The End of 2013

2013 is drawing its curtains soon.  So much has gone through and passed our lives this year.  You celebrated your 5th birthday quietly.  Not much fuss, as always.

Mama has already enrolled you in Dzul Iman next year.  InsyaAllah the school would be a good thing for you and you will get many new friends and learn a lot of new things.

You're such a good girl.  Most times, both me and Baba rarely need to press much discipline on you.  But sometimes you do act out and we deal with you accordingly.

Its almost like a dream.  One day, you're just an arms' length tall, and now you over my waist tall.  We love you sweetheart.

May 2014 bring more good returns for you and all of us who loves you dearly.

Happy Eid 2013

We wish all readers a Happy Eid 2013.  This photo was taken on the first day of Eid.  It took me a mouthful instructions to get these three to pose for this photo, especially Aishah (notice ruffled hair, after much coaxing from Danial for her to sit in between him and Khadijah.

The kids had a great raya (read as collected many angpows, ALHAMDULILLAH!). At least none of them fell sick during Raya despite hearing relatives and friends having flu and not in the best of health.

Hope you guys had a good festive holiday season as well!!

"Abang" & "Adik"

Lately, you've been playing with imaginary "Abang" and "Adik".

This normally takes place in the car and as Baba has strictly asked you to not jump around, you end up laying down most of the time, and playing with whatever you manage to get your hands on.  Yesterday for example, you were "fighthing" with your imaginary "Abang" and "Adik" for your pillow.  The dialogue goes something like this:

You:  Abang, don't take my pillow!
"Abang":  Its not your pillow, its Adik's pillow.
You:  No, its my pillow, not Adik's pillow.

Okay, so that went on being repeated for quite a few kilometres.  

I can't help but smile from ear to ear listening to you.  We know.  You're lonely.  InsyaAllah, let's pray for a real Adik to grace our home soon, okay?

Enjoying The Good Life

And here I am. Enjoying the quiet this moment offers. Both you and Baba already asleep. Possibly from the long journey back to Kulim. I am grateful for moments like this.

We're just on a short trip back to visit Tok, Tok Wan and Tok Mi. And of course everone else who normally hangout with on our trips back. Food is always a strong agenda, and from the moment we step into Tok's home, till the day we leave for KL again, I know we won't be short of having good food! Yummsss... A favorite spot to go would be (in no particular manner):
1. Nasi Lemak Mummy
2. Nasi Kandar Haja
3. Kuey Teow Goreng Sg Dua (telur ayam dibasuh.. No kidding, that's what the signboard says)
 Of course good food is always served at Tok Mi's house, courtesy of TokBik.

Tonight itself, we go to bed with tummy full of udang galah... How laaa mama nak,kurus?

Hehheeh... Good food, good company. Now. Thank You ALLAH.

Your First Birthday Cake (Slice)

We never over-indulge you.  Eventhough you are our first born, and currently only child.  And on your 4th birthday, we bought you your first birthday cake, albeit just a slice.

This is you having your birthday cake slice.

Never forget, birthday cake or no birthday cake, you are our beautiful princess!  

Love, 

Mama

Happy 4th Birthday

Its your birthday today!!!

Mama and Baba pray all the happiness in this world and hereafter for you our precious first born.  Be a good girl. 

Love Forever,
MaMa

Accessorizing the Ride

Your Baba recently had a make over for this bike.  Stripes of bike-related stickers adorn his motorbike much to his satisfaction.

Yesterday, you decided to offer some additional accessories.  Baba bought a new princess sticker book that comes with several pages of princess stickers.

You:  Baba, come letak this princess sticker on your moto
Baba:  Eh, no lah. I don't want
You:  Why? ish..nice la...this one (offering one sticker), cantik!
Baba:  Dont want laaa
You:  Come, take one.  All this new one you know. Nanti moto Baba pretty (proceed to try and stick one on the bike)

Baba already has a suspen face on.

Baba:  Its ok.  You stick in your book, k?
You:  Shakes head in disbelief, and walk away.  

Teeheehee.  Nasib baik.  If not, hilang baba's machoness.  His bike will be the laughing object of his bike-group.

Surely after this he will be on the look out just incase you sneek a sticker on two on.
