Easter Hunt

Traditionally we do not celebrate Easter but Westmount Mall (London, Ontario) had a day planned for children for Easter and I could not resist taking my little girl. They called it an Easter egg hunt but it was hardly that. The London Rangers Baseball Team was in the mall that day signing autographs for the children, there was about six stations set up. Each station had a baseball player sitting and a container full of treats, after each signing children would take a treat and place it in their bag. There was an Easter bunny taking pictures with the kids and handing out treats and also a girl in a costume with the Salvation Army that was also passing out treats. Baby girl had a great time running around with her aunties and uncle but most of all she loves spending time with her grandma. I loved it! We got our signed poster and a bag of goodies which included pencils, Easter straws, pencil grips, an activity book, crayons, chocolates, and gummy eggs. I have to admit Malak was a little scared of the big bunny costume she just wanted to touch his face.

We spent the day at the mall with my two sisters, brother, and mother. We then went home and enjoyed homemade pizza as a family. It was a good day. At the end of the day family makes everything better, I am truly blessed to have such a terrific family always by my side.

International Women's Day 2019

Happy International Women's Day to all the strong, hard working women all over the world fighting to be heard. Think about women everywhere today; the ones who fight every day for basic rights, the ones who die just for a chance to be heard, about the everyday woman struggling to balance work and family and often neglecting her own self-care. Think about your mother. The strong woman who has raised you, put food in your belly, and smiled through her own hurt and pain so you never have to see that inside she is crying. Women of all shapes, colours, sizes, eras are just so amazing. Today's blog post is dedicated to a very special little girl in my life and that is my daughter Malak. I know in my heart that she will grow up to be a strong, confident, and intelligent woman who will make her whole family proud. I'm watching you right now playing on your iPad and sucking on that lollipop (note to self: get Malak to brush her teeth later) and I can see all the wonderful potentia...

Ramadan 2020: Preparations and Resources

Just under a month to go for Ramadan 2020! This year I have put together a nice '30 Days of Kindness' Calendar for Ramadan for children with the help of parents/guardians to follow earn some good deeds this Ramadan. Please feel free to pull and print off and if you would like an emailed PDF version just contact me and I would be more than happy to send it. I printed many copies and will be delivering to friends and family with children that I think would like to do this.   In the past I have tried to do a more festive Ramadan month to put some Barakah back into the month and have it be a joyous occasion for all. It is especially important for children because it helps instill that love of the month for them from a young age. Especially growing up and seeing the temptations of other Holidays and wondering why we don't do anything fun for Ramadan or Eid? Simple decorations and preparations like hanging some lights up across the window, lanterns placed around the...

The Shatha Show

I am helping my sister Shatha with her new YouTube channel called The Shatha Show. The videos star Shatha opening surprises, reviewing products, or just having fun in her day. We would appreciate thumbs up on the videos and some subscriptions. The Shatha Show They are kid-friendly videos appropriate for all ages. Shatha and my daughter Malak both are guilty for watching kids open surprises on YouTube so we thought it would be fun for Shatha to do her own videos. We are open to suggestions and would love to see some interactions on Shatha's channel. Stay tuned for more videos! Our goal is for once a week but we will see how that works out for us :) Thanks all!
