Sarah took her first step, alHamdulillaah. She decided to show it off in font of tokpak, and luckily ibu was there to witness it. MashaAllaah, sarah eagerly walked on her own since then. From only single steps to a few steps in one day.

Independent is berdikari
Bismillaah
One afternoon after school, Adam came to me and proudly said," Ibu, today my teacher at school let me wash my cup after I've finished my milk."
Since then, I'll let him play with the dish soap and wash his cup and utensils himself. The same goes to Hajar. Maryam has not shown any interest in that area yet.
Hajar get to wash and clean her school shoes by herself after a few times of training..ehehheehe. She surely enjoyed playing with the brush and kapur kasut!, and to see the result:shining clean shoes!
I also let my syurgawan help me with the laundry. Whenever they offered to help, I'd give them the space. They sometimes raced to put the soiled clothes into the washing machine(which is fortunately a front loading washer), to put the detergent and softener into their respective compartments, to turn on the dials, and to push the buttons. I would be standing there to answer any questions they might have, and to manage any dispute between the siblings..ehehe.
We also had fun hanging the clothes to dry, and picking up the clothes at the end of the day. My syurgawan would ask "how to this and that?", "where to put this?", "should I do this?", "am I doing this correctly?", etc.
Adam enjoyed the 'you get the dried clothes from the rack, and throw them at me. I'll catch the clothes and put them into the basket' game. Ahahaha...an effective way to replace the 'throwing ball' game. I get my job done and my children had fun at the same time.
My syurgawan also get to have their hands on the mop, broom, vacum, etc. We do the cleaning chores together.
To sum up, this is not a child labor activity. This is to let them know I trust them. This is to let them be independent and be confident of themselves. I hope they will be responsible even for the smallest things around them, and do the things they can do themselves without putting the burden on others: their friends, colleagues, spouses, etc. InsyaAllaah. Ameen.

Gerbang Syurga
Bismillaah
Doakan gerbang syurga kami dikurniakan kesihatan yang baik ya. Minggu ini tokmak, tokpak, dan opah semua tak berapa sihat. Demam, lelah, dan gout. Semua dah pergi jumpa doktor dan sedang berehat.
Kami dah jumpa opah semalam. InsyaAllaah minggu ni nak pi jenguk tokmak dan tokpak pula.
Rahmati dan ampuni mereka ya Allaah, kasihi mereka sebagai mana mereka telah mengasihi kami semasa kami kecil lagi. Allaahumma Ameen.

Teeth
bismillaah
One effective way to have fun(I think) is to listen to our children's innocent conversations. They are often interesting and funny, and very enlightening too, mashaAllaah.
My sweet girls had a conversation over dinner tonight.
Hajar: Manusia kan ada 2 jenis gigi(Human has 2 types of teeth)
Maryam: Haah, satu gigi kuning. Satu lagi gigi putih.(Yup, one is the yellow teeth. Another one is the white teeth).
Hajar: Taklah. Kalau budak-budak, gigi susu. Orang dewasa, gigi kekal. Orang tua, gigi palsu!
(Nope. It's baby teeth for children, permanent teeth for adults, and dentures for old folks!)
LOL.

