I told myself this morning that I would be working by 9 AM. It didn’t happen. Here’s why: By 8:45, things were ahead of schedule. I had finished my breakfast (a reduced fat turkey bacon and egg sandwich from Starbs), chugged my Ensure (yummy chocolate), read my comic (The Unwritten #1), and swallowed my pills [...]

Happiness is spending the evening with my two best girls at the mall. Usually, an outing like that transforms itself into a chapperoning for two event for my wife. But tonight was different. Tonight, I held my baby in my lap, both of us savoring the feel of the wind blowing in our faces, as [...]

For those of you who know my wife, either in real life or from these postings, the following list of words and phrases should come as no surprise to you when describing Fehmeen: Incredible mother, devoted sister, loving and compassionate wife, and talented educator.
