Assalaamu Alaykum,
So nice of you to join in. I love reading responses to these tags/memes. I love your answer to 25. I don’t know many people (esp here in Saudi) who’s follow that. Now, do your kids also stay away from soft drink? Mine will have it but not much. And I sometimes see them go for water instead when they have a choice.
wa `alaykum as salaam wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh :)
Oh tags and memes are fun! My kids don’t like soft drinks either alhamdulillah. In fact, they sometimes tell people that Coke and Pepsi are good cleaning agents so why drink them? Tee hee…
Assalaamu Alaikum
Masha Allaah nice to know about you! But it would be great to meet you one day Insha Allaah! : ) Love you for the sake of Allaah!
wa `alaykum as salaam wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh :)
It would be lovely wouldn’t it? A nice blogging Muslimahs’, homeschoolers’ convention all in one! :) May the One for whose sake you love me love you, sister! Love you back!!
