Zakaria is getting braces and I am tearing up. His dentist and orthodontist are in the same office. I am remembering when I first brought Hadi and Zakaria here. They were fascinated by Mr. Slurpy. I remember when I had my braces and being introduced to dental wax. Good stuff. Favorite conversation with Zakaria about braces. I told him I know he is a rule follower but that I didn’t always follow the food rules with my braces. His response-“We both know I am not going to, I am gonna have some popcorn.” Ad astra per aspera. That’s on the Kansan flag. To the stars through difficulties. I might have been in the DMV area for over 20 years but I will always be a Kansan. Watching that game last night…seriously, Jayhawks, why you gotta be like that. Rock Chalk. Thinking about sitting with my beautiful Hadi while he filled out his brackets. Wonder what he thinks about Kentucky. Hadi was intense with his brackets. Wanted to know about statistics and everything. Zakaria…eh, I will just use yours, Mommy. We handed out iftar to a local community yesterday for Team Watience. Thank you to all those who donated towards this. I went with cheesesteaks and chicken sandwiches. One of the youngins said to his friend…halal steak is the best. Same kid put on a Team Watience shirt after hearing about Hadi. I am sure the tears will flow after I drop Zakaria off at school. Ceasefire on Jummah? Ya Allah, please. #freepalestine #jayhawks #braces #marchmadness #aplasticanemia #brackets
