I think I may not have updated for over a month. High score! So here’s the world’s shortest summary of last month:
Iman: Grommets in, tonsils & adenoids out. Two weeks off school, ice-cream and lollipops FTW! We spent a day and a half in the hospital. The first day was fun, because morphine. She actually said- and I quote- THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER! Once the morphine wore off, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth, and she very sadly and heart-breaking sobbed, “Momma, I wish I never had a peration.” Not an operation, a peration. Say it out loud.
Alhamdulillah, she’s been off the pain meds for a week and is hearing better already. Alhamdulillah.
Khalid: Finally, finally getting his front teeth, Alhamdulillah! Khalid’s front teeth had to be removed almost four years ago, and his gummy grin has been a source of embarrassment and self consciousness for him since. Now, there are four white bumps slowly growing on the front of his gums, and we excitedly check on them every evening after brushing. Khalid’s been making dua his teeth. Alhamdulillah, it’s been answered. 🙂 Also, MashaAllah, my little man is now eight. And taller. And handsomer than ever. MashaAllah.
Musfira: Cute, small, crazy. Alhamdulillah.
The End.