Bismillaah
I would like to start with our sweet Sarah. Tomorrow she will turn 1, insyaAllaah. My home birth was 1 year ago, and it still feels very sweet and will be remembered that way,always. One full year filled with blessings, cheeky smiles, bright days, beautiful nights, soothing giggles, energetic crawls and climbs, and meaningful cries. What not to love and be grateful with a huge blessing named Sarah? AlHamdulillaah.
At 1(insyaAllaah), Sarah is now able to climb the stairs super fast when no one was aware. She would smiled and babbled when caught in action. She has gotten four teeth that adorn her smiles beautifully. Everyday, her hair would be styled in the 'kelapa sawit' style. She doesnt refuse her baby meals anymore,and Sarah loves banana very much. She knows how to angkat takbir and rukuk and sujud whenever a sejadah was put on the floor, and Allahuakbar was proclaimed. She will follow along whenever the dua of traveling( or other verses from the quran) was recited in the car(in her own baby language,though). A baby's progress was simply amazing, mashaAllaah. Alhamdulillaah ya Allaah for your blessing.
Now, we move to Maryam.Maryam is a girl who has got her own unique personality. She loves hugs and affection, and would be very angry at things she doesnt like. She can be very loud at times, and be very quite and timid at other times. She would sit and do things that she likes whole heartedly, but would barely give attention if she was not interested. She likes drinking lots of water, but slowly reducing her foods intake. She still loves sweet, but cannot finish a lollipop by herself anymore. She loves upin ipin like Adam, and rarely paying attention to others cartoons or shows. The simplest way to calm her down was to just give her a warm hug.
Adam, our only boy. He is very talkative and energetic. He is very good at negotiation and mencuri hati. Drinks lots of milk,but requires constant reminders to drink more plain water. We thought that he needs more water since he easily caught runny nose and cough. He loves the trips to masjid and also a teh buih(teh tarik) session at the restaurant with abah afterwards. Knows how to read and write, but always wanted to speed read and write causing him to end up with lots of corrections to make. He was very hardworking when it comes to homeworks. Sometimes, loves to help with house chores and quite good at mengemas.
Hajar, our kakak. She is doing very good at Darjah 1. She is embarassed that her tooth fell out and now she is rongak. Another tooth is very wobbly now, and she refuses to go to the dentist. Not that she is afraid of the dentist, but she doesnt want to looose another tooth and making her rongak even more apparent. She would prepare her school bag and things she needed the night before by herself. She washed her shoes by herself too. Every morning she would go to kelas KAFA,the same place with adik Sarah, just at a different room and level in the house.so, sometimes, she would look after adik if adik was cranky. Kakak is a big help at home. She helps with adik-adik. Sometimes she can be very garang, but can be very sensitive too.

post PRU 13
bismillaah
we all have made it from Bangi-Penang-Bangi(add penang-kluang-penang for abah) walHamdulillaah. The excitement, the laughter, tears, joy, and disappointment were all there these past few days. We've planned, and Allaah is the best Planner of all. I am asking for every good in every situation, ameen.
It's time to move on, work harder and better insyaAllaah.
oh btw, syurgawan are back to school. alHamdulillaah that the sakit mata virus has gone(but, abah is still fighting it). We've decided that Sarah needed a new environment, which is hopefully better than her last nursery in terms of the cleanliness and learning and growing, ameen.

motivation
bismillaah
what motivates your day?
what has motivated us to continue living, fighting, smiling, giving?
for me, it is my one,supreme God, Allaah.
Him Alone is worth every seconds of my life, every single breath I take
then come my parents, my husband, my children, my people, my nation, my world.
I love you all, appreciate this short break - free time - before it is gone and filled with to-do's.

Pilhan ...
bismillaah
alHamdulillaah Sarah dah sihat sepenuhnya, sirna sudah semua sakit mata, selesema, demam, dan batuk. Dan giginya yang 2 batang kat gusi atas(gigi depan) sedang tumbuh perlahan-lahan.
Abah, Adam, Maryam, dan Hajar pula sedang pulih perlahan-lahan daripada sakit mata yang ganas itu. Mata depa dah tak bengkak dah, alHamdulillaah, merah pun dah hampir hilang. Tapi, masih lagi nampak sembab dan agak sepet(lebih sepet daripada mata sepet yang sedia ada.hehe). Semoga semua cepat sembuh dan sihat sepenuhnya seperti sedia kala.
Sarah dah masuk minggu ketiga tak pergi taska..horey horey! (maknanya ibu dah tinggalkan kerja lab masuk 3 minggu jugak yer..huwa huwa!)
Maryam dan Adam dah masuk minggu kedua tak ke tadika. Adam dah nampak sangat bosan tak dapat ke tadika, tapi kemaslahatan kawan-kawan di tadika lebih utama. Lebih baik dah sembuh betul baru pergi tadika supaya tak berjangkit dan merebak. Kasihan anak-anak tu. Maryam ok jer duduk rumah, alHamdulillaah.
Hajar pula dah mula ke sekolah minggu ini. Matanya pun dah tak merah walaupun masih nampak 'sembab.' Tak mau dia rasa ketinggalan sangat dalam kelas. Tapi, Hajar pergi sekolah petang jer, KAFA sebelah pagi tak pegi.
Abah pula tetap bekerja seperti biasa, gigih tanpa rehat, mashaAllaah. (How I want to be just like him, ameen)
Ok, sekarang kena demam lain pulak, Demam Pilihanraya, Semoga yang terbaik menang untuk memimpin kami rakyat marhaen, Ameen.

