In the video, Lavanya has spoken in her local language, but through English subtitles this story is now reaching everyone’s heart.
It’s about a typical morning. Lavanya’s 7 year old son was getting ready to go to school. While leaving, he expressed a wish to his mother, Mom, can we together make a greeting card after returning home in the evening? Lavanya also smiled and agreed and promised that they would definitely make it in the evening. But the busyness of corporate life and work often spoils such plans. Lavanya got late to office. By the time she finished work, reached her parents’ house, picked up her son and returned to her home, it was already late at night. He noticed that his son was very sad and quiet.
A question which shocked the mother
When Lavanya asked her son the reason for his sadness, the innocent boy asked a question which even Lavanya had not expected. He asked, Mom, what is more important for you? Me or your office? Hearing this, Lavanya was shaken to the core. He immediately hugged his son and said what a strange question this was. Then he assured his son that his son was the most important thing for him in this world, and didn’t he already know this?

Before sleeping at night, she again sat with her son and talked to him openly. He explained to his son that office work is his responsibility. Sometimes being late is part of the job. This does not at all mean that she loves her son less. He will always be the most important part of his life. Also read: 79 year old groom is looking for a young bride!
