Mom story

By Aaisha   After almost a year, I decided to take a break with my kids and visit my family in Dubai. It was a fun-filled, refreshing, entertaining, and energizing trip. It’s not like we did a lot, but just being there with each other and spending quality time. I traveled with my parents and brother and headed for a journey right after my kid’s exams. They were as excited as I was. My brother and sister( partner in Mom Story) live there. We talk about separation as living away from your siblings is also tricky. So the four of us would sit together and chat away. Our bhabhi, our partner in crime, is part of all the fun, and we cherish this bond very much. Late-night fun, long drives, teasing each other, and laughing nonstop was the highlight of our trip. Not to forget the children! And Masha Allah, we had our little nursery with kids of all ages. They became friends, played together, fought with each other, and drove us crazy most of the time. But it was all worth it. We brought b

By Aaisha نوری محفل پہ چادر تنی نور کی نور پھیلا ہوا آج کی رات ہے چاندنی میں ڈوبے ہوۓ دو جہاں کون جلوہ نما آج کی رات ہے Eid e Miladun Nabi is one of the major festivals that Muslims celebrate. We commemorate this occasion on the 12th of Rabi ul Awwal. The followers of Rasool (SAW) celebrate the glorious day of the Beloved Rasool's (SAW) birth with tremendous zeal and passion and show their devotion to the Beloved Rasool. My daughter's school also had a vast Eid e Milad U Nabi celebration a few days ago. Teachers, staff members, kids, and parents were all accordingly attired. The girls were sporting gorgeous bright-colored dupattas with their white shalwar kameez. The boys were dressed in stunning white kurta pajamas. I attended the function along with my mother. A lovely recitation of the Quran Majeed with translation began the ceremony. The junior class student then recited the Hamd. Then the chain of graceful Naat started. My daughter actively participated in the Naat group a

By Aaisha & Amna Through generations, a mother's house is heaven for a daughter. This place becomes even more special once the girl gets married and settles into her new home. The warmth, comfort, love, and easiness of a parent's home are unmatchable. You will not find it anywhere else in the world.  When I see my children get excited on Friday afternoons, rushing to get their homework done so they can go to Nani's house, it brings me immense joy. It reminded me of my childhood when I used to go with my mum to her place.  Allah Pak has indeed made mothers with lots of love. They do things for us that are so mundane, but their love and care make them so valuable. My mother would also prepare my favorite dishes and my children's. Now they wait to meet the kids more than me.  When I was pregnant with my little one, I stayed quite a lot at my parent's house, so my third child, Aaira, got super attached to my parents. Only they could do all her chores. So she calls m

By Aaisha Assalamu Alaikum, My name is Aaisha,  and I'm a mother of four—two girls and two boys—and a housewife. There isn't anything special about me because I'm a standard housewife. However, I want to step outside my comfort zone and try something new.  My only goal is to have fun and spice up a little. I started looking for activities a housewife could do while sitting in her room because I felt a little depressed about my regular daily routine.   As my brain gradually began to function, I decided to start writing. I looked into the subject but discovered that everyone was talking about everything except us - the housewives. Since I live in Pakistan with a very conservative family, people assume housework is easy, and housewives lead comfortable lives. Still, they don't realize that it is just as exhausting to be a housewife as it is to be a working woman.  A working woman gets a day off, or a holiday, while a housewife works every holiday, every leave, and even eve
