Seutas gelang,Segendong pujian membakar poket di hujang bulan.

Hari Jumaat hari tu budak rambut cokelat ni datang rumah dengan maklong.Mama balik petang dia dah ada kat rumah,duduk bersembang dengan uwan sambil makan kueh bakar.Mama pun suruh dia stay,hujan turun lebat betul,kilat sabung menyabung macam dalam cerita Pontianak.Hujan lebat tak bolehlah keluar nak beli food or even nak pergi pasar kebetulan barang2 basah dalam fridge pulak tak banyak..mama keluar semua benda dalam freezer dapatlah buat ikan selar singgang with tomato,goreng sawi dan goreng ayam berkunyit..apa pun kata kak nur and mak long sangat sodap.

Dah dinner,papa belum balik lagi,kak nur pun ikut mama naik bilik utk maghrib,after dah solat duduk sembang2,kak nur pun hulurlah mama this bracelet she bought from her trip in Bangkok.dah tu Kak Nur duduk la memuji mama "skin maksu tambah cerah lah,kulit nampak sihat ,muka nampak berseri lah..maid nur ingat maksu baru nak masuk30 tahun..dia cakap nampak muda sangat..maksu makan apa ada ke amalkan apa2"..aduhh tak senang duduk ni sebab dah kembang sangat..macam pujian dalam cerita Doreamon lah..mama pun tanya dia "nur apa sal asyik puji maksu ni..kau nak apa nur..kau nak maksu belanja ke..cakap yo la..apa pun segala yang kau cakap tu memang benar..maksu terima pujian itu se adanya"...Haaaaa..haaaaa..rupanya budak nur ni birthday dia dah terlepas..hmmm kalau nak suruh belanja makan cakap aje lah..kok susah2 gitu..so esok kenalah membakar poket di Italianies untuk si rambut cekelat and pengiring dia kikin. Apa pun nak tahu apa mama jawab kat kar nur bila dia tanya makan and amalkan apa "nur maksu basuh bontot tia mia tiap2 hari dah 2 tahun setengah i guess it helps..mesti ada vitamin yang tinggal lekat kat tangan..nur cubalah"...ha..haaaa..

Budak dua orang ni lah yang gelar "Kak Nur rambut brown" dah tu complaint kak nur tak beli bracelet untuk dia..kadang2 geli hati mama..dua orang kenit ni dah pandai berebut barang hiasan dengan mama..rambut pulak walaupun nampak sungguh curl actually at the top dah mula lurus..yehaaaaa sungguh gumbira mama ada harapan nak lurus ni..tapi budak dua orang ni ikut muka sapa ya..mama memang rasa rupa mama,..ye lah anak mama kan..bersempit-sempit duduk dalam perut dulu..sampai kadang2 macam ombak perut mama,Mia sentiasa duduk belah kiri..kejap2 macam bergaduh dalam perut..

Fikir2 macam rupa siapa budak dua orang tu,semalam mama snap gambar mama and sent to papa without any comments. Papa pun balas, ni lah email yang buat mama senyum :

"Mama got big eyes,like Tia...full lips like Mia..."

ewahhh rupanya mama yang ikut dia orang bukan dia orang yang ikut mama yer papa:)

then mama tanya ngengada lagi:

"mama cute or not?"

papa jawab " Cuteeeee"...he..hee..suka hati mama

Ni lah dua orang budak yang mama ikut rupa dia orang ni haaa..malam2 gosok gigi sebelum tidur..Good Girl!.

Educational Weekend

The two girls love their black t shirts very much,it seems that mama got to buy more black t shirt now:) Weekend as usual Saturday was Shichida class, on Sunday papa had to be somewhere near airport and the two girls tagged along. It was an educational trip for them,they learnt about aeroplane, departure,take off,landing, baggage,MH,hangar and they managed to make friend with other girls too..good for them:)

Saturday after Shichida lepak at their favourite waffle stall, waiting for chocolate waffles.

"Kakak we are hungry..we want waffle and hotdogs"

Meet the Giant Cat..she is so big and super duper fluffy

Yey we love cat..so soft,so cuddly.

Mama can we keep this cat????

