(Around Vildes birthday, July 13)

Yousef: Hey chess-queen, are you awake?

I just came home, went with my preggo sister for a late night walk to get ice cream, cravings

Sana: still awake! nice walk?

Yousef: Yeah, sure, nice to have time to talk with her

Any new future questions for me tonight?

Sana: Like what?

Yousef: well we covered career plans, living abroad and religious dialog with my future kids…

Sana: So what is next… housing?

Yousef: Ok future house dreams… what is important in a home?

Sana: balcony and bathtub!

Yousef: I love your balcony

Sana: You’ve never been to my balcony

Yousef: I’ve seen it from the backyard!

Sana: stalker!

Yousef: :D

what else… big kitchen table

Sana: well with 12 kids you must!

But even without 12 kids, big kitchen table is very important in a home, that’s where everybody meets up, to study, pay bills, get something to drink

Yousef: and some of us even cook in the kitchen ;P

Sana: nooo! 4real? they do that!

...

Yousef: So when was the last time you played chess? I am playing backgammon here all the time (not enough patience for chess)

Sana: hmmm I’m not sure. I played a lot one summer in Morocco, with my dads friends, drinking tea and playing chess. They were so amused, this 11 year old girl from Norway, and I got so excited and gloated every time I captured the opponent's pieces.

Yousef: ha ha I can totally picture that!

Sana: Once I even manage to get a pawn all the way over to the other side and get a new queen. I didn’t win in the end but I was happy all week about it! My little black pawn had managed to become a queen

Yousef: Awww, cute

...

Yousef: I have send you something

Sana: What? Where?

Yousef: With post… on it’s way to Norway as we chat

Sana: wow, you can still do that? post things ;)

What is it?

Yousef: Just something I found at my grandparents that I thought you might like

Sana: tell me!

Yousef: no, it’s a surprise!

Sana: >-( I hate surprises!

Yousef: ok, then I take it back!

Sana. You can’t, it’s on it’s way, or do you plan to rob the post?

Yousef: Dayum, you’re too smart

Sana: Vildes birthday today - party on the beach!

Yousef: Say hi, and happy birthday from me
