It’s the Big Eid
And all the grandchildren will be in the masjid!
Won’t my parents be happy!
Eid Mubarak!
Chennette will even be here so FULL HOUSE! (she will be missing the salaah/prayer but will get here still in the morning).
Full House? Okay…my brother-in-law isn’t here but … two grandparents, four children, one spouse (should be two), three grandchildren.
Oh my oh my.
And we bought niece a penguin.
It may be sleeping with her at the moment.
It’s rather big.
I should read dimensions better on amazon…
And not much cooking going on…we’re tired.
It’s the Eid of sacrifice so…sacrifice happening…
and i need to sleeeeep!

What does the phrase “Id Mubarak” mean? I saw it in an email I was copied on. Thought you could help because it is the title of one of your Flickr photos! Thanks

There are two celebrations in Islam. We call them Eid or ‘Id. So that means holiday or festival.
Mubarak is blessings.
Eid Mubarak – Eid blessings!
