Beautifully Me Flashcards
Salaam!
Beautifully Me
Yesterday I woke up before the sun.
Beautifully Me
I knew it was going to be a special day.
Beautifully Me
It was my first day of school
Beautifully Me
I put on my blue overalls and pink shirt with the fancy puffy sleeves.
Beautifully Me
Amma had it made just for me in Bangladesh.
Beautifully Me
I twisted my hair into two pigtails with my lucky butterfly clips and slid on my bangles.
Beautifully Me
I ran to my parents’ room to show them my first-day outfit.
Beautifully Me
Baba was helping Amma wrap her yellow sari around her body.
Beautifully Me
She looked so beautiful - like sunshine and mango lassis.
Beautifully Me
Look at this tummy - I’m getting too big!
Beautifully Me
Why was Amma so sad?
Beautifully Me
Remember to practice your Bangla.
Beautifully Me
Can I have oatmeal instead, Dadi Ma?
Beautifully Me
Why don’t you want the parathas I made for you?
Beautifully Me
MY tummy cheered as I smelled the flaky, butter bread in front of me.
Beautifully Me
I’m on a diet.
Beautifully Me
I want to lose weight so I can look pretty in time for the school dance.
Beautifully Me
How could she say no to parathas?
Beautifully Me
She is funny and smart and as sweet as laddies - that’s my favorite dessert!
Beautifully Me
Why would she say she’s not pretty?
Beautifully Me
I want to look good for my first day of school.
Beautifully Me
Should I go on a diet too?
Beautifully Me
Baba popped his head into the kitchen and jingled his keys.
