Please accept my apologies . . .

Asalaam ‘Alaikum Everyone:

No – we’re not actually closed (wipe the sweat from your forehead!) – actually only the SORRY part applies!

 

I know that I promised that I would upload the latest Arabic Learning Materials a week or so after Eid. I also know that many of you have been checking and waiting to see when that would ever happen. Have you lost confidence in me? I hope not!

I know that I am way behind – and I don’t take making promises lightly. From the depths of my heart – I ask you to forgive me for not doing it yet. The week I was intending to upload them, the girls and I had a severe stomach virus. The baby didn’t recover until last weekend – she didn’t eat for seven days without being sick. For those of you who have children – I am sure you know what that is like, masha’Allah.

Because we were sick – we also have gotten a week behind in school (that’s approximately 4 or 5 hours of work each day). So, we have been struggling to get caught up all the while preparing for a trip overseas. We not only have doctor’s appointments and immunizations – buying gifts for family – buying clothes and things we need – we also have to plan what we will bring for daily use – and what we will bring for school. Since we are behind, we will have to do some schoolwork while we are there (yuck).

Also – I actually don’t know the password to our account to update the files. When I don’t upload often – I tend to forget when there are so many other things happening around me! My husband is preparing for his finals so I haven’t wanted to burden him with finding it for me (he also doesn’t remember – lol!) Yes, we are a mess!

Anyway – I have the best of intentions and do not promise anything without actually wanting to have it done. It bothers me when I make a promise and then can’t get it done. So, insha’Allah – I will try my best to get it done before our trip.

 

Please forgive me if I cannot do it – but I will do my best, insha’Allah.

 

Also, please make dua for me – I have been going through some difficult times lately – health wise and in general. Your duas are greatly appreciated – Jazak Allah Khair.

 

I love you all for the sake of Allah – may He reunite us all in Jannah, insha’Allah.

Asalaam ‘Alaikum,

I Haven’t Forgotten You

Asalaam ‘Alaikum:

No, I haven’t forgotten that everyone is waiting for the Arabic Materials that I mentioned before Eid. I will try to upload them by next week – if not, insha’Allah, then in the beginning of next week. Things have been quite hectic over here – homeschooling and all. However, I’ve been meaning to do it – but it has been so long since I updated Yemenlinks that I forgot my password! Will fix that soon, insha’Allah.

Anyway – just wanted you to know that I haven’t forgotten you. These days the time just passes so quickly and I’m still trying to catch up, masha’Allah. I hope, insha’Allah, that the materials will benefit you and your families – schools – friends. If you do benefit from them – please let others know so that they may benefit from them too, insha’Allah. I know it’s not the best – but for many of us – it’s all we have. Insha’Allah we can benefit one another through them.
