If there is a reason for a belly praise, this is it! Local dancer Fatimah Rasheeda gave birth to a healthy baby girl (Olivia Jade), weighing 7 lbs 1 oz, on Sunday May 11th, at app. 8pm. Born on "Mother's Day"... How precious! Olivia will be the next generation of belly dancer, but a belly dancer that can drum equally as good as she dances (cuz Drumopelli says so).

Fatimah is not on Tribe anymore, but you can reach her through MySpace. I'm not going to give out her private contact info. Regardless, if you know her and wish to give your congratulations, please wait a week and give her time to recuperate. Or, you can send your good thoughts to Satori Sunrise or J'Sane (of Satori Sunrise... the God Mother) on MySpace, and your messages will get passed along.

Thanks...
