It's Gonna Be Tough, But My Dear, You are Tougher.

 


I know you are tired Abang.
Mama doakan perjalanan menimba ilmu Abang diberkati Allah, semoga Abang besar nanti berguna utk agama dan masyarakat, Amin.

from school to transit to KAFA to Kumon.

Ilmu Itu Penting.
Ilmu Itu Utama.
InshaAllah, Abang boleh.

Love, Mama.

May They Grow Healthily, Amin


kids are challenging.
and then lets talk abt when kids got sick, thats quadrupled the challenge.
they'll pass the sickness from one another.
started from runny nose, fever, muntah2, cirit birit and once recovery phase kicks in, there will be no more cirit birit, no more fever, maybe ended up with only runny nose.

those sleepless nights.
cryings.
waking ups.
throwing ups.
smelly linen. wet bed.

May they grow strong and healthy, amin.

Beautiful In and Out

Madam shared this pic with me yesterday.

May Allah guide you my beautiful princess.

Beautiful in and out.

You are soooo mch like me. I love me. I love you indefinitely.

Love, Mama 



Some of the Syarats

Somebody has to drive the mom and kids to and fro
Must sleep in our house
Must bring along the sibling
Must send the car for service
Must not enter the pool
Must close the sliding doors

Macam tu lah.
Lebih kurang.
Tapi tak pa.

This Is Me.
Kin

Maybe Because Im A Mom

As if the heart wanting to explode.

Hands were all icecold all day.

Restless Leg Syndrome for the whole week.

All would be gone once I have him in front of me again. Dia okay ja. Mak yang teruk sangat ni.

Maybe because im a mom.


I love you Abang.
May you fly high, always, with iman. Success in dunya and akhirah.
Love,
Mama

Happy 2nd Birthday Yunus

Dear Yunus my baby whale,
Happiest 2nd Birthday Syg ❤️

This is you now:
🐳Love going to the playground playing with Abg, Kakak and other big kids. You blend well boy!
🐳When I say “I’m driving Syg I cannot pick your bottle up now”, well that means nothing to you apparently. You’ll continue cry for help. We’ll continue work on this lagi k.
🐳You know your dinner routine once home from school. You’ll go “white chair Mama” – that’s your high chair. Will ‘jeling’ into the bowl dulu check out what’s for tonight before you agree to eat. Amboi!
🐳Literally will sprint off to the bathroom once you hear the word “bath tub”. Pandai dah use the laundry basket (Mama ajaq awai this one, senang Mama nanti). Kalau ada 5 bath toys, you need all 5 of them out with you once you’re done bathing. Tangan ada dua ja Nakkk. And oh ya, brushing your teeth is easy peasy, thank you. Clothing you not so much, pusing sana sini kick me in the eyes somemore.
🐳You communicate immediately for a change once you’ve pooped in the diaper. “Mama, see poopoo!
🐳You like the legos, vehicle toys (name it you have them all from cars to trains, airplanes to buses, fire engines and garbage truck – eventho most of them dah aged) and toy animals. Somehow your fave is Giraffe!
🐳Couple of month ago you “shower” yourself with milk just about every feeding time, not water, but milk! I smell like masam milk most of the time too, Mak redho Nakkk. It’s like being wet was your true happy place and being dry was not normal. Now that I changed your bottle teat, you found another option of staying wet with water from water bottle pulak! Splash boy this one!
🐳You are one groovy whale! You dance to whatever beats and Blackpink songs pun you sing-a-long (Babah ajaq this one). 
🐳Your fave book is “Where Is My Mommy” (obviously), hari-hari minta baca Alif Ba Ta, letters and numbers pun dah okay, Alhamdulillah. Ingat pesan Mama, cari ilmu sampai bila-bila k. Ada ilmu, boleh amal dengan baik, InshaAllah.
🐳You’re the sweetest when you say “Thank you Mama” when you get your fries and other things you ask. And not the cutest when you guling atas lantai not getting what you want. My goodness.
🐳You are fine if you’re in the same room with Mama. Once im off radar, you’ll go “Mama, where are you?”, “Mama, what are you doing?” cari sampai ke kitchen.

I can write forever but I should stop here. Mama doakan for everything ‘terbaik’ for my Yunus. Syukur Ya Allah for Muhammad Yunus bin Mohamad Ibrahim. Semoga Allah kurniakan kesihatan yang baik, soleh boy, bijak akal fikiran boleh berjasa utk masyarakat, well-mannered and semoga Allah grant all your doas beautifully nanti, Amin.

Much love ❤️
Mama Whale.

Mother's Day

Seingat dia, dua tahun dah si dia tak ucap Happy Mother's Day to her.
It's not okay.
But life goes on.
