I’m grateful for my 7 month old son. I never knew I was capable of this level of love.

I’m also thankful for my therapist, because juggling being a new mom and this job is something else 😂

I'm grateful for my family. At 30k feet, we seem to be doing alright. Decent jobs, great kids, all of us very successful and doing well in a lot of ways. I have to remember this sometimes and be grateful for it, because far too often I'm thinking to myself that my wife is nuts, the kids are idiots, and we all belong in a home for our dysfunctional lives, as I feel like I'm hanging from a thread trying not to lose it through the pressures of work and home life.

I think volunteering as a family can help install the value of giving back and zakaat. How can one make Ramadan and Eid something to look forward to when holidays like Christmas seem to be purely joyous occasion that one doesn’t have to put in work for like fasting for Ramadan?
