Fire on the first day of Ramadan!


Assalamualaykum!!!Today there was a big fire in the car rental shop in front of our house .My brother was the first to see it but we didnt listen to him.And then my aunt came and showed us
that a fire was going on just before our eyes.It lasted for 2 hours before it lessened and then finally went away.A gigantic crowd of people were standing on the road in front of our house.
Sometimes the smoke looked like it was night and sometimes as if a hurricane was coming. And it was also the first day of Ramadan.My aunt and my uncle stood outside but I only went for a few minutes because the air was smelling bad.I could even smell the horrible smell from inside.
We could also see the flames leaping up from our house.Also a few people were taking videos with their cameras.Then my mother called us to come down and sleep but we instead went to a window and looked out.I noticed a muslim lady that my mother knew standing just in front of the window with her daughter. I called my mother and and she opened the window and talked for a few minutes with her.Then she called her inside.They both talked for about 10 minutes and then she left.We went inside and slept.

Morning Glory Flowers

Assalamalaykum!!!!! I had planted some morning glory flowers a few months ago and my
grand father helped.Every evening he would go outside and water all the plants that me and my grandmother had planted.Now finally they have bloomed but the problem is they only
bloom in the morning since they are called morning glory.And im always reading quran every day in the morning.But my mother has seen them.And by the time i finish,they have alredy closed up.And on the days that i have no quran(sunday)and the days when i finish early I forget.
So i hope to see them.

Tide to-go

Assalamualaykum!!!!! Today we went to walmart and saw this instant stain remover pen
by Tide.We decided to buy it since it looked good.So we bought it. After we went into the
car I decided to try it out on a paint stain on my dress.I pressed the tip against the paint and some liquid came out.I rubbed the pen across the paint many times and the minute I was done
the paint had nearly vanished!!I was so surprised and tried it out on another stain.That one
nearly vanished also. thats all

Best Day

Assalamualaykum!!!! Yesterday was the best day in my life. I'll tell you
the reasons. First of all, my mother took us to the library. Since I love
reading I got as many books as I can read. My favorite books are the magic school
bus science chapter books so I got as many as I could find. Then my mom took us to ice skating.
After ice-skating for an hour with my friend, we climbed into the car and there were our books waiting for us so we read all the way home. Plus what we had to memorize was really easy.And also the day before yesterday my mother ordered a gift for me for finishing a juz.

Ice-skating lessons

Assalamualaykum!!! I just wanted to tell every body that me and my friend
are taking ice-skating lessons. Before I took the lessons I could barely skate properly.
Now I can jump, glide on one foot, and spin alhamdulillah.Its really
fun.

CD burning

Assalamualaykum!! I just learned how to burn CDs. At first
I thought it would be hard but then I realized it was easier than I thought.
And also while you are waiting for the CD to burn you can do something
on the computer.I burned about 50 CDs for my grandma on islamic lectures.

New Baby

Assalamualaykum!! My mother just had a new baby boy!!! He was born 11 days ago and his name is Abdur-Rahman. I was supposed to type this post the day he was born but we were all so excited that I completely forgot. While my father was at the hospital with my mother our grandparents took care of us. The first day my father stayed at the hospital. But on the second day he came home and told us to get ready so we could go to the hospital and see the baby. So we packed our lunch and our father drove us there. First we went to the room where my mother stayed. We saw the baby.We had brought our mother balloons and a glass vase full of dark blue and purple flowers. I had also brought a camera to take pictures of the baby.After that it was lunch time.Since we had brought our lunch we ate it right there. Then we went out for a walk outside the building because our father said that there was a giant waterfall. Afte that we went back into the hospital.The baby had a few tests and then we went home.

there was a lot more but i dont know how to type it

Red Ants

Today we were playing outside in the front of our house.We had brought our brother with us so he could play too.My father and grandfather were pulling the weeds.I was busily raking the soil to make it clean and my sister was digging. Just then I looked up to see what my brother was doing and i saw him scracthing his legs and he was covered with red ants!!!! I ran to my father and told him.He told me to show my brother to my mother. Unfortunately my mother was on the phone so I showed him to my grandmother. She quickly took his pants and T-shirt out and shook them to get the ants out.By that time the ants had already stung abdullah. I rushed him into the bathroom and wiped him with a warm towel to get him clean. It was then that I saw the stings from the ants.I showed him to my mother and she was surprised.Then I put on a clean shirt for abdullah,washed the stings, and powdered them.Then I put on his clean pants,socks,and shoes.Thats all.

A berry-good surprise

Assalamualaykum!! Alhamdullillah me and my sister made a big discovery right in our own backyard! We were playing in our backyard when I ran into our house to get something. Right when I was coming out my sister was at the door and told me she found a short tree with some strange fruits that look like raspberries.I ran with her to the tree and at the first glance I said that they were mulberries. And I turned out to be right! All that afternoon we played with mulberries while my father and grandfather cleaned the backyard.Of course we helped a little.Then my mother came to see us how we were working and we showed her the mulberries.
She said she would try one and see how it tastes. She said it tasted sour and doubted if it was a mulberry or not. After she had gone back into the house I asked my sister to try a berry. She ate one and and said it was sweet. I was confused. Then my grandfather came to us and he said he wanted to see this tree that we called a mulberry tree. He said that they were mulberries.Suddenly he grabbed a branch of the tree and popped all the berries he could find into his mouth. He also said that he had eaten a few when he was young and said that the tree would grow bigger.I immediately ran into the house and told the good news to my mother that the berries were edible.Then I hurried to the computer and looked up the word read a sentence that said that mulberries are sweet and edible. That was our new discovery.

Downtown Aquarium

Assalamualaykum.Today we went to the downtown aquarium.It was the best aquarium i had ever seen in my whole life.It was NOT like an ordinary aquarium because it had a restaurant.Everything looked sea-like becuase even the waitresses in the restaurant were wearing fish ties! There was even a giant treasure chest in the restroom to sit on.There was a Treasure Chest gift shop were i bought a small aquatic fan.We also bought one cup of dipping dots ice cream.There was a giant ferris wheel outside and a sea animal carousel.We got to sit in a small blue train with lots of other people to take a tour around.There was even a place where you could
get to touch real live sting rays and see real large shark eggs.After that we took a ride in the carousel and went home.



P.S. I dont know how to explain the whole thing.