Mama Tia wants two cats mama..not one but two.

Sunday at the airport,the girls checking the area...they said airport is "airplane house"..very good girls.

"Tia hopefully one day we can fly okay..we fly together okay..we do you want to go? We want to go cannes to meet Mr Beans"

"One only...there is one aeroplane only and she is asleep"

"Pretending that we are waiting for our flight to Cannes or paris or London or Munich..he..heee"

Tia is interested to see what is going on before the plane take off..she asked a lot of questions.."what is that", "is aeroplane sleeping?" " kakak can see ambulance" "kakak can see MH, D4,D3 etc".."kakak can see smokes".." aeroplane tail is blue"..

Many many aeroplanes..

The two girls enjoying their trip.

Happy,happy..Tia and Mia two different characters..everytime we come to a new place Tia will observe first to see whether it's safe or not,if she doesn't feel good she will ask to go home,same goes with people she will give sometimes before giving her sweetest smile.Mia on the other hand will welcome adventure quite fast she will say "adik brave lah"..bagus jugak both can compliment each other,Tia more carefull,at least she can take care of adik.

Excited seeing many flags at the airport:)

Papa is tired and he wants to eat..so lets go and eat.

We went to KFC as there is 'airplane playground" there...

Bubye mama kakak going to cannes...

New friend..the girl loves to entertaint Tia and Mia..and both likes the girls too.

Chocolate time.."rock chocolate for roxy girls":)

Husband Dearie Listen to this.

Cisssss....this is what they think about us women..slap right,slap left and pinch on the most strategic place..ouchhhhhhh...padan muka!!!

Husband put down whatever you are doing now and listen to this khutbah jumaat..very good for your soul as the country will prosper if all wives are happy:)

God instructs men to be nice to their wives and treat them well to the best of their ability:

"...And live with them in kindness.." (Quran 4 :19)

The Messenger of God said,The most perfect believers in belief is the best of them in character.The best of you are those who are the best to their women."(1) The Prophet of mercy tells us that a husband's treatment of his wife reflects a Muslim's good character,which in turn is a reflection of the man's faith.How can a muslim husband be good to his wife? He should smile,not hurt her emotionally,remove anything that will harm her,treat her gently,a nd be patient with her.

Being nice includes good communication. A husband should be willing to open up, and be willing to listen to his wife.Many times a husband wants to air frustrations (like work).he should not forget to ask her about what annoys her her (like when children would not do their homework etc). A husbnad should not talk about important things with her when he or his wife is angry,tired or hungry. Communication,compromise, and consideration are the cornerstone of marriage.

Being nice includes encouraging one's wife.The most meaningful admiration comes from a sincere heart that notices what really matters - what the wife really values.So a husband should ask himself what she feels most insecure about and discover what she values. That is the wife's sweet spot of praise.The more the husband compliments it,the more the will admire it, the more on target this healthy habit will be. Kind word are like " pandainya wife i" "amboi cantik betul hari " "you masak memang tak de orang boleh lawan"

Human being are imperfect.The Messenger of God said, "A believing man should not hate a believing woman. If he dislikes something in her character,he should be pleased with some other trait of hers.'(2). A man should not hate his wife because if he dislikes soemthing in her, he will find somehing he likes about her if he gives it a chance. One way to be aware of what he likes in his wife is for the husband to make a list of a half dozen things he appreciate about her.Marriage expert recommend that one be as specific as possible and focus on character traits - just as the Prophet of Islam recommended , not just what she does for the husband. For example, a husband may appreciate the way she arranges his clean laundry, but the underlaying character trait may be that she is thoughtful. The husband should consider admirable traits such as being compassionate,generous,kind,creative,gentle, cheerful so on. A husbans should give himself some time to construct this list, and review it in time of conflict when he is most likely to feel averse towards his wife or when he dares to think about having an affair with another women!!! As the fact is the wives got everything and he need not to look for another woman.

Conflict in marriage is virtually inevitable and it leads to lot of anger.Although anger is one of the most difficult emotions to manage,the first step step toward controlling it can be learning how to forgive those who hurt us. Yet forgiving is another most difficult task to do and this is something that we need to find within ourself.

