Bismillaah

Alhamdulillaah, Hajar and Adam went to Islamic Institute of Orange County!!! where Sheikh Muhammad ibn Faqih serves as the imaam. Abah went to the lecture, Hajar and Adam went to the nursery =)

MashaAllaah, the masjid is very beautiful, but the community is even more beautiful. Lots of people, friendly faces, and we've met a few Malaysians( we've met in an alMaghrib class and several Malaysian events before)

Hajar and Adam were very happy to meet many friends of their ages. They've made friends and got into the playing groups pretty fast, mashaAllaah. Ibu was quite impressed at the progress since at first, ibu was worrying they couldnt make friends easily due to staying at home exclusively =).

Alhamdulillaah, the decision to brave through Los Angeles' super busy freeways on a Friday night really well worth it.

Oh, and these are pictures from our trip to Islamic Center of SoCal, near downtown LA last week.(no pics from the IIOC trip yet)

bismillaah

Ahad lepas, kami pergi ke big Sunday di SC Islamic Center. Hajar dan Adam seronok dapat jalan-jalan keluar, berjumpa kawan, dapat main di play ground, dan join solat jemaah =). Ada ramai orang yang datang untuk menyokong aktiviti Islamic center dengan membeli barangan dan makanan di booths yang ada. Buku-buku di bookstore pun ada diskaun 20%. Alhamdulillaah. Tapi, matahari terik dan cuaca agak panas berbanding biasa.

Alhamdulillaah, sekarang Hajar dalam proses potty training =), Adam belum reti lagi tapi kekadang dia pun nak tiru kakak.

Los Angeles sudah mula terasa bahang musim panas....

Bismillaah

ceria, gembira
senyum dan ketawa

berlari, terjatuh
kulit tercalar dan menangis

dipujuk, diam
dan tenang kembali

proses belajar dan mengenal
membesar dan dewasa

Kids love bubbles


and lots of other things...
