Salam wa aleikum




....thanks for coming to read my blog.


I hope that you will enjoy keeping in touch with our lives, and that one day, you might even make the trek out to come and visit with us (**NB - VISA's upon arrival for Canadians once again!!).

Grab yourself a nice cup of tea (Make mine JTG's Blue Mountain, mixed with a hint of French Earl...but get something that suits your fancy), and let's catch up...

Happy Birthday Nanaji


It's only one day late.

If you look closely, you will see that Pickle is actually singing along (and he really picks it up towards the end).

I am so pleased with how much vocabulary he is starting to use (today he told me:  want Gadget, I am playing with baby).  The words are not super clear, but he is really starting to pick things up.

Shy-shy is too.  She has quiet a few words, with 'carry-me' being her current 'high frequency' word.  

A is just finishing up her Eid break (impressive how smoothly 'Eid Mubarak' rolls off her tongue).  She was very disappointed by a sudden sandstorm that derailed her plans to go for a swim in the moat this afternoon. However, playing in the 'ball pen' helped her feel a lot better.  Back to school tomorrow--and the tears are already starting up about ballet.

I promise:  after this term, I am NEVER signing her up for another extra-curricular activity until she begs me. I just can't fight this fight anymore.