If husband could be more thoughtful like sending flowers to the wife..even the wife will say "alaaaa tak payah lah bazir jerr" tapi kalau dapat mesti dia tersenyum lebar:) With that happy weekend to everybody.

When there's no 'dak duk dak' :)

Last nite slept nearly 2am,since gave birth to the 2 kenits my sleeping hours is less than usual.Sometimes i sleep really late but didn't experience mengantuk during day time pulak and for the past 2 1/2 years i didn't take nap during weekend(which was the usual& wonderful practice during the single and without kenits time). So since mata tak ngantuk lagi last nite i watched Astro Movie "Cleaner" starring Samuel Jackson,Ed harris and Eva Mendez..kalau ada Samuel Jackson ni mesti lah penuh blood cerita tu,that's for sure and last nite true enough Samuel was an ex police, dia quit and kerja jadi cleaner untuk crime scenes.Really dasyhat kerja jadi tukang cuci crime scenes tu, kalau homicide case,the blood was really teruk until tengok pun nak muntah. Then as i expected mesti lah ada problem besar dengan si Samuel ni kena set up or perangkap etc..hmm memang lah yer, I sometimes after dah penat kerja siang malas nak nak tengok cerita2 yang boleh menyusahkan hati ni..nak yang relax2 yang boleh bawak otak berangan and that is the reason why i always tengok travel and living,the food channel or the most brutal program yang i tengok pun is "Midsommer Murder" suka betul dengan Mr Barnaby hero tua tu:)

Anyway story nak cerita hari ni bukanlah Midsommer Murder review or pasal si samuel tu haa..bila tengok Ed Harris pelakon separuh abad yang jadi kawan Samuel malam tadi somehow mengingatkan pada seseorang. The seseorang tu bukanlah mat salleh macam Ed harris tu tapi kaki Ed Harris yang panjang tu yang membuat kotak ingatan berputar..weird kan..itulah bahana pukul 2 tak tidur lagi:) During the unidays ada sorang kawan baik ni tried to buatkan date for me,this kawan baik ni boyfriend dia a rugby player for the Uni so orang yang dia nak kenalkan tu adalah Captain Rugby Player lah..kan kalau kita tengok dalam cerita2 highschool kalau captain football ke rugby ke semua jadi rebutan "tall and very the macho"..and semua cheerleader pun tergila-gila. Dalam my case pulak tak lah tergila-gila kat rugby player or any sport man because i bukan bukan type yang gila kat 'tall,dark and handsome" ni or orang badan hijau berketul macam Hulk.Since my friend memujuk bagai nak rak satu malam tu ikutlah dia keluar,there were four of us,we walked from our Uni to the nearest shopping compleks,not that near actually since my friend bercita2 nak bagi lebih masa nak berborak comply je lah.But me despite the guy was not bad,very macho body,tall,dark,polite and boleh lah di kategori kan sebagai handsome tapi masa mula2 jumpa tu tak de langsung "dak duk dak" dalam dada.Dah makan balik pun jalan kaki and until now tak ingat sepatah haram pun apa topic berborak masa tu.Dah jumpa once tu i guess the rugby player kinda of suka me and he asked out to watch movie through my good friend lah of course.My good friend yang jadi fairy god mother ni pun datanglah bilik i memujuk tanpa henti macam pujuk Dang Anum kahwin Sultan Mahmud.malas nak layan,complied and we went to watch movie..langsung tak ingat apa nama movie tu but can remember clearly tempat pergi makan since I memang suka makan, at that time ada "Grandy's"..memang suka the porridge with many condiments.Since this rugby player budak KL after movie,after makan dia pun bawak2 keliling KL ni cerita macam2 masa dia kecik mana area dia suka pergi,mana bapak dia bawak pergi makan etc until we sampai kat Petaling Street..suddenly jalan2 he stopped kat kedai fresh flowers and beli me bunga..aduhhhhh..kalau dalam hati ada "dak duk dak" mesti seronok gilerr kan..mesti rasa romantic gilerr..tapi sebab tak de "dak duk dak" dalam hati..dapat bunga sangatlah sebal..rasa nak nangis,,nak ambik hati peganglah bunga tu dalam 5 mins after that terus masuk handbag..sebab handbag kecik patah 3 lah bunga tu.. and i guess hati rugby player pun patah 3 jugak:)

