Howdy and welcome everyone to the blog. Today I want to talk about why I love illustrating for children’s books. But, before I get into the topic I wanna share a couple of things first. My name is Ameenah and I am a wife, mother, homeschooling parent and I’m a children’s book illustrator. This blog is my space to share my thoughts, ideas, stories, family life and behind the scenes work.

You will find spelling errors and grammar mistakes…..trust me. It’s not intentional. As a mom of 8, doing several things…I’m gonna miss some things.  And in this day and age I hope you all appreciate the humanness of my work. 

Let’s chat…

Salaams and howdy! Welcome to Mariam Poppins blog! This is the place where I share my thoughts, behind the scenes content and some things that are happening here at MP. Not sure how you ended up here but I’m glad you are here!!!! 
My name is Ameenah and I am 1 of 2 at Mariam Poppins. 
The other human is Abdullaah and we are a team. Let’s talk about it. 

Salaams and howdy! 👋🏽

Welcome to the blog. My name is Ameenah  and I’m a wife, mama, homeschooling parent and children’s book illustrator and art educator. I’ve been wondering for some time, what is the best place for me to write about my family, art and all the things. 

So with so much going on, I’ve decided to start up here on the website. Before I start writing anything I want you to know some things.
