the sweetest thing

a few nights ago
i had served the girls dinner
and was making salah
before eating myself.
i saw sanaa in my peripheral vision
doing something, but kept on.
after i finished i went to the table
and saw that she had finished eating her food,
then used her plate to fix me my plate
and put it in front my chair at the table.
i was SO touched
that my daughter has fixed my plate
by her own volition
that almost cried.
