Sunday 10th June
A quiet day at home. Eldest went horse riding and Bee went round saying hello to the horses when we went to collect her. One decided to nip me on the arm…apparently she gets jealous if the other horses get attention!

Eid is at the end of the week so starting preparations. Got the girls some sweets and did some last minute shopping of scarfs and bangles.

Tuesday 12th June
Rainbows today for Bee. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that because there were some gelatine sweets the leaders had made alternative arrangements for Bee. I had never mentioned she couldn’t eat sweets with gelatine that wasn’t halal….as Bee knows herself and doesn’t eat them. But clearly she had mentioned it to them at some point. Thought it was lovely of them to make the effort for her.

My Quran class in the morning and then a quiet afternoon at home. Beginning to feel tired now and ready for our Eid celebrations. Pleased with how well the flowers are doing in the garden.

Saturday 16th June
Bee has been saying she doesn’t want to do another karate comp after being punched in the face last time and ending up in tears…but this last week she has been saying she wants to go so took her….and she came 2nd and seemed to enjoy herself.
Well done Bee on her second place. Love the henna – it looks beautiful.
Hope you all enjoyed the Eid celebrations, the henna looks so beautiful. Lovely that Bee was catered for on the sweets front too #365
Aww! Those jars of sweets are so cute.
That is lovely that the Rainbow leaders went to the effort to make alternative arrangements.
The Henna is beautiful!

Eid Mubarak. That’s really thoughtful of the Rainbow leaders to source alternative sweets for Bee, all food in Dubai is Halal unless labelled otherwise and then it’s in a special area so it doesn’t get mixed up. Love the henna tattoos with the glitter
Well done to Bee on her trophy! The henna designs are beautiful, love how they match #project365
Hope you had a good Eid. It was nice of the Rainbow leaders to think about the gelatine.
