Gimme the magic words......

"Hey witch doctor!!! Give us the magic words!! Okay...it goes.....oo ee oo ah ah ding dang walla walla bing bang!!"

Sigh. Wish those would work for me. Anyways....Assalaamu alaikum!! Be pleased with me for my steadfastness and my commitment!! Alhamdulillah!! The Fajr prayer has been mine daily!! And I've been praying Qiyyam al Layl as well. Alhamdulillah!! Yesterday was particularly enjoyable, as I prayed for 2 hours before the fajr. It has helped me focus.....really!! Alhamdulillah....

We went to Cairo for a day.....stayed at the inlaws....the girls had LOADS of fun......and I love seeing them happy. The ice has broken between the two older children and their father. They are comfortable around him and have calmed down. Something happened yesterday tho that stirred them up a bit

Hubby's cell phone rang....he grabs it...looks at the number and then ran in the bathroom. It was like an ax fell on my girls. All of them sat there, silent. I told them..."so what if he talks to her? It's his wife, right?" They all gave me the MURDER eyes. (and I really didn't mean it...I was pissed too!) So I walk over to the bathroom and listen in. But subhanAllah...it was a worker calling....and hubby's saying...take this from there and send it here, etc etc....work stuff about here in Egypt.

I walked over and told the girls. They were still upset.....then slowly one of them started talking, then the other.......the moment passed. Sigh. Guarded happy. All of us.

We came home from Cairo and hubby goes to the bedroom and checks his Canadian cell phone....he stands there for a long time. Hmmmmm....I wonder what it is? I go check later and he's got 10 missed calls. It seems that MM is in Morocco. The numbers are all strange. Sigh.

We are probably going to have a mini vacation in the next couple of days. The brother with all the kids will be joining us. You better bet that there will be lots of talking going on with them. I'm hoping that the brother talks about EVERYTHING....I know the SIL will tell me.

At the moment....I'm biding my time. As long as hubby is here beside me....I have no problems. Is that selfish? Well...anyways....I'm a peacekeeper right now. I need to get the baby's BC finished..... I'm avoiding all one to one communication. It's not the time for it. I'm still on edge waiting for something......I don't know what?

Maybe for him to tell me he's leaving? Yes...maybe that.....either he'll be going back to Canada or Morocco......whichever comes first.

You know? I deserve some EXTREME PATIENCE reward. LOL!! I have time...I don't need to push right now......

I have so much more to tell.........but I'll have to get back later.....
