I found a little help for my blog today. I expanded the columns a bit and I wanted to give credit to The Blogger Guide.
It might look a little strange on here tonight, I am trying to change the way the blog looks. InshaALLAH it turns out the way I want.
I am – do you think I should bother? I get bored (as if there’s nothing to do)and since I can’t move the furniture around for a few more weeks, I’m studying the web color chart so that I can find the right shades.
Also, I wanted to say thank you and JazakILLAH Khair for all the kind words, du’as and well-wishes from everyone. I really thought this birth was going to be easy like my last one, but surprise! This was the hardest because of the recovery time.
I am being more active now (a little) but I certainly feel the soreness at the end of the night. Your contact made me feel a lot better during those times of quiet when the shaitaan would whisper – you know, things like, “how in the world are you going to homeschool now that this little baby is here?” ALLAH prevails.
I know of a dear, sweet sister who homeschools six of her nine children,masha’ALLAH, so surely I can find the strength to handle three of four, InshaALLAH.
I visit as many of your blogs as I can and you’re all doing spectacular jobs. There is so much creativity out there and such strong resolve to mold our children into proper servants of ALLAH, masha’ALLAH. Keep up the good work!
take care!
Du’a is a weapon that we all can use for our brothers and sisters in Gaza, Iraq, Afghanistan and those oppressed everywhere.
Narrated Abu Ma’bad, that the Prophet said, “… and be afraid of the curse of an oppressed person because there is no screen between his invocation and Allah.” Sahih Bukhari: Volume 2, Book 24, Number 573.

I just love that bald head, MashaALLAH.
We came home yesterday and it is taking some time to get used to being immobile. We are still doing little bits of school here and there – nothing major, I’m too full of medication for that. Just alphabet things with the younger two and keeping up with abacus homework for the oldest.
Here are some more (blurry) pics of the baby and one of the staples that they removed, can you tell that I was bored? It’s funny because I used the point and shoot camera for these so they shouldn’t be blurry but they are.
I started off with Demerol, then the epidural, morphine, Percocet, and now Oxycodone. Medication perhaps? LOL. I only have a limited amount and so far, I seem to be naturally weaning myself, Masha’ALLAH. I was so scared during the cesarean all I could do was make du’a. I could feel every pull and tug and cut but without the pain of course. I was freezing cold and shaking and felt like I had so much pressure on my chest. My shoulders and neck hurt afterward and I needed a massage and a heat pack. My last birth was natural so this was certainly a test and SubhanALLAH what a test it was!
