One of those conversations..



My not so lil D comes up with the most interesting Gems now and again. Smart Alec!

So as not to forget I shall try to preserve those "gems" in here now and again the following was what I remembered most:

(1) Lil D at 3

I Laf youuu..


(2) lil D at 4

In the car.. his Dad and I were having one of those random conversations that was very animated it may seem like a debate.. the lil guy was at the back playing his game.. quiet. The conversation got more animated and the lil guy gave his best "stern" voice and went.."Come on guys.. cut it out .. don't fight" hahahaha...I had to explain to him that Mommy and Babah were not fighting.. we were having a conversation.. and he said .."Not too loud guys" :P who is the parent here??!


(3) Lil D at 2 months after turning 5 years old

We were going around looking for a tailor that does an Army Uniform for his end of year concert. We had lunch but I did not get a chance to bring him to the lil men's room . So his Dad kept annoying him.. D... do you need pow pow..he went .. Nooo... the Dad did not stop there.. he went.. D.. you surreeeeee you don't wanna poo poo.. and he went noooo no needdd..and his dad went.. you sureee you dont wanna sheesheee.. by now he was growing tired of his Dad's incessant questions... His Dad asked.. your bag dont want to go to poo poo? D said.. NO!.. the dad laughed at his own jokes (I was busy playing scrabble on the Hubz iPhone)..what did the lil guy say.. Babah.. you ALWAYS make bad JOKES! hahahaha.. I almost peed on my pants.. the Hubz did not have a good come back for that! hehe..

The pic on this post is of Lil D with a schoolmate in their cute lil uniforms :) adorable!

(4) Lil D at 5

The Lil Guy have been pestering me for a lil sister or brother.. he says ada baby dalam parut mummy ..I want 2 okay.. and I say InsyaAllah . . you pray that Mommy can give you a sister or brother okay.. and he went off happy. The next day he ran into the room and say.. Mom I dont want baby.. no need to have baby.. and I went WHY ? he said.. I dont want you to get cut open when they need to take the baby out.. (I have noooo idea where he got that from either)! I had to explain to him that Doc's can do wonders and I wont feel any pain.. :P Then he said ok .. I want 2 ..If only Babies grow on trees!

After coming home from getting some stuff.. the lil Guy and I lingered outside admiring the moon..It was full moon. The moon looked so Big and Bright tonite.. Danial and I was appreciating it outside the house.. I said ...wah D the Moon look soooo Biggg and prettyyy... D said.. yessss.. its so Bigg and brightt.. why is the moon following me all the time :P heehhehe..

I love these moments..

TWENTY TWELVE


The first month of Twenty Twelve is almost gone.. the second months is upon us.. my how fast time is moving past.

Have been feeling physically and emotionally tired after a jam packed end of Dec 2011 and early Jan 2012. Got back to work and we had a strategic prioritization done..stuff on my plate..is tremendous!

Trying very hard to snap out of this malancholic feeling and get on with it.. what is clear is this..I refuse to read to much into things.. but I am only human . We feel ..We hurt.. We get annoyed..We worry.

On the home front.. My D came home telling me he can read . I took that with a pinch of salt, the week before we had done some reading and he was hesitant or not very confident although he can actually spell and sound the letters phonetically.

To my surprise.. this week he read 30 sentences surely and steadily.. oh I was sooo sooo proud! the more he progressed the more I cheered him on the more he was excited to spell and read. Alhamdulillah.

His maths (addition) was going very well too.. he loves his numbers it appears.

Am praying that this continues just so he does not have to face any more difficulties when he goes into Primary 1 next year. A big year next year and Hubz and I are still undecided as to which school to send him to. I hope we make the right decision and its a decision we will have to make fast in order to ensure he has a place to go to.

Hiatus

A lot has happened since my last post.. one years + worth of stories.. let's try to recap": (1) The Casa that was supposed to be ours did not fall through.. so we are still with the "in-laws" *sighs*. (2) My Uncle suffered a very bad stroke.. after christmas ..it was a trying time for the family for the first part of 2011..he survived but was left a shadow of his former self. You see the old him at times but .. such was the extent of the stroke. (3)2011 has been a year of many many many change in the office front.. it has brought on stress and huge huge upheaval some good ..some not so good. Restructuring on a 360 degree level..you can imagine what cleaning up and changes that needs to be done. That would seem to present the 2011 for me.. it does seem to feel though that it is the fastesssttttt year ever .. it was difficult and very very hard at times but I wonder the saying "time flies when you're having fun" have any truth in them :P (4)Was so so looking forward to end of 2011 because it was my cousins wedding.. and would be a long hard earned break! As I write this I am on the way back from that "break" .. it turned out it wasn't much of a break ..since the day I before I was due to fly back home for a 2 week long break..My dad suffered a stroke..mild .. considering his hemorrhaging.. he fell in the bathroom and no one realized he collapsed since he was alone on the ground floor for at least 6-7 hours.. he survived and has mobility but will need to undergo extensive physio and speech theraphy. (5) Lela's wedding went well.. happy for the bride and groom.. as all weddings it wasn't without its own drama.. but what matters most.. the bride and groom are blissfully happy and enjoying their honeymoon as we speak.. (6) Still no sibling for lil D.. :( (7) on a happy note.. sis in law J is with child and I will insyallah see my first Nephew in March 2012! My sis in law in Turkey (Hubz Sis) gave birth to a gorgeousssss baby girl..two other sis in laws ..(2 of Hubz brothers wife) each will get a new addition.. Alhamdulillah.. baby boom indeed in 2012.. wait a cousin in law is also preggers.. wahhh 4 new addition in 1 year .. Rezeki MinAllahhh :) may Allah give me that rezeki too insyaAllahhhh . I am now at the airport.. waiting for the plane.. back to "life" work starts tuesday.. hopefully it will not be as intensive and will be kinder to me..May Allah Guide me and grant me mercy ..Amin!
