It’s been long.. It’s been long!
The blog sure needs some mowing. I could see not only grass has gone
wild in this pasture but cripples too has conquered many parts of it.
So many things and events had taken place for the last 5 months or so,
good, bad and the in between. But let’s leave the bad aside and just cherish the good ones because seriously, there're too many good ones that the bad one just seems unseen.
In
the big family, we had weddings, engagements, Raya this year which was so much
better than last year’s though I was forced to do office work during the break,
welcoming new family members … among many more other happy events.
In my immediate family, of course Nada has the most to tell about which
I just do not know where and what to start.
She really talks a lot now – Malay and English equally used. Kelantan
dialect, she’s trying so hard to master. Sometimes I just can’t seem to believe
what came out of her 5 year old mouth.
On one Sunday at Ikea, she missed the boat in her queue to enter Smaland by
just couple of kids in front her. I told her the next session would be at
7.30PM which really boiled her up that she had to wait for another 1 ½ hour.
In a single breath, she just needed to let the steam out, almost
shouted at me :
“This all your fault. Not my
fault. Why do you come here late? I am so upset with you and angry. You stay
away from me. Don’t come near me!”
… o my.. I almost crawled on my knees hearing she said that.
One night, out of the blue she asked us :
“When Mommy and Daddy were
children, you meet is it? Then, did Daddy ask you – will you marry me?”
... like, why would she thought about it?
We celebrated our 9th year wedding anniversary the night
before 20.08.13 at home. Only us, where I bought a Baskin Robbins cake for the
tiny celebration we had.
However to Nada, all cakes are for her. Hence, she wasn’t happy that
the cake was not meant for her, till the extend she sobbed so badly. I didn’t
want her sulking for too long and told her that the cake was indeed for her.
She asked me : “Why do you buy cake for me ? My birthday is in January.
Now not yet January”
Clever mom I am, I told her : “O… I bought you the cake because you did
well in your spelling bee at school.”
She was delighted with the explanation.
The next night, that is the actual day of our Aniversary, we had
steamboat at Johnny’s we called it “NADA’S SPELLING TEST EXCELLENCE CELEBRATION
DINNER” instead of Anniversary Dinner. Talking about the extent parents would
do to make their kid happy, huh?
Of course, handmade dos that I wish not to miss the blog.
I also managed to make this cute baby smock romper for Baby Naquib…. And of course, a pair of cloth shoes to match. Owh.. I'm in love with that boy already.