bila mata....
bismillaah
alHamdulillah a'la kulli haal, masuk hari ni dah hari ke-7 bekalan air ke rumah terputus. Ada masanya, bekalan air ada dengan tekanan rendah sehingga tak dapat masuk dan isi semula tangki air rumah di tingkat atas. Air kena tadah dari sinki dapur dan angkut ke bilik air untuk kegunaan harian. Basuh kain tak dapat sebab air tak cukup. Hujung minggu lepas, kami pegi ofis abah untuk mandi sebab air dah takde langsung.uhuhuhu....kain hantar ke dobi,itupun satu beg jer yang kebanyakannya baju sekolah syurgawan. Yang tinggal kat rumah masih baaanyakkk lagi. Allaahu yusahhil, ya Allaah permudahkanlah, ameen.
Hari ni juga dah masuk minggu ke-2 ibu duduk rumah. Minggu lepas Sarah kena sakit mata, batuk, demam, dan selesema. alHamdulillaah mata Sarah dah beransur pulih. Tapi demam, batuk, dan selesema masih ada lagi. Tapi, Hajar dan Adam pula terjangkit sakit mata. Mata Hajar paling teruk sampaikan dapat MC 3 hari. Tengok keadaan harini, rasanya Rabu pun tak pulih lagi mata Hajar tu. Kena kedua-dua belah mata. Kalau Adam, bengkak dan merah sebelah kanan je.
alkisahnye, susah betul nak bubuh ubat mata titik kat mata para syurgawan ni. Kena bergelut dulu baru diorang bukak mata, tu pun sikit jer. Ubat kekadang sangkut kat bulu mata jer.uhuhu..
Maryam pula, alHamdulillaah sihat walafiat.
Doakan kami semua cepat sembuh dan sihat ya :)

visitors
bismillaah
these past few days, Sarah and Ibu stayed at home. Fever, cough, flu, 'teething', and conjunctivitis (right eye only) decided to visit Sarah all at the same time, walHamdulillaah a'la kulli haal. My little Sarah was a bit cranky, but still maintain her good and easy attitude, adorable mashaAllaah.
she has shown off her latest acquired skills: threw a flying kiss, and salam+cium tangan ibu and abah. how sweet was that?
her tooth was slowly showing up on the middle, upper gum. looks painful ya as the gum was slightly swollen and reddish.may Allaah make it easy on her, ameen.

wacana
bismillaah
hari ini kami ke UKM untuk tumpang sekaki program Wacana Secangkir Teh, Pengubat Letih yang mana penceramah adalah Ustaz Hasrizal. Program sejarah Turki lah lebih kurang nya.
semua pergi, abah,ibu, dan para syurgawan yang memang teruja setiap kali pergi ke 'ceramah.'
sebelum ni memang tak berapa ambil tahu pasal Turki sebab Kamal Attartuk dan sekularisme yang diamalkan di Turki. Hanya sejak akhir-akhir ini bila Recep Tayyed Erdogan jadi perdana menteri dan reformasi Turki yang berlaku, barulah Turki menarik minat, sebab Islam 'berjaya' di sana. Ditambah lagi dengan Ustaz Hasrizal yang suka menulis tentang pengalamannya. walaupun belum baca lagi buku ustaz yang Secangkir Teh, Pengubat Letih, tu, tapi tertarik hati untuk mendengar wacana kali ini memandangkan penceramahnya pun baru balik dari 'lawatan sambil belajar' ke Turki baru-baru ini. Ada isu-isu yang segar dari Turki.
alkisahnya, memang menarik alHamdulillaah! sejarah yang diceritakan dengan cara yang menyedarkan bahawa sejarah bukan sesuatu yang membosankan dan tidak perlu di-dramatik-kan pun. Terlalu dramatik akan jadi 'exaggeration' yang boleh mencacatkan kebenaran yang perlu ada.
syurgawan? memang gembira beraktiviti di luar dewan: lari-lari,minum air,makan kuih, etc. Ibu dan Sarah jer masuk dewan(yang lain-lain sekejap-sekejap jer).
alHamdulillaah, program yang sepatutnya 4 jam jer tu jadik 5 jam. ehehe ilmu memang menarik dan kalau boleh nak tambah masa lagi kan.

