Did you know Jordan has Mother’s Day at a different time than us? This year Eid al Um was Thursday, March 28th. At the jama3ia we celebrated by having a “family holiday,” where the children made cards for any woman in their life that they loved.
I planned the program and brought in the supplies to make “Family Day Cards” … the best part of all this being that almost all the arts and craft supplies came from MY mom in America (courtesy of Michael’s!)
The kids loved making their cards and showing them off to us. I got some cards too, with every possible spelling of “Miss Julie” you could imagine (Juli, Jolie, Joli, Jooli, Joly).
In the end it was a great day.. and made me miss MY mom a ton. <3
Julie in Jordan!
