Happy Eid 2024 dear friends !
We celebrated our Eid 's first day yesterday on 10th of April . Our youngest son arrived on Eid morning and it was huge pleasure to have him with us on our yearly festive day . Our eldest son called us on Chand Rat (translation of term is moon night before Eid day) and spent some precious online time with us by the grace of God even though it was his office day he managed to call again on Eid day as well and it made us so happy because the feeling of having all kids close by seems priceless to parents and i know many can relate to it!
sorry that i could not respond to my previous post comments because of so much business related to Chand Rat and Eid day preparations. Needless to say such day awake so many memories related to days when we were kids and living under the shade of love of parents .Now when they are gone ,these memories value most on such occasions. I will keep in touch .My younger son will leave after at the end of this week and i want to spend each moment with home during he is here . God Bless you all!!!!

Deleteno doubt empty nester parents remain in state of awe nd wonder of their children living far away from them and secretly wish if they can visit them daily but we know life is not that easy ,every wish and dream demands struggle and something in return .for parents it is toughest price indeed yet with strong sense of peace that their kids are growing and learning out there by the grace of God!
Blessings to you and your family, dear baili

DeleteDear Baili,
ReplyDeleteHappy Eid 2024 to you and your family! It sounds like you had a truly heartwarming celebration with your sons. The way you managed to connect, whether in person or online, captures the essence of Eid—being with loved ones, reminiscing about the past, and making new memories. It's wonderful that despite the distance and busy schedules, you all found a way to feel close and share in the joy of the festival. Cherish these moments with your younger son during his stay; these times are precious indeed. May the spirit of Eid fill your home with peace and happiness throughout the year. God bless you too, and looking forward to hearing more from your festive experiences!

to me dear John life is all about love and care which i share with family and friends whether online or closer ones ,this makes me feel complete and peaceful and life seems to have true meaning for me :) big heartfelt thanks for kindest and heartwarming comments !
DeleteSuch beautiful photos of you, Ali, and your sons, Baili! Thank you for sharing them with us. I hope that you and your family enjoyed Eid. It's lovely that you were able to spend time with your handsome sons. Family celebrations always bring back treasured memories, wonderful and poignant, especially those of people we love but who are gone. Wishing you and your family God's blessings.
ReplyDeletesweet of you to come by dear Louise !
Deleteit is priceless to hear from you always!
i am grateful to God who provides us with chance to see our kids on such special moments ,we missed our eldest son greatly but this was such a grace of Allah that he could accompany us through WhatsApp for two days and for long as well which made things lighter and brighter for us as family and for us as parents particularly !
this is strange that as time passes by we feel closer to those who loved us as parents nurtured us with love and care the most divine essence of life but are gone now , i feel really grateful for treasures of memories that make my days more lovely and perfect during such occasions specially !
It looks like you are having a wonderful time with your family celebrating Eid.
ReplyDeleteLove and blessings to you and your family :-)

ReplyDeletei am learning to accept how children leave nest and life of parents becomes a hope of days when they will return home and we can see them and spend time with them .the pattern of nature is perfect yet it has challenges that play vital roll in our growth as humans for sure dear Sandy ,thanks for sweet wihes ,same here for you and family!
