Hi .. The pic is of my beautiful son, born on 2/5/2005. His name is Tariq, meaning Bright Star. As I type this, he is blowing bubbles in his water cup and watching cartoons. He whined to get this water for 15 mins and now he won't drink it, he will only play with it. Sigh..
A few days ago he came up with this song, so sing along to the tune of "Old McDonald" :
Old McTariq
Laq Laq Laq
E I E I OOOOOO
LOL I thought it was the cutest thing :-)
When I'm not running around after my son, or cleaning up the mess he makes wherever he goes, I cook and bake (my husband loves the blueberry muffins I make) and I love trying new recipes ..
I also love to read, and collect sci-fi/fantasy novels .. I have over 500 books and still counting ..
