This is surely THE one Mother's Day that I will never forget. Today, May 13th 2012, my ten year old Nadiah has her period for the first time. Yes, she is now officially a woman. I pray to Allah that everything would turn out alright. That she would be calm and accepting and doesn't fuss about wearing sanitary pads.
I have heard many tales from parents with children of autism or down's syndrome, about how hard a time their children have when having their periods. So far Nadiah seems calm and happy as always. And I pray she will always be so.
Here's Nadiah.. on THIS day in her life..
Happy Mother's Day
to all the mothers out there!!
