I opened my eyes.
“Where's Dad?”
“Here I am!”

Dad opened the curtains.
In came the light.
Light… and more light!

I opened my hands.
Dad tickled my fingers.
I giggled. “Again!”

I pointed to the cup. “Water!”
Then to the plate. “Bread!”

“Gifts from Allah,” said Dad.
“Alhamdulillah.”
“Alhamdulillah,” I said.

Dad opened his arms.
I opened mine.
One big hug…
and a giggly start to the day!
