We had a "fun day" at school today for the elementary and middle schools. It was nice because I was able to take my camera to work and snap a few photos of students. I just had to get a photo of my dear friend Reham and me. I call her "Spicy" because her sense of humor and personality is quite sharp. She calls me "Mimi" because she wants to.
Also is a picture of Mira who won an award for best costume in her class. She was really excited.
One of the Kindergarten teachers gave me a carved pumpkin - a jack'o lantern from the Kindergarten party. It really made me homesick - so a friend of mine
lit the pumpkin for me so I could see it light up. It was lovely. Thank you my friend.
Ma'salaam,

Masha'Allah you look beautiful in your hijab!!! I just love the photos!
It is getting very cold here. Might have flurries this weekend! :O Do you miss the snow?
Love and lots of hugs!!
Thank you Layla! I put the hijab on July 3 on a trip to the North Coast and never once thought about taking it off.
You know, those of us born in western PA always miss snow. One of my sisters lives in your vicinity - will tell you more in a separate email.
I love your blog! Glad to hear all is well with Zane. Take care and relish the time with your Mom.
Miss you on this side of the world.
Ma'salaam and prayers.
Lovely pics!

My Dear Frances -- How are you?! I miss you so much! I have been thinking about looking you up on your site but just haven't been able to find it in my blog. Send it to me in email: marianamin2003@yahoo.com. Sounds like you all are very busy. Andrew in RRR #36?! I'm really old. I think I was in #9. How time flies. Learner's permit!? I hope you're not driving your Dad nuts with that. Remember his blood pressure. Mira misses you terribly. Uncle Hassan is probably coming to MD in the next two weeks for 90 days of work. We will see. I'll write more on the blog. I love you so much Frances. Please give your Mom and Dad a kiss for me and Peter and Andrew too. You are very dear to my heart. Love.
Karen - thanks for the compliment. I think with the weight loss I've aged a lot. oh well, can't have everything. I would rather be less fat than fatter and look younger anyday. Love.
