Children Updates

Salam and warm greetings...

Felt like sharing stories on my children today. Farhan is getting more difficult to be waken up in the morning. I am beginning to question my move on buying them the triple deck bed yesterday. I'm wondering the time I need to allocate to wake him up every morning. Academically, he is showing interest in his studies, except that he gets very tired in the early hours of the night. So, we only have time for his homework before he hits the sack. Revison could only be done during the weekends. If mama is not busy playing mother to the other kids.



Khadijah is a doll. She loves the attention and will do her mighty best to please me. Sounds good? It would sound better if she ain't a water tap princess . In her attempts to be close to me, she tends to hit her sisters to push them away from me. Before you judge me any further, I do shower her with love and attention. She simply refuse to accept the fact that she now has 2 younger sisters who require my time and attention as well. She is always bickering and fighting with Farah, who is a resemblace to Farhan. In attitude... But, waking her up is amazingly easy, getting her ready for school is effortless. She loves her books, her pecils, her colours, anything related to school. Her favourite phrase at the moment is... "Mama, cikgu kata saya ..." followed by whatever that she needs at that moment. Sigh... I planned to enroll her to preschool at SK Panglima Adnan, a primary school near my school. Mr. Fred is against the idea for fear who would do the transporting during my going away to meetings or courses. He prefers the school near his shop so he could send her off home after school, to be taken care ny my maid. True... but I don't see her progress in learning as I go home a bit late. She is a picky eater and she is getting thinner by the day. So I figure that by sending her to my neighbouring school, I could feed her better and while waiting for me to call it a day at school, she could finish up her homework or do a little reading. If she is tired, she could just take a nap at the back of my resource. But... what happens if the Nazir were to pay a visit? Do I shoo her off to the canteen? Hmm... Have ample time to think before register time comes. What do you think?


 
Farah... I think she is supposed to be born a boy. With her boundless energy and antics, she is the delight of the house. Yet, she is a handful. More than Farhan, the only thorn among the roses. She is the fairest and loves lipstick, despite not liking to put on clothes, skirts and dresses. She looooovvvesss overalls. We feel that she is the cleverest and wittiest among all. She is able to pick up things fast, most of the times untaught. So, mama and papa kena lebih berhati-hati when uttering *#@$ words and behaviour. She caught us smooching the other day, and she went up to the father and slapped his mouth, saying no and wrong. Tak boleh buatler tu kononnya.(Eh, boley on air ke ini story? Aiyoo ..) Yesterday, when her papa asked her to take her bath, she answered... sabarle, cebot ni. (be patient, I'm busy). We ended up in stitches at this 2 year old answers. Macam-macam budak2 sekarang nih.


Fatin is still brestfeeding, with 1 tooth and another coming out. She is very cuddly, manja with everyone, especially me and her grandmother. She is very cool and patient, willing to wait for things or for Susi's attention when Farah throws tantrums in the house. She only has very few vocabularies but very often uses the word nak and bak. She loves to eat. Biscuits are a must in the house. She only make noises when she isn't given any food at a long break. She loves to smile and dance. Imagine, while breastfreeding, she could still jiggle her body to the tune, making me yell in pain. Sakit wooo... 


These are some the stories on the kids. Just like any other families, we have zillions of other stories to share. But, I'd settle for these first, ya? There'll be more next time, insyaAllah.
 
Moga Allah kekalkan kebahagiaan ini, semoga kami senantiasa di bawah nikmat dan rahmatNya. AMIN!
 
And to my other half... Happy Anniversary dear. May there'll be more anniversaries to come. I love you sayang!
