i did it

Hello all...well the good news is that on wednesday I passed my NP exam!!!! But, two days before the exam I fell down at the university and broke my leg :( I am on the mend and we are finally free to take our leave.

The kids are doing well, they are excited to go and ameena is playing her arabic color bingo game like mad and hopefully we are both learning the colors for our new language development. Ameena had an awesome lion birthday party and her best gift was that grandpa came down to celebrate with us. She was so supprised when he came with me to pick them up. Ibraheem, was excited, recognized him and let dad carry him in from the car when we got home. It was such a sweet momment. The girls nextdoor commented on how much baby heem looks like his grandpa. Ibraheem is being his usual carefree self. It does appear that we are all clear to take Bella with us to Jordan. She is in good health and is ready to go after all her vaccinations and the airline gave us the okay to bring her in the life cargo. The good thing is that she will just account for a peice of luggage. Here's some new pics from that family...enjoy.

moving on

We SOLD THE HOUSE!!! I can't believe it. We got a good deal and I am so proud of us doing it without a realestate broker. It seems that things are moving full steam ahead. I went to NYC last week to pick out the furniture. I am leaving tomorrow to attend a class to help me pass the NP boards. I haven't recieved my testing time, but I plan on calling them tomorrow.

Ameena is doing well, she graduated from Islamic school (see pic). She's excited about seeing moh's family. Ibraheema caught a cold last week. He stayed home with me some, some residual coughing now but much better. He comes up with the funniest sayings lately like "what's up with that!" he whips them out over dinner and cracks us all up. We are planning a family vacation before we leave the country. We have booked out tickets for the 7th of July, we plan to be out of bburg around the 26th of June.