The New Dawn
bismillaah
semalam para syurgawan tinggal dengan abah dan Sarah menumpang teduh di taska(sedih~). Ibu pergi mana?
alHamdulillaah, ibu dapat kesempatan pegi kelas alMaghrib di Taylor's Lakeside campus di Sunway. Kelas sehari tu nak belajar pasai FiqH of Tawbah: The New Dawn. alHamdulillaah thumma alHAmdulillaah.
Ramai kita ni ingat taubat bila dah nak mati jer kan. uhuhuhu...padahal rugi banyak dah kita ni kalau tak bertaubat banyak-banyak kali. Apa taknya, Allaah bukan sahaja ampunkan dosa-dosa kita tu, malah akan ditukar jadi amal baik pulak. 'top-up' over 'top-up'. haish, alangkah bestnya!
hujan, harta, anak, bahagia, ampunan, redha Allaah, cinta Allaah - semua ni boleh dapat dengan taubat. mashaAllaah tabarakAllaah. Allah has made everything so very easy for us that we dont have even a tiny bit reason to lose hope on HIM.

Gone with the virus
Bismillaah
alHamdulillaah ala kulli haal,
"Ibu, Hajar kena bawa gambar famili harini. Ada projek Bahasa Inggeris, macam ni," sambil menunjuk satu halaman di dalam buku teks.
Owh, kena bawak gambar, kertas warna, gam, gunting, dan benang, dan penyangkut pakaian juga. Nak gantung gambar-gambar tu nanti. Zaman sekarang ni bukan subjek seni jer ada aktiviti macam ni, macam semua subjek ada. Hampir setiap hari kena bawa kertas warna dan alatan lain ke sekolah. good? bad? what do you think?
Lepas tu, kalutlah nak print gambar memandangkan sekarang kita dah tak print gambar dan simpan hardcopy sangat kan. NAk print kat rumah tak dapat sebab abah bawa laptop sekali awal-awal pagi. JAdi, cadangnya nak print di printing shop kat fakulti. Semangat.
Dah sampai fakulti, terus ke printing shop tu. Boleh print dan fotostat kat situ. Pegilah kat PC yang ada label "untuk print color sahaja." Duduk, plugged in USB, dan try bukak gambar yang dah disimpan awal tadi(di rumah). Walla! tak nampak satu fail pun dalam USB tu kecuali folder "RECYCLER".virus infection, walHamdulillaah a'la kulli haal. To make it worse, ibu cuba pulak satu lagi USB drive yang memang ibu simpan banyak dokumen dalam tu, dan yang tu pun kena jugak.(sebab awal tu ingatkan USB yang rosak.Lepas yang kedua pun jadi macam tu, barulah perasan yang dah kena virus..erks!).
Hajar kecewa sebab tak dapat print gambar :(
alHAmdulillaah, sampai rumah dapat recover semua files ikut instructions yang di-googled.
p/s: balik dari sekolah, Hajar bagitahu, "tak jadi buat harini Ibu. Buat esok gambar-gambar tu."

A gate to heaven
Bismillaahh
Alhamdulillaah
We visited opah this weekend,the last time was a month ago.
Opah was not feeling well due to runny nose and a slight fever,may Allah grant her speedy recovery,ameen.
Adam got a coconut which he called 'mr coconut'.the girls wanted to ask opah for inai,but canceled it knowing that Opah was not feeling well.
We stayed overnight at opah's place and left early Sunday morning(not so early lah, 830-ish :P) because traffic heading south was expected to be heavy since it was the end of school's holiday(the traffic IS heavy right now. Somebody took 2 hours to reach Kampar from Ipoh. Allaahu musta'an)
Since it was still early, we decided to make a stop at Shah Alam's Public Library. this was our second visit and syurgawan were really happy! This time, ibu spent time with syurgawan at the Kids Zone and read several books for them. Sarah was enjoying the time guling-guling and crawling around the colorful place. She enjoyed sitting on the large, green bean bag too! Adam asked to play with the Mac computer, and he sat in front of it watching youtube videos for almost 45 minutes! He got 1 hour actually, but it was too long to sit in front of the screen LOL, So, he left the screen to join us.(he ran back and forth during the 45 minutes too: asking for assistance). Abah went upstairs and borrowed several books. After an hour+, we went to the cafe(hungry!) and had our brunch, sitting at the cafe with beautiful view of Shah Alam city. It was wonderful visit, alHamdulillaah.
That was our short and sweet weekend. We hope that you have spent some quality time with your loved ones too :)

