Your Mother

Really love this song... reminds me of my beloved mother... and of course, to remind my kids of me... hehe

Who should I give my love to?

My respect and my honor to?

Who should I pay good mind to - after Allah,

And Rasullullah?

Comes your Mother,

Who next? Your Mother

Who next? Your Mother

And then your Father

Cause who used to hold you

And clean you and clothe you?

Who used to feed you

And always be with you?

When you were sick, stay up all night,

Holding you tight?

That’s right no other, my Mother

Who should I take good care of,

Giving all my love?

Who should I think the most of - after Allah

And Rasullullah?

Comes your Mother,

Who next? Your Mother

Who next? Your Mother

And then your Father

Cause who used to hear you

Before you could talk?

Who used to hold you

Before you could walk?

And when you fell, who’d pick you up?

Clean your cut?

No one but, your Mother, my Mother

Who should I stay right close to?

Listen most to?

Never say no to – after Allah

And Rasullullah?

Comes your Mother,

Who next? Your Mother

Who next? Your Mother

And then your Father

Cause who used to hug you

And buy you new clothes?

Comb your hair and blow your nose?

And when you cried who wiped your tears?

Knows your fears? Who really cares?

My Mother

Say Alhamdulillah,

Thank you Allah

Thank You Allah for my Mother

my kids really like this song... when ever we're in the car, they would ask for this song... one way of teaching our kids to respect their parents, through stories and songs...

Rehlah Bersama Sahabat @ Teluk Kemang

Last weekend we went to Teluk Kemang with some of our friends. As we arrived there, we had to take Fathi to a clinic first coz he got a fever... his temperature was high that day. Then we drop by at pasar malam on our way back to our home-stay. Got myself a pair of Minnie head-rest for my car seat... :p

at a clinic in PD

Anis was exhausted that she fell asleep all the way to the clinic

Fathi, asleep after got his medicine

Aisyah and Amal were thirsty after a long walk

That evening, we took the kids to the beach. They were so happy, except for Anis who refused to go. She wanted to play with bubble instead... She was so sad. She cried, especially when seeing her papa disappeared (my hubby dived in)... poor Anis...

such a beautiful view... love this pic

my hubby went for a diving... huhu

The time we spent there was priceless... It's because we got the opportunity to strengthen our friendship and most important is, we got to know each other more... We had fun too... Our kids were so happy to play with their friends especially when they were at the beach, well, except for Anis who was forced to go there... huhu... can't wait to have another trip like this....

Basic Skincare

Before I was married, I know nothing about skin-care or make-up. All I care was to at least have my face protected from the UV ray - either using sunblock or creme, that's all! Never had lipstick put on my lips! Never had whatever kind of make-ups applied on my face! Then, after I got married, and we joined a business with our friends, I gained a priceless knowledge (for women - for men too actually)... that is the Basic 3.

What is Basic 3?

Basic 3 is the basic skin-care. It is important not to just women, but also men. Why? Because our skin needs protection from the UV. The basic 3 consists of Cleanser, Toner and Moisturizer or Creme. The purpose of using these skin-care products is to maintain a healthy skin. Doesn't matter whether we want to look gorgeous or not because skin-care is not cosmetics.

Cleanser

It cleanses our skin as it exfoliates, renews and refines.

Toner

It removes any last traces of make-up, dirt and cleanser.

Moisturizer/ Creme

It increases moisture content of the skin.

Skin Type

In choosing a suitable type of skin-care, we must first know what type of skin we have. It's either Normal to Dry, Normal to Oily or Sensitive. Me, I have both Dry and Sensitive... huhu... makes it hard to get a suitable one... but Alhamdulillah I've found one, and I'm gonna stick to it!

Thanks to my friend for telling me 'bout this. Really appreciate it. I know that it's a common knowledge, especially to women, but I truly didn't know 'bout it. Now, everytime before going out, I'll make sure my skin is protected with Moisturizer which is combined with SPF20, especially on sunny days....

Walimah Seorang Kenalan

Alhamdulillah weekend baru ni kami dapat menghadiri majlis aqad seorang kenalan di Gombak. Walaupun sebelum ni kami hanya pernah bertemu sekali jer, itupun masa first time kami berkenalan di Giant Batu Cave beberapa tahun yang lalu, tapi kami selalu berhubung melalui sms. Mudah-mudahan ukhuwwah yang terjalin ni akan terus berpanjangan... insya Allah... dan kepada kenalan kami, Yusra, kami mendoakan mudah-mudahan jodoh Yusra dan suami berkekalan ke akhir hayat... insya Allah...

Bahaya Naik Motor Pakai Selipar

Sekadar gambar hiasan

Weekend baru ni, kami keluar beraya ke rumah bos hubby kat Templer. On the way ke sana, ternampak sorang pompuan naik motor ngan hubby dia (kot). Pakaian agak seksi - t-shirt lengan pendek dan seluar/skirt pendek, menampakkan betis. Dah la tu, pakai selipar pulak tu!

