Fire 6/27/22

I Love My Son’s Art!

I always love Azri’s art. He loves to draw with pens, usually one color, but recently he’s been using more color. I love these recent pictures. One is of a soccer player. The other is Azri, Daddy, me, and Avalina. He even wrote my name on the picture!!!

Rag Curls

Last night, March 16, 2018, we decided to try rag curls. I cut old dish towels into strips and rolled their damp hair. After sleeping overnight on them, which Ama said was comfortable and Adi disagreed, we blow dried them a little more. Then, after breakfast, we unwrapped them. They had better ringlets than I […]