Bottom line nak cerita..kalau tak de "dak duk dak" memang susah apa pun tak jadi..after dah balik kolej i told my friend suruh cakap kat rugby player thanks for everything but it seems there will be no more dates or keluar sama2 lagi,tak de apa yang salah with him but it was just me. Rugby Player was upset i think..bukan upset marah but upset sedih..he was a gentleman jugak upon hearing that the next day he came to kolej and asked me why? it is too early..tak boleh cuba kawan2 dulu ke..me with my strict (kinda stupid some people said) attitude told him "it is better this way".So tak de lah jodoh nak duduk bersorak kat tepi padang tengok orang main rugby sambil jerit "huh haa..huhh haaaa"...my good friend ni jodoh bersatu with his rugby player hingga kini dah beranak pinak.

"Dak duk dak" element is very important..love is very unique,the chemistry, bonding is something that you cannot describe. Since i susah nak kena the dak duk dak feeling ni macam2 lah orang jumpa..kadang2 ada jugak "false alarm dak duk dak "..macam dari jauh kita tengok orang tu kita rasa really suka,mula2 jumpa macam head over heels tapi bila dah bercakap bagai kita rasa "ehhhh pasal apa tak best pulak ni".I pernah met somebody dashing with lots of money,tersohor and of course rasa teruja bila mula2 tahu dia suka kita..but bila ada peluang mengenali baru rasa ' ehh he is not that great..he is not the one". It is like memuja rumah impian yang nampak dari jauh,rasa bestnyerr kalau dapat masuk dan duduk dalam rumah ni tapi bila dah masuk dalam rumah ada peluang untuk menghuni rumah itu kita rasa ehhh walaupun cantik tapi tak sesuai untuk aku rupanya..kalau hanya cat atau perhiasan yang kita tak suka boleh lah cuba mengubahnya tapi kalau structure rumah itu sendiri yang kita tak suka akan roboh kalau kita cuba merobah.

Macam tu lah magic rasa cinta itu..kalau kita dapat mengecapinya syukur alhamdulillah tak terkira..kerna bukan semua yang bernasib baik diberi peluang dan bukan semua ada kesempatan merasa "dak duk dak" di dada.kalau bertahun tahun sudah bersama rasa 'dak duk dak " sudah mula nak hilang ketuk2 lah pintu dada biar bergema semula. Haaa..haaaa cerita cinta pulak hari ni..ye lah hidup mesti sesekali menghiburkan hati..kenangan hebat yang indah kebanyakan nya datang dari remaja..dari situ kita bina kehidupan yang lebih kukuh structure nya..kalau structure kukuh partner baru sampai luar pagar pun kita dah dapat rasa 'dak duk dak" dalam dada...haaa..haaaa...sungguh macam cerita drama melayu saja..tapi itu perlu kan kalau tak tak de lah orang tergila gila nengok "Nur kasih" tuuuuu:) (walaupun saya enggak pernah nontonnya:))))

How Do You Measure Happiness?

