Mom and Part 2

Part 2 really is coming...inshallah tomorrow. In the meantime, enjoy yesterday's phone call with Mom. At the end of our phone call, she quickly said:

Mom: So do you dress like one of those Islams? (My Mom hasn't seen me for years...)
Me: Mom.....we're Muslims, not Islams and what do you mean? They all dress different.

I know what she meant... Do I look like one of the women on the news that she sees. Probably Iraqi in all black as seems to be the norm there. I hardly ever wear black... Anyhow...thought it was amusing that I will always be an Islam to Mom, and never a Muslim.

Gotta love her. And I do.
