Bismillah
Assalamu alaikum
I say welcome
to you too, little sister [img]style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif[/img]
It is nice to have a young sister around too [img]style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I have a daughter that is only a little bit older than you, she is 14, but she is not very good at English, since she learns in first hand Arabic and French in school. And with me she speeks Swedish. Otherwise I would tell her to come here too.
About snakes, well many people seem to feel fear when they see them. Of course there are many snakes that are very dangerous, especially here in the desert, but I have not seen any yet, I say alhamdulillah to that [img]style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif[/img]
But I will tell you one thing that, at least a bit, changed my mind towards snakes. I was visiting Bangkok in Thailande and went to a snake-farm where there were mostly cobra snakes. And there I truly could study them CLOSE by. And somehow, this experience changed much of my fear for snakes. So it became much lesser.
But of course, we know that we have only One Protector and it is Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, and if He want us to be safe, so we will be inshaAllah.
See ya soon!
wasalam umm Z