Few days back had a chat with a good friend,she has a good life now,holding good position at a big corporate company. But after sometimes like mama we envy those friends who can afford to become "lady of leisure".So seronok if you don't have to work 9 - 5, so nice if you can have money tranferred automatically into your account without you having to work . We talked about our friend who is now making very good money from her own run legal firm,she work really hard and she deserved every single cents of her money. Another friend of ours is a truly "lady of leisure" didn't have to work since day one sho got married, her husband has chain of money changer business plus many others, she just stayed at home looking after her only son who is now attending Sri Cempaka private School. having said those and in whatever situation there must be plus and minus points,the lady of leisure envy pulak kita orang yang working ni, after sometimes she macam hilang confident, her MIL pulak everywhere that she goes will be there and the system in the house is so strict that everytime her MIL dropby and if she is on the phone with me she will say 'azu..azuuuu..aku tak boleh cakap MIL aku dah datang"..she sounds really takut and risau and she even told me kalau MIL is in the house for dinner she must wear proper dress to eat and greet her properly like "good evening mommmyyy"...hmmm that's all that i can say.
Therefore tak de kayu pengukur kebahagiaan..reason being, happiness tu is something deep inside your heart,kena really sincere dengan diri sendiri untuk tahu berapa banyak kebahagiaan kita. Barangkali kita tak perlu hadiah handbag LV RM40K macam Datuk Siti untuk bahagia,barangkali kalau tumbuk sambal belacan dan suami kita makan berpinggan hingga berpeluh itu dah cukup untuk buat kita tersenyum sepanjang tengahari.Berapa banyak perlu bahagia pun bergantung kepada individu itu sendiri ada orang perlu bahagia 24 jam,7 hari seminggu dan 30 hari sebulan..hidup dia mesti teratur segala kalau ada sesuatu tak dapat macam nak achieve sales target bulan tu contohnya boleh buat dia murung sepanjang hari tapi ada orang kalau dapat mengecap bahagia 1/2 jam pun seperti orang yang pasangan baru dinikahi tapi selepas tu terlibat dalam kemalangan dan meninggal dunia,kebahagiaan yang 1/2 jam tu dibawa hingga ke mati. kadang2 dapat bahagia sekajap we treasure sampai ke hujung kalau bahagia selalu pulak w etake thing for granted.Ssebagai manusia biasa hati ni kadang2 degil..tak mau mendengar kata..so selalu kena usap hati..cakap dengan dia "hati, kalau kita dapat bahagia 1 jam dalam sehari pun dah cukup..syukur..ada orang tak kenal langsung bahagia".So how....jom usap2 hati kita:)

Nak bahagia jangan berdengki-dengki..nak pijak,sepak orang lain...worth kah kebahagian kita kalau macam tu?

Nak bahagia jugak tak boleh bercakaran..kalau kita berjaya menyakiti hati orang tak semestinya kebahagiaan milik kita...kalau orang menangis kerana kita sampai bila kita boleh meloncat bahagia..malam2 tidur dapat tersenyum ke kita..

kalau ada duit boleh lah bawa hati jalan2 melihat tempat yang indah..perlu reward diri kita,perlu jaga kebajikan diri kita... orang pertama yang patut jaga diri kita adalah diri kita sendiri..

tapi kalau kurang duit..duduk di taman pun sudah cukup..makan ice cream "Mat Kool" pun sudah heaven..sebab bahagia bukan di celah kota paris,bukan di tepi pantai St tropez tapi ..terletak dekat jer kat kita..dalam hati kan..maka kita kena lawat selalu (cewahhhh iya ke tak nak pergi paris,st tropez..hehhhh..tipu hati ni....kihh.kihhhh..haaa..haaa..berangan kan memang indah..no boundaries:))

Memang seronok, no make up for mama,no tie for papa,no crazy boss,no crazy individual from the office,just us: one family together. Come let see our cik a bum bum bum activities.

Dua orang ni suka swing2, this week went to Kelana Jaya Park.Both are wearing "Mr Beans Shoes":)

Always amaze by the fountains..suka nak usik2.

After dah penat we stopped at one Chinese muslim restaurant by the lake to have breakfast.

The interior is quite cosy..tapi most of the restaurant kat KL ni guna lampu ikea ni..mentang2 lah murah..RM19 per piece if not mistaken:)

"Mama are you okay"..Tia now suka tanya mama macam tu:) mama will say "yes mama is fine..thank you,how about Tia?" she will say "Tia okay..thank you berry much...Tia is trying her best to speak in English nowadays tapi sebab dia tak boleh practise with uwan and heni dia kena tunggu mama papa balik dulu..so kadang2 dia jadi macam translator..bila uwan tengok MR Beans and cakap "kelakar" Tia will say "funny lah uwan not kelakar", bila uwan tengok octopus and says "sotong" she will say "octopus lah uwan..try, try now say "octopus"..

After dah berpanas kat park cold honey barley lime is uhhhhh..uhhhhh

Hmmm pandainya..joget cik a bum bum bum..or as Mia said "shake your bon,bon"..hee..adik pandai ni..

Dah habis breakfast,naik kereta nak pergi nursery..