Kat sini, saya tak nak cakap sal aurat la coz kalau tak silap, pompuan tu chinese (rasa-rasanya lah). Yang menarik perhatian kami, cara pemakaian ketika menaiki motor. Kebanyakan orang tak ambil berat sal pemakaian dan keselamatan ketika menaiki motor ni. Especially pompuan. Bagi mereka cukup sekadar memakai topi keledar. Pakaian pulak, mesti menampakkan lengan dan betis, kononnya nak suruh nampak cantik la. Tapi sebenarnya membahayakan mereka sendiri. Kaki pulak cukup sekadar ditutup ngan selipar. Hai....

Saya pernah accident ngan hubby masa mula-mula kawin dulu. Masa tu kami on the way ke tempat kerja. Jalan jam. Tetiba jer ada sorang pakcik tu keluar simpang secara mengejut. Hubby pun elak la. Masa tu hubby bawak motor cam biasa, slow jer. Tapi kami terjatuh gak. Terkejut masa tu. Alhamdulillah la sikit jer luka. Hubby luka kat tapak tangan, saya luka kat siku. Pakai lengan panjang dah tu!

Cuba bayangkan, kalau lengan panjang pun boleh luka, apa akan jadi kalau pakai lengan pendek jer. Mesti lebih parah lagi! Hubby cakap, bila jatuh motor, first kita akan tahan dengan tangan. Kalau tak pakai glove, tapak tangan kita akan sakit. So, kita akan tahan ngan siku lak. Kalau pakai lengan pendek, siku kita pulak yang akan sakit. Kita tahan ngan bahu lak. Kalau bahu sakit, kita akan rebahkan badan. Last-last, habis semua luka! Kalau setakat luka, ok lagi. Maunya patah tulang bahu. Tak ker siksa tu....

Ok, masuk bab kaki pulak. Bila kita nak jatuh, mesti kita akan tahan jugak ngan kaki kan. Kalau pakai selipar, maunya tercabut kuku cam kawan saya dulu. Tercabut kuku ibu jari kaki dia masa dia jatuh motor dulu, gara-gara pakai selipar. Ngeriiiii!!! Tiap kali kami ternampak orang naik motor pakai selipar ni, kami rasa risau sebab kami tahu bahaya dia. Belum terkena belum tahu. Tapi, baik lah tak kena.

Syukur Alhamdulillah la kami tak pernah accident teruk. Sebab tu lah kalau kami nak naik motor, kami akan pastikan pakaian kami tu sesuai - lengan panjang, seluar panjang, stokin dan kasut. Hubby lak pakai glove, baju reflector. Kat helmet lak, tampal reflector kat belakang dia. Dan disebabkan tudung saya labuh, kawan kami nasihatkan supaya saya pakai sweater, takut-takut tudung tersangkut kat lori ker, atau mana-mana yang boleh menyebabkan accident. Maklumlah, naik motor ni kan berangin, tudung asyik terkibar cam bendera :p

Bila accident, yang paling kesiannya, pompuan la. Kalau dah luka sana sini, mesti akan tinggalkan parut. Parut kat siku saya sampai sekarang pun tak hilang-hilang... huhu... Alhamdulillah la sikit jer....

Sayang la kaki ngan tangan yang cantik tu, anugerah Allah pada kita untuk dijaga dan untuk dipertontonkan pada suami. Kalau dah berparut sana sini, nak tunjuk kat suami pun rasa malu, betul tak?

Casa Impian @ Deko Bersama Najdah (",)

Alhamdulillah pagi tadi lepas Aisyah gi sekolah, dapat mulakan kerja pengubahsuaian sikit.... heheh.... bunyi ubahsuai tu cam besar jer projek... takder lah.... sebenarnya, kami dalam perancangan untuk jadikan rumah kami lebih kemas dan teratur, tu jer.... bukan cam dalam Casa Impian tu.... yang tu costly.... tak mampu ler.... :p

Mula-mula, drill dinding kat dapur dulu.... nilah first time drill sendiri... seumur hidup tak pernah guna... dulu masa kecik-kecik, tengok jer ayah atau abang drill dinding, sekarang baru dapat merasa... seronok!

Dah sudah drill, pasang dish drainer kat atas sinki. Kami beli yang stainless steel, tahan lama sikit, tak karat. Hmm... senang guna yang walled-in ni, tak ganggu space kat atas sinki. Tak nampak serabut. Memang berbaloi beli.

Pastu pasang rail pulak kat dinding sebelah. Nak gantung bahan-bahan masak ngan supplement biar teratur sikit. Pun kena drill jugak. Alhamdulillah la weekend baru ni dapat beli drill kat Giant, tu pun last stock model tu. Lepas ni, senang la sikit nak buat kerja-kerja pemasangan ni. Kalau dulu paku terus jer. Tapi tak cantik la dinding, pecah-pecah. Guna drill ni, nampak kemas jer....

