Oooh...my little twin is leaving me....

2008-05-29T15:31:00.000-07:00

It is amazing how she is so excited to leave. When we told her that she is gonna be gone for 5 months, she thought it was not a long time because she said..."thats it?" We were laughing so hard. But i am sad that his little twin version of him is leaving. It didn't hit him until the next morning when the television was off and there wasn't anyone to watch Dora and spongebob with. She was his excuse to watch that but now, we are back on CNN. =-)

What airline are we taking Grandpa?

I love this picture. The funny thing is that when i was crying like a little girl who got her toy taken away from a bully, all she said to me was "mommy, stop crying like a baby." I couldn't believe it.

Muniiba is leaving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know if i am happy or sad or confused as to why i decided for Muniiba to go and visit Hargeysa for 5 whole months. She is leaving on the 24th, heading to Dubai and staying there for a week. After that week, she will be heading to Hargeysa for the remaining of the time. On one part, i am so excited for her to go and visit her other grandparents and cousins that she has never seen before. She gets to learn how to speak Somali fluently, play with all her cousins and etc. On the other hand, i am nervous, emotional and all other things that i can't even express verbally. What am i to do people? Abdisalan suggests that we should take a honeymoon and relax. How should i relax without my honey-munch.
