AMNQ Blog Post #12

"He pats me on the head and doesn't let me go into the kitchen with the women, but makes sure I sit right next to him. I'm embarrassed, but I like this, being the special one."

This quote REALLY stood out to me. Nadira is really starting to feel special and like she has a place in the world. I think that she is SO used to Aisha being the one with all the parental credits that she is very excited when her father is praising her and being extra nice to her (after all, she DID save them from being deported). I also think this could have something to do with Aisha being so listless that Abba doesn't really have something to praise her for, so he is turning to Nadira for a daughter to praise but I mainly think that he is praising Nadira for her bravery. I think that Nadira should be really happy. I think that this is a step in the right direction for her and her family life.
