24 July 2024 - AK reaches 3 months

Image
The moo and pink show. Your joy with this little number, continues a family tradition. Your grandma Lyooda joined us this morning for our early daily outing. Your passion for dogs was again manifest. A close-up of you getting close. Your maternal granddad added to the party today. What party you ask? Adam Karim reached the milestone of 3 months today. Your sister Dunia got to 15 years and 5 months today. May good health be yours and your siblings constant and loyal partner. ❤❤❤

23 July 2024 - Got back just in time to hug and kiss you goodnight

Image
The first breakfast of the day. The next breakfast, a couple of hours later. You had the lovely bonus of tour maternal grandmother having come around. AK was enjoying a nap, as I stepped out for the day. ❤❤❤

22 July 2024 - morning and eve

Image
A beautiful morning. What better way to enhance the beauty than with joy-filled energy. Joy was what AK brought upon waking too. Catching up again early evening, you went straight into showcasing new motions. ..A skater without skates? Dunia's former classmate Violetta, her mother, and her grandmother interacted with you and with AK Two beauties. ❤❤❤

21 July 2024 - Apples, yogurt, and ice cream

Image
An apple a day, keeps... Does a little yogurt help? It won't hurt 😊 Having fun in the great outdoors is a gift. As is the attitude in your eyes here. Balancing out the diet, given the apple early on... AK communicating with his eyes and sounds... after an evening meal of his own. Tastes of life. Life itself is multifaceted and flavoured. Of the flavours that I wish for you and your siblings (that is, for Dunia, Mira and Adam Karim) ...health, wealth and wonderful relationships are the main ones! ❤❤❤

20 July 2024 - More than a cap of beauty

Image
My cap. My shoes. Yet it's you ☺ I returned home for lunch. It was fun watching you both savour your corn of corn cob, and to simultaneously do quality control tests on the remaining ones. Beauty and the beaut. And again. Creating, fun, in the garden. Zoning in. The creative fun continues, even as the exact location changes. Looking for the next spot. A change of jeans later, and Misha was encountered. Winding down with nature's own. I hope that you three siblings recognize how precious you are. I hope that you all realize how fortunate we are to have each and every day... Recognising and remembering are forms of awareness. With that context in mind, I hope you remember the in-plain-sight-wisdom of Jerzy G: "If you miss today, you miss it forever." ❤❤❤

19 July 2024 - Morn and Eve

Image
Up & away, Whilst Mum & Adam are at bay. On our way back from the grocery store, I asked you if you'd like to get down and walk up the steps. "I want to get down, and sit!" After not catching since around midday, We reconnected in the  early evening. Our Nigerian family friend Jennifer surprised you with gifts! ...and a hug. AK and I spent time post dinner. If either You or Dunia or Adam Karim ever get into business, remember the advice that I heard today. It was especially relevant thanks to its' clever packaging: "The best business card is a 3D business card. A 3D business card is the work or the product that you deliver!" I believe in the three of you. To deliver, and to (when apt in life) over-deliver. ❤❤❤

18 July 2024 - A chilled & growing menu

Image
Chilling. Nature showcasing growth. Shoulders! BBQ'd chicken roll (Armenian style). Now that's a piece of watermelon! ❤❤❤

17 July 2024 - A wet day

Image
Bear hug. Bearing natural beauty. A cute little like of yours, is watching garbage trucks and their workers do their thing. AK's visit to the specialist went well. Whilst waiting for lunch to arrive. Back home, and bathing with joy. Back outside, and 'bathing' in puddles! AK showed off ball skills ☺ May wetness in yours and your siblings lives, always be a source of growth or rejuvenation. May it also cleanse you all of unnecessary burdens or hangups. May the well of wellness inside of each of you grow in sync with your growth throughout time. ❤❤❤
