Who has time? With lockdowns and kids at home, I’m sure we’re all going batty. I do admit I’m kind of enjoying rediscovering my love for homeschooling. I’ve had plenty of challenges being locked in with my big family but alhamdulillah spending more time with the kids isn’t one of them. For the first time… Continue reading Hajj Writing Prompt For The Older “Kids”
Do your kids ever fight? I have three that are very close in age. The battles can get pretty intense. My battle plan includes a non-participation strategy from my side. They have to sort it out themselves or they lose the privilege of playing together. Any behaviour issues I notice have to be dealt with… Continue reading Ramadan pages for Tweens 4
So my timing is far from right according to my time zone, but hopefully its morning somewhere in the world. The part today is shorter than I thought it would be. Apparently I can’t write and edit fast enough. Still waiting for feedback so I can improve the quality here. Chapter 1 part 3
Life is busy, especially under lockdown. I’m not sure how people suddenly have loads of time. Having your entire family at home can really increase everyones workload. Apparently I do have more time. Or I wouldn’t have been able to finish writing the next piece of the story. Please remember to send some feedback. I’m… Continue reading Ramadan Pages for Tweens 2
This is for the boys. Maybe the girls too. But honestly this one is for those creatures of Allah that are often forgotten in the world where every worksheet and activity is designed for the eager minds and fingers of the world’s little women. I have 3 of them, so please don’t tell me all… Continue reading Ramadan Pages For Tweens
I think I’ve had a love-hate relationship with homeschooling over the past few years. I love it because I enjoy seeing my kids’ eyes light up when they learn something. I hate it because I face burn out within a month of schooling and then everything collapses, including my ability to be a healthy parent.… Continue reading Another Woman Drudging Along
Sometimes I wish little things would satiate my soul and fill my heart with contentment. I wonder what it feels like to step back from a hot stove on a hot summers day, taste the lovely meal you spent 3 hours cooking and then feel joy and exhilaration. How do you excitedly anticipate the first… Continue reading A Woman’s Contentment or Resentment?
There’s an argument going on somewhere in the house. Dinner won’t be ready today. I go to the kitchen, getting that dinner ready or cleaning the little corners where the clutter is. There are gaps that are left open, I try to fill them, just to keep life going smoothly. That was me in my… Continue reading Free to walk away
Eyes locked on the screen, mind glazed over, with a flick of the thumb, scrolling through screen after screen of information I’m sure I didn’t need, I was lost. Facebook and Instagram. I think I was just getting started with social media. I don’t think I could have handled anymore. So I deleted them. How… Continue reading Mama You’re a Screen Zombie