ribut petir dan hujan
bismillaah
alHamdulillaah
Jumaah mubarakah friends :)
today was a mixed weather:sunny, gloomy, cloudy, thunders, and pouring rain walHamdulillaah. Blessed abundantly with rains.
Today Sarah didnt go to nursery since the nursery was closed due to the widespread infection of sakit mata. uhuhu. So, we stayed at home with Hajar while Adam and Maryam went to kindy. Abah was not home since yesterday, he was at Gombak attending a camping with KMS students.
Today, abah fetched Adam and Maryam from kindy and it was raining really heavily. Nice to mandi hujan at moments like this, but somehow syurgawan decided to stay indoors, hehe.

bowling & the museum, what's the link?
bismillaah
alHamdulillaah
Last Tuesday, we decided that our syurgawan needed a break from tadika and Hajar deserved a cuti-cuti Malaysia sempena cuti sekolah ni. So, our first stop was Kompleks Metropoint Kajang in front of Mydin Kajang. Adam really wanted to go bowling, and there was Ampang Superbowl there on the 3rd floor, and he was asking for Subway cookies too, and there was Subway on the ground floor(also got Cool Blog, Burger King, etc). Very convenient one stop, with only RM1 per entry underground, guarded parking. Nice, mashaAllaah.I have to mention that the place was not crowded on most weekdays during office hours!
So, we went to the bowling arena and found out that all lanes were sold out, lots of people! If we wanted to wait, had to wait for almost 1 hour lorr. After successfully pujuk Adam that it was more fun to go to some other place and do other activities, we left - didnt want to waste time waiting hehe. After that, we went to Subway and bought some cookies for syurgawan. "wah, bestnyer!" para syurgawan kata :)
Next stop, Masjid Negara, abah wanted to meet a friend there and as it was already Zuhur time, we prayed there. As always, syurgawan love all the beautiful and spacious masaajid around Malaysia. They love the sights of fountains, people, marble floors, etc. After solat, abah sat there and met his friend. Meanwhile, we went to the Islamic Arts Museum! Never been there before, and we took this opportunity to pay a visit.
Th entrance ticket was RM12 for adults and free admission for children of 6 years of age and younger. Discounted ticket of RM6 is available for students and elders. The museum has 2 levels of exhibition hall, a children library cum activity room, a special exhibition room, a cafe, and a lobby(ada lagi kot, but couldnt recall :P). Syurgawan seronok tengok miniatures of grand masaajid around the world, the kiswa(kaabah door's cover), the Qur'ans. etc. sebab tak ramai orang, depa pun berlari-lari dalam tu sambil tanya itu ini. nak pegi children's library, but it was closed :(
we spent about an hour there before we went back to masjid negara to meet abah. oh ya, kami jalan kaki jer sbb the two buildings were just opposite each other.
after that, we went home, tired and happy walHamdulillaah.

Library! - updated
Bismillaah
It's Sunday,and we went to perpustakaan Shah Alam!
the library is huge, beautiful, and practical,mashaAllaah.
It is located next to kelab golf shah alam(not sure the exact name :P) and close to TTDI Jaya. It has a lake besides it and the view was wonderful. We can see the dome of masjid Shah Alam from the cafe. 1st floor got the kid's zone. It is colorful, full of books, computers, and other facilities specially designed for young readers. Syurgawan were wow-ed by the sight and quickly dissappeared among the shelves and books. Noise is allowed haha :) very important for children since they love to express their feelings out loud kan, no shy-shy cat lorr.
They also has 3D theatre and XD room. it is RM7 per person for the 3D movies, and RM10 for the XD ride. We sent syurgawan to watch The Lion King 3D, but they only watched the first 30 minutes before they rushed towards the exit. My syurgawan were simply not accustomed to watching TV or the like for long, we didnt have TV for many years(and the one we borrowed from Opah was off for many days already, TV couldnt 'survived' in our household alHamdulillaah).
