- Always Put Your Trust in GodAs the day he’s supposed to start his leave nears, we don’t hear from him. So, we don’t know when he’s going to start driving to Los Angeles. I keep my expectations low because I don’t want to be disappointed.
- Foster CatThe last 10 nights of Ramadan were very special to me. As Penny slept a lot during the day, she was very active at night. She accompanied me during my night prayers, playing with my prayer mat.
