Simple & Calm Eid!

“Someone is knocking…get up sleepyhead!!” is the first sentence I told myself in Al-Eid morning. My Dad and younger Bro where knocking to wake me up and I did with all that knocking!!

I had a shower then I prayed and I took my dress out the closet. It was a cool light greet dress and I loved it!! I went downstairs to where my father, grandma and brothers were sitting and having breakfast. I congratulated all of them and sat having breakfast.

Before noon, two Indian men came to slay the sheep. I could not be anywhere around that place. For that, I went to my room in the second floor. Without noticing what I was doing I looked outside the window to see….the sheep already been slayed!!! I was not really that shocked or something besides there was not much blood…it was the first time for me to see that!!!

Many people came to visit, nabgours and relatives…it was nice seeing them again. A cousin called from RAK and my uncle Y too!! I wish if I can see them anytime soon. The thing that I really enjoyed is taking care of our visitors’ children…those kids liked me!!!

The night was so calm, like any other night in UAQ. I was writing my blog and my brother was sinking in his fantasy world while the younger one was watching a football game….about my granny and Dad, I believe they were sleeping ….
