling us that we should forgive her for something we went through.

And while all that was going on,

we had an absent father.

Not because he left us,

but because he was too busy working two full-time jobs to be around the house.

And to put the cherry on top of it,

our mother decided to finally leave us when I was 10 and when you were 17.

I'm extremely grateful that you continue to stick around,

and I'm sorry I never told you how much I actually appreciated you stepping in earlier.

There were many times where I felt like alcohol was more important than I was to my mom,

but you always were able to make me feel like number one.

I was 13 years old when I stepped into the system.

I jumped from place to place,

not knowing where I was going to go next.

I had depression, anxiety, and sometimes I would act up.

I remember when I was sobbing on my bed,

and you rushed into my room,

and you wrapped your arms around me.

And at that moment, I felt loved and safe.

From the age of seven until 25,

you're given the task of taking full care of a kid that wasn't even yours.

Yeah, we're siblings, but most people couldn't even do half the things you did.

Thank you for all the fun and wild adventures,

and thank you for being such a great second mother.

You're more than just my sister.

You're my mother, you're my superhero.

You're the person that I look up to in life.

And above all, you're my best friend.

And also, don't think I'll ever forget that time you left me at that grocery store when I was 11.

Oh, fuck.

I love you, Stacey.

I never actually told her that I loved her,

but I always thought in my head,

but I was like afraid to say anything.

I don't know why, but I mean, it's true.

I mean, I love her.

I love you so much,

and I could never pay you back for everything you've done for me and the family as a whole.

Thank you for being there when no one else was.

I love you.

I love that dance.

I love it.

I knew he was going to make me cry.

I just knew it.

What are you feeling like right now?

Surprised.

I don't have any words.

Was it a good thing?

Yes, it was a very good thing.

Do you want to go see him?

100

Yeah.

101

Oh, that's so sweet.

102

How are you not tearing up?

103

I was crying when I was writing it.

104

This is so awesome.

105

That was really good, I got to say.

106

It was well-worded.

107

Did anybody proofread that?

108

Yeah, I had one of my friends read it.

109

I can't.

110

I'm not the best.

111

It's so sweet.

112

Why did you want to do this?

113

I know that you care for me,

114

and so I wanted to show you that I care about you too.

115

Is it ever weird for you to think of yourself as your brother's mother?

116

Sometimes, but it's just one of those things you just had to do.

117

Does she feel like a daughter?

118

Does Desi feel like a daughter?

119

Definitely.

120

Definitely.

121

What are motherly responsibilities you had to take on?

122

As a 17-year-old, it was kind of luck,

123

because, like, literally our mom just ditched us.

124

It's like doing the dishes,

125

cleaning, making sure RJ's in bed, make sure he eats.

126

Dad was never around, so it was just my brother and I.

127

I was in an abusive home.

128

I went into a lot of violent group homes.

129

I was thinking to myself,

130

I'm like, you know what?

131

These people are gonna kick me out.

132

I'm gonna end up leaving.

133

They don't care for me.

134

What's different about her is that she actually wants to do all this.

135

She actually put the time and effort into this.

136

I mean, she cares.

137

She's just a really good, caring person.

138

What are things that you felt like you did different from your mom that made you a mother?

139

A lot of listening and talking and not getting mad for no reason.

140

No hitting, but you know,

141

it's just a lot of listening and understanding.

142

Was your biological mother abusive?

143

Very, yeah.

144

The things that I got beat for were really minor.

145

I accidentally tore a hole in my t-shirt when I was seven.

146

And in response to that,

147

my mom beat me across the face with a pair of scissors.

148

It was abuse, it really was.

149

I hate thinking about it now,

150

but I would hate to think about it without having her in my life.

151

Like I said, my mom does struggle with addiction

152

and sometimes the cops would have to come just to make sure everything was chill.

153

But I know you were there and like you just made us all feel safe and calm.

154

What was it like hearing her say that she loves you?

155

I never thought I would hear those words from her.

156

I've felt it from her before,

157

but I've never heard the words and I never thought I'd hear them.

158

Claire, I love you.

159

Thank you.

160

I love you very much.

161

Thank you.

162

I love you very much.

163

What makes someone a mother?

164

I think it doesn't have to be a biological thing.

165

It's kind of just like the little things that you'd expect from your actual mom,

166

but sometimes I don't get that.

167

So when you do it,

168

it really feels nice to have that support that I'm lacking.

169

You're good.

170

Thank you for being in my life.

171

Like, I don't think I'd be where I'm at today without you.

172

Thank you too.

173

Thanks for being born.

174

I love you.

175

I love you too.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
