Hello wonderful, amazing, sweet and lovely people,
Thank you for checking out my blog today! It’s been a while since I last posted, and I’ve truly missed sharing life’s journey with you all. So much has happened, and I’m excited to catch you up on everything me and my family have been up to lately.
Since my last post, we’ve had quite a few beautiful moments and milestones. We celebrated Christmas together—our home was full of laughter, warmth, and the smell of delicious food. Then came New Year’s Day, and we decided to start the year with a special treat: dinner at Fogo de ChΓ£o, a Brazilian restaurant that gave us a flavorful and unforgettable start to 2025.
But that was just the beginning!
We took another adventure as a family—exploring new places and making more memories. One of the biggest highlights for me personally is that I became a United States Citizen! It was a proud and emotional moment, and I’m so grateful for the journey that brought me here.
And yes—we’ve had the baby! Our sweet little one is growing fast and filling our lives with so much love and joy. She’s truly a blessing and a daily reminder of God’s goodness.
There’s still so much more going on, but I wanted to pause here to encourage someone reading this today:
Put God first. No matter what life throws your way, don’t give up on yourself. You are capable of more than you know, and even when things feel heavy or uncertain, trust that there is a purpose behind every season.
Thank you again for being here. I’m sending love and positivity your way, and I can’t wait to share more soon.
With love,
Maryam
