I remember I was going to visit a poultry plant in Chattanooga in tenn when your other daughter Aisha was graduating from High School.I met them all and the bys too. Inshallah they will all graduate and we are all proud of them too.
My older daughter will be graduating from Montgomery College on the 17 th of this month ( Friday) ( She was the one who got married just about a year and half ago )
