My mom would recognize yours in a heart-beat, then? Did you guys ever get to meet Daahir Xiireey and his sister Kifaayo who moved to Seattle from Atlanta about 8 years ago?

I am rarely at home but have been told both my Murusade nanny and close Murusade acquaintances of my mom and saw me as a baby have been over a couple times. Am assuming the acquaintances included reer Xiirey.

I've been to Bayl a few times when I was a kid - largely because the whole family worked there at one point or another. It was later dismantled and sold, I would pass by the empty compound near the airport road & notice the absence of the sign & lack of the trucks that usually used to be parked outside. It was a major employer & kept a lot of families well-fed, but like all good things in life, it came to an end - too soon. I heard the old man took it hard too, but he later opened a hotel and had a few other business ventures that kept him busy. I saw him again in '06 - he was still the funny and lively dude I remembered from my childhood.

I bet you everything if I tell you my mom's nickname back in Xamar, anyone who worked at Bayl or any of your Murusade relatives would know my mom. Xiirey proposed to her more than 3 times, before a reer Siyaad Diini man scooped her up. She was considered the most beautiful girl in Muqdisho at that time and her famous nick signifies that. I only have to tell you that nick and any Murusade reer Xamar would know cuz they were most of our neighbors. Timiro Qanyare was the one who took my mom to hospital Benadir during her fool with me while my dad was at work.

When you said Renton, was going to say on the 405 but you said Eastside which is either Bellevue (Bill Gate's home) or Mercer Island and the only Somali family I know that lives there is the brother of the first Somali surgeon in Somalia (Mohammad Adan Sheikh, Marehan, Celi) and his family. He was the former Central Bank chairman in Somalia. You know Jangeli?

Cali Gaab, because you are a reer baadiye.
