A hidden treasure is known
03.13.06
I wasn’t feeling very well a little over a month ago, so I went out to sea. I saw a little island alone in the water and docked my dingy on its shore. Or rather, I just jumped into the water and walked onto the shore. And this island was full of amazing things. But the paths were not easy. I walked and walked till I had to crawl and crawl. In the end I found the island’s hidden treasure.
And he was inside me all along.

Tell me about your baby. Is it a boy, girl, what’d ya name it? Is he/she frisky. Does he/she look like you?
Are you excited? elated? Calm and ready? How are you feeling?
Answer at your leisure. And I’m ON YOUR BLOG ROLL!!!!!!!!! *dance*

his name is Razi Aftab. Means the Content Sun. Ameer doesn’t think that makes sense, but Aftab was my grandfather so I gave Razi that middle name. Also I loved the book the Alchemist and I like the idea of alchemy. One of the first known alchemists was al-Razi. My grandfather was also a chemist amongst other things.
I’ll probably do a post about them both some other time.
where the heck is everyone, how do i get people on this crap?
guess i’ll have to actually post something.

Ah! I am happy to have discovered your blog! I hope Razi is clever like his father but it would be better if he were smart, beautiful, and sensible like his mother. TabarakAllah!
