Mira Matar

A conversation. First inspired by the birth of Dunia in 2009. Inspiration re-ignited, with the birth of Mira in 2022. Noting down thoughts, again, is not only an adult rebirth; it is a second chance. Becoming a parent is like that. Kids inspire us to reconsider what is relevant in life. Kids open doors to new perspectives. Kids offer us a chance to become better individuals. There is a discipline to being a parent. Being a parent helps us become better helpers. Lead with love. Serving.

08 August 2024 - Top time on the Table top

August 08, 2024

Awake. Already a ray of sunshine. Yet, could still do with a little more rest. I returned home near to lunch time, And encountered this scene. Mum's planned-for dessert... which had been left on the table with a cup of coffee... wasn't going to make it. Fate had it that... Your brother cried out for a feed... and She ably responded... and You executed on your plan ☺ Post meal, pure joy. There was also joy, when you stepped out and checked out your new contraption. Before hopping over to the raspberry garden. Early evening, the water melon left on the table was not left untouched. Yes, a theme is forming here... Ditto, the dinner time sushi. The chopsticks were used unorthodoxly, As the fish bits were harpooned. Then a return to civility. "What" you asked? What incivility? There is more than one way to do things in life. And, of course, you were right. ❤❤❤

18 August 2024 - Two years on earth

Your Birthday morning, kicked off on the right note! Birthday dancing. Your musician Grandad, serenading you on your birthday.. Some of the delights enjoyed, thanks for the most part to Mum's efforts! Thanks to our family friend Abu Ali, Lebanese cuisine adorned the table! Beauty-full! A few at the table. Your maternal Uncle assisted as you tried on your doctor's outfit. I was in trouble... The last shot taken, before I was left wet and laughing. Balloons! Having a blast! Beauty and your Bro. The Grandma baked cake! Us. Those who shared the moments in-person. Mum & I bring out your cake. Time to blow out the candles!! Thank you to you and your siblings. You are profoundly important and inspiring. Looking forward to seeing you evolve into the You of your choice. ❤❤❤

"Ready to unwrap something Dad?" Aunt Rabs dropped in on a call from Sitto. Mum and I, with You and AK. Your table is not only for consuming knowledge, But also for consuming fresh smoothies. Morning mat time. The best form of being up in arms 😊 Aunt Leila and the kids checked in. Uncle Walid ditto, only moments later. The in-laws dropped in. The fam in Oz checked in as I was en route home. To share moments with the kids, they repeated the delightful HB chorus performance. Ready to step out for a birthday lunch. Kids demands don't take a time out. The tree opposite our first table. You and Vasilisa met. Mum and AK enjoyed a beautifully illustrated and contemporary book. Us. At our second table. You got to have the tree and kids area as a direct extension of our spot. Magical, from the starters through to the desserts. You insisted on me having a slice of 'birthday' special banoffee. You created an additional play zone. The freedom to be, is marvellous. Back home....
