This morning my sister came over and brought her eightteen month old over. Today is the first day I am to watch her from 8am to 3:30pm and boy am I tired.
Hediyah, my sister, is doing an internship at the Children’s Museum (the best place in the world!!!!) and so I am watching Laila during those hours.

She misses her mom so much that every time she is not being entertained she starts screaming and runs to the front door to put her shoes on. This is my niece so it’s not like she doesn’t know me I’m just like aww don’t cry, mommy will be back later on. She is ok now pretty much. Poor thing knocked her self out crying like that and now she is in my bed sleeping dead to the world. And my kids just don’t quit down for the sake of a sleepy cousin, and she is out out out. LOL I’m happy Insha’Allah when she wakes up she will be ok, much better.

My husband and I were scheduled for a date today. We were going to go get some lunch and then catch a show at the movies. Subhanna’Allah was I looking forward to this!! But Allah willed that we ALL would get sick and now are unable to go out. My husband and I are pretty much better but the girls are still sick.

boo hoo, but Insha’Allah next Sunday we’ll go instead Insha’Allah. Or maybe anyway, the race is that weekend…. my husband says it will be a busy day that day… we’ll see though Insha’Allah.

A friend of mine lives in Speed Way Indianapolis, I went to visit her like two weeks ago. And it was crowded and filled with traffic, I was like ” Why did you have to go live in speed Way!!” The race wasn’t even that weekend, it was just practice time and people were crowded around the track for that! Her apartment is like right there too.

It’s cool though, I’ve never seen the Indy 500 before, or any other race really for that matter. The movie Cars makes it look exciting though! LOL

“Just another day sitting in my hood just another day around the way, feeling good today”

LOL, remember that song? I probably said it all wrong LOL
Nothing really going on today, just chillin. Except for one MAJOR thing

SHE CRAWLED, Tahira crawled, her first little crawl was today at 11:47am!!!!!!! Alhamdulillah
she is getting so old, I just can’t believe it..It was yesterday that I left the hospital room carrying her…. **tear**

In accordance with the natural order of things the All Mighty has decreed that this semester is OVER and that I my dear readers (If I have any left due to my long departure) have done extremely well, Alhamdulillah.

Moving along:

Zahra and Tahira are up and about… well Tahira is in her crib just chillen away. Laughing and playing talking to whom ever will listen.

The 14 of August will be a wonderful day Insha’Allah. Such a day that Zahra will be off to her first day of Preschool. I think I will be hearing about how excited she is until the that very day. We (her and I) went the other day to enroll her at the Junior Islamic Academy of Indianapolis. You know It would be nice if the Islamic schooling for children from pre-k to 12 was no charge like the public school system. If would encourage more families to enroll their children to get Islamic as well as traditional Academic education… But then again, maybe then it would turn out to be the quality of a public school,… and we all know that sometimes that can really really … such.

Well, there is more to tell, and Pray to Allah I’ll be back again to tell all that is all.

With love

Ma’Salaama!

Happy Mother’s Day to all you mothers out there trying hard to raise your children to the best of your abilities, Insha’Allah Allah will bless you all and grant you paradise.

And remember, Paradise lies at the feet of YOU, mothers!!
