No Title!

Malam ni tadi kami pergi beraya di rumah saudara Fendi dan isteri beliau S. Meriah sungguh - ramai tetamu yang datang, tua dan muda semua ada.....jamuan Satey ( Ayam, daging, kambing dan arnab) dan Soto sungguh enak! Saudara Fendi berbaju biru dalam gambar di bawah sedang membakar Satey! They were such gracious hosts...semua yang hadir mendapat layanan istimewa......

Selamat Hari Raya EdilFitri...!

All of a sudden tonight I miss my other three children who are not with us here in Dubai.

I was planning for a Hari Raya open house, and I was overwhelmed with thoughts of them - in faraway land. This year will be the first time ever that we as a family will not be together during Hari Raya.
Tonight I understood how our parents must have felt when we were not with them to welcome the first of Syawal. ....

I wanted to know their plans.

Along and Achik will be driving to Melaka on Wednesday to spend Raya time with their Grandma ( My MIL ). Both LiL and I are happy in a way, that MIL will have them for company. Otherwise she will be alone unless my BIL returns from JB, which is unlikely given the nature of his job. Already, Along is buying some Raya cookies to bring back to his Grandma. He is also preparing his first ever Duit Raya to give away….my advise was, Sikit pun tak per Along asalkan ihlas….ikut kemampuan sendiri lah”.Achik, will be bringing his course work along, for he will face an exams immediately after Raya.
Along and Achik is separated by three years, however in size they are equally bigger than me….and in personality they are also equally happy go lucky. Along reported during a phone call, “Kita present kat Achik baju Raya – dia siap tanya pulak, seluar tak de Along?”.It is heart warming to see and hear how these two get on and along very well…..more like good buddies than like competing siblings.

Angah, is as independent as a girl her age can be. I asked whether she wants to fly to Dubai for the Raya, and politely but confidently she said, “Ayah antar je la duit tiket tu biar Angah buat belanja tuition kat sini….lagi pun cuti sekejap jer Ayah”. Wise girl!In a way, I am less worried about Angah knowing that she has many friends there and also knowing that our friend the faraway doc is close by – These husband and wife Docs have been more like a foster family to Angah from the first day she arrived in Dublin. To both Doc D and Doc M, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart.

To Along, Angah and Achik – Selamat Hari Raya! Enjoy ….Mak, ayah dan adik2 will always be thinking of you!
To all our friends and relatives out there





– SELAMAT HARI RAYA – MAAF ZAHIR BATIN !
Yang kurang itu kami....
Yang terkasar & tersalah itu saya....
Ampun Maaf jua saya pinta!
