Author Description

Several years ago my husband and I went to Cairo to sign a contract with a Fortune 500 company for a year-long project. We were met at the airport by Ehab. He was our body guard, guide and driver. To the Egyptian Government we were important people. A few months later we sent our daughter along with a team of facilitators to deliver our programs. During that time, our daughter and Ehab fell in love, got married and came to Chicago to live with us. How many of you have had family come to stay? It's great until it's not. My house is filled with strangeness: Foul smelling cheese in the fridge, a prayer mat facing Mecca, and quote's from the Quran hanging in the living room. 1. Say: In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn. 2. From the mischief of created things; 3. From the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads, 4. From the mischief of those who practice secret arts; 5. And from the mischief of the envious ones as he practices envy.I think I'm the mischief.