Pastu pasang shelf untuk letak sabun-sabun. Bila dah tersusun rapi camni, nak amik pun senang.

Kat pintu toilet, letak towel rail. Murah jer, beli kat IKEA. Rupanya kat IKEA ni ada jugak barang-barang yang murah. Barang dia pulak, berkualiti. Berbaloi beli. Tapi, sebenarnya kat IKEA ni barang dia tak mahal, kalau dibandingkan harga ngan kualiti dia la. For the long term, memang berbaloi. Pastu, furniture dia unik, kita boleh design ikut citarasa sendiri. Cuma buat sementara waktu ni, belum berkemampuan lagi la nak deko-deko ni...

Dalam bilik princesses pulak, pasang shelf. Senang nak simpan toy yang besar-besar, Muqaddam, rehal dan buku Iqra'. Pastu letak hook beberapa pieces buat sangkut storage, takderlah bersepah kat atas lantai tu. Barulah kemas.

Yang ni pun sangkut kat dinding, kemas dan teratur. Tapi takleh la sangkut tinggi sangat, nanti kang tak sampai pulak Aisyah ngan adik-adik dia nak amik toy.... maka jadilah toy tu sebagai hiasan.... :p

Haa.... barulah kemas sikit bilik anak-anak.... ni baru separuh dari koleksi toy diorang... lagi separuh simpan dalam box. Tapi tak sempat lagi nak kemas semuanya.... sambung esok pulak....

Anis 'Terkunci' Dalam Kereta

Petang ahad baru ni, kami keluar beraya ke rumah kawan kat Saujana Utama. Time nak balik, seperti biasa, hubby masukkan anak-anak ke dalam kereta, start enjin, pastu pasang air-cond untuk sejukkan kereta. Entah macam mana hari tu Amal boleh tinggalkan Anis sorang-sorang kat dalam kereta. Tengok-tengok, Anis dah pun kuncikan pintu! Masya Allah! Anak aku! Dah la dia tak pandai nak bukak balik kunci tu. Macam mana ni.....

Kebiasaannya, Amal ataupun Aisyah yang akan kuncikan pintu tiap kali hubby tinggalkan kami 5 beranak kat dalam kereta either untuk ke toilet, ke surau atau ke kedai, on safety precaution. Tu memang dah jadi rutin kami. Dan kebiasaannya, Amal dan Aisyah tak tinggalkan Anis sorang-sorang cam tu. Tetiba jer hari tu diorang tinggalkan Anis sorang-sorang....

Macam-macam kami cuba buat malam tu... kami cuba suruh dia turunkan tingkap depan, tapi disebabkan dia masih kecil, dia tak faham sangat instruction yang kami beri.... dalam suasana panik tu, kekadang rasa lucu pun ada bila tengok gelagat dia.... bila kami ketuk tingkap minta dia turunkan tingkap depan (auto), dia pun ketuk jugak, dia sangkakan kami ajak dia bermain.... bila kami suruh dia tekan/pijak butang untuk turunkan tingkap, dia tak pijak pulak.... kebiasaanya, dia suka main butang tu... dan tiap kali dia ke tempat duduk depan, dia mesti akan terpijak butang tu.... tapi malam tu, sekali pun dia tak terpijak.... bila kami suluh torchlight untuk guide dia supaya dia tekan butang tu, dia pun amik torchlight jugak....

Macam-macam lagi yang kami cuba.... masa hubby bagi instruction kat Anis, saya cuba turunkan tingkap dari luar... malangnya tak berjaya.... sakit tangan ada la.... aduhai anak mama.... nak buat camner lagi ni.....

Sedang kami kerisauan kat luar, dia seronok bermain kat dalam... macam-macam gaya dan aksi yang dia buat.... kejap-kejap, dia ke depan, kejap-kejap dia ke belakang balik... pastu dia baring kat atas seat belakang... risau kami, kot-kot la dia tidur... tapi Alhamdulillah la last sekali, dalam setengah jam kemudian, masa dia tengah main, dia terpijak butang tu... walaupun tingkap hanya terbuka sedikit, tapi kami berjaya tekan butang tu menggunakan kayu, boleh la bukak pintu lepas tu...

Gabra kami malam tu.... risau sangat-sangat... syukur la takder apa-apa yang berbahaya.... kesian pulak kat kawan kami malam tu... dalam kesibukan menyediakan juadah untuk ahli mesyuarat, terpaksa membantu kami dalam usaha 'rescue' Anis.... terima kasih banyak-banyak la pada depa suami isteri....

lepas kejadian tu, kami train Anis bukak tingkap tiap kali kami minta, as a precaution.... tapi, mudah-mudahan tak jadi camni lagi dah lepas-lepas ni.... hopefully....
