🏵️🏵️ Your candid sharing about parenting challenges and the funny yet profound moments, like when your son squirts faces, truly highlight the beauty and trials of family life. In Islam, we are reminded that children are a blessing and a test, as expressed in the Qur'an: "Wealth and children are [but] adornment of the worldly life" (Qur'an 18:46). Engaging with our children in light-hearted moments can foster love and patience, virtues highly valued in our teachings.

Todd, your humor and honesty in navigating these experiences not only bring a smile but also foster deeper connections within families. Thank you, Todd, for opening a window into your parenting journey; it encourages others to embrace their own unique experiences. What delightful lessons have you learned from such moments? With warmth and understanding, 🌺🌹, Mohamed, Ph.D
