Happy Mother's Day!

They say motherhood is not an easy job.  There is no sensible working hour, no off days, no vacation plus you can't quit and you don't get paid!  But when you look into the eyes of your children and see the love and adoration in their eyes, it worth all the hard work.  

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there!  

The highlight of my day was when my son Corey wrote a heart warming speech and pledge to be the best son any mom could ever dream of. The twins came home from school (yes, Sunday is a school day here in Dubai) and spend some time preparing me a nice drink on this special day and that for me is priceless! Enough to make me smile for a week!

  2. I never knew you had that bag! You've never shown it before! Yay ! Don't you love it? Is it single flap or double? What sweet boys you have. I hope my girls find good boys like that one day to take care of them like they take care of their momma! Oh bummer, why do I wish I could just have coffe with you?! Oh life....

    2. Hey, P! Yes, I have the bag for quite a while now.. mine is the single flap, bought it before the crazy price increase a few years ago. Yes, it is a great bag but honestly I prefer my maxi for size, more room :) The boys are alright, hope they stay that way.. we'll never know! Sigh, coffee would be great wouldn't it? 'Insyaallah' one day :)

  3. Awww....how sweet is that? Love these Kodak moments when the kids think their parents are the best thing ever. I couldn't agree more about the no vacation days, unpaid etc etc....we're on duty 24/7. All moms seem to have magically grown another set of eyes and highly sensitive ears.
