Week 20 | HERO (10-16 May)

Chech

Khalish, when I was your age, one of my favourite television series was The Incredible Hulk. The idea of a scientist whose temperament and appearance were affected by a failed experiment was simply amusing to a child. But then again, my seven-year-old self was easily amused with everything.

Years later, came The Avengers. I have entered my 30's at that time. Superheroes did not give me the same excitement any longer. Until I found out that one of the characters in the aforementioned movie was The Incredible Hulk. Exclamation marks. After all, I was reminded of my childhood character. I also remembered the real reason of my admiration towards Hulk. It was the way he overcame challenges in life. 

Unlike in 2012, I was not able to join daddy and you to watch Avengers: Age of Ultron this year. Knowing how I missed Hulk, you entertained me by re-enacting the scenes from the movie. Never mind the forgotten script. I preferred your version. The aisle of the toy shop was more interesting than the cinema, too. 

At the end of your performance, you gave me a look. Your eyes were fierce behind the mask. "I am truly sad, truly mad to go now, but I know we will see each other again."

Nish Halim

What makes Superman a hero is not that he has power, but that he has the wisdom and the maturity to use the power wisely. Seeing how you have endured your school years (so far) in this challenging land, I must say you are a Superman yourself. Keep it sincere and always reach out to help others okay?That's a super power that will win you in the world herein and hereafter.

As much as you look up to me - when you need me to spread the butter on your bread, when you need me to unzip your uniform, when you need me to mend your broken toys, when you need me to feed you - as if I am the only hero who could save you; as much of that I break down and cry. How can someone so imperfect as me, be the 'hero' of these three little person? 

The truth is, YOU are the actual hero because without you needing me, I won't be able to do what you ask me to do. Without you requesting me, I might not know the solutions to even half of the problem that you need my help with. 

To my heroes - Hope, Strength and Faith. Thank you for saving me.

Kenapa hero? Sebab tiap kalinya Abah tiada di rumah, kamu menawarkan diri untuk 'menjaga' mama tika malam datang, kita tidur sama-sama. Kan semangat pahlawan nampaknya itu?

One fine day,

"Daddy, I have one question. 

Do you know who is the best human (ever lived) on earth?"

Week 19 | PICNIC (3-9 May)

Nish Halim

On the last night your Opah was here, I baked her favourite marble cake, your favourite cheese nachos and we had a lil' picnic in the living room. Baba was the lighting guy following my orders like I was the Tuan Direktor Ahmad Nesfu as Opah fondly calls me when I get behind my cam.  We took hundreds of photos (because I was struggling shooting in the dark on manual mode) and you cracked a few jokes with Opah, as always, teasing her. Am not sure how well have I captured all the moments we have spent together for us to recall it someday, but know that I will have this on record forever: I am so blessed to be your mother and so so grateful that I am my mother's daughter. 

Love,

Mommy

Linda Latip

Our perfect sunday on the beach. Picnic yeay!

Chech

To you, a weekend in Rembau would not be a weekend in Rembau without being at the backyard. Running, rolling, and, if it rains, reading. Be it with your cousins or simply alone.

The backyard again one fine day last week. No cousin around, but you still enjoyed yourself. Atuk and Wan were entertained with your senseless three-level football. Daddy and I were happy to be under the shade with you during tea time. 

Now, I dream of a house with such a beautiful yard where you may play and picnic every day.

Milin Kassim

Someone is having a tea party with her picnic friends when she suddenly realizes,

"Oh no, I haven't done my homework!"

Izlynne

As much as a picnic that rhymes with (a) food;
You don't think that's the idea, of point or a two;
Your picnic involves animals - it is a must do;
That's when you feed them - I am sure you will do!

Maznie

And we break a cliche picnic rule by doing it on a balcony,facing the pool and a wide blue ocean,a balcony picnic !

Week 18 | BLUR (26 April-2 May)

Maznie

There was a time,when suddenly someone asked me,where do you see yourself/life should be in five years from now??? For a few seconds my thought are blur... --- "may be...when I wake up every morning and I can see my child lying and smiling next to me.May be.May be."And today after several years,I am proud to be a full-time mother of one ! Remember that every single words came out from your mouth it's dua'.

 Zubye Rusli

Sebab ada waktu-waktunya, segalanya kelihatan kabur. Jalan di hadapan tidak nampak jelas. Hendak melangkah pun terasa perit. Namun, itu bukan selamanya. Di setiap kesedihan ada yang indah menanti di hadapan. Setiap kehilangan ada yang lebih baik Tuhan gantikan. Sebab Tuhan itu Maha Baik. Tidak selamanya dibiarkan hari mendung dicurah hujan. Dikirimkan matahari untuk bersinar kembali. Memberi harapan baru, satu kekuatan, yang hidup ini perlu diteruskan.

That Look. That Smile. That Confident.
When you get to cruise.
Like a little bird, who finally gets its wings.
To fly.
Soaring high.

Nish Halim

Check mate, mommy!
Say what?!

Izlynne

As blur as how the future might be, I can still see all of you there. I pray to Allah, I will be there with you.

Chech

You may not know the truest definition of friendship yet, but there is no blurred line when it comes to who your best friends are. Always daddy and mommy.

Week 15 | SOMETHING YOU DO EVERYDAY (5 - 11 April)

Nish Halim

Check rambut. Then bother Mommy with questions like "do you think it looks great/cool/cun mommy?" Sure.  Conscious sangattttt dah. Pening kepala. But still, I love it that your self-grooming skill is getting better. No more masam hair  & armpit for that matter!

Izlin

Something you do everyday is to shed those tears and cry your heart out whenever I have to put you in your safety zone and do some chores.

Something you do everyday is to watch me at every single nook and cranny I go about the house and make sure you will not lose sight of me.

Something you do everyday is to always make sure I respond no matter how you call me.

Something you do everyday is to play on your own with confidence once that you are sure I am within your vicinity.

Something you do everyday is to show me that all these mean you love me and need me.

Something that you always do. Everyday.

Min Mohd

Khalego!

Linda Latip

Something I do everday....is falling. In love with you. Even deeper and  unmeasureable.  x

Zubye Rusli

Some days are simply meant for playing. To this boy it means everyday!

Maznie

Something you do everyday (without fail) ; drawing a picture of a trucks (tons of truck actually),playing games on my phone (until I have to warned you to stop) and playing with your favorite toy car collections,it's a must activity,everyday at anytime !

Milin Kassim

Every day is an amusing day.
Every night is a dazzling night.
And we wrap it all up with
a bedtime story.

Min Mohd

Chech

Sambil main Lego, berlakon. Sambil berlakon, gelak terbahak-bahak.

Milin Kassim

It's okay if we fall, my love.  Sometimes all we need to do is just laugh at our silliness - isn't laughter the best medicine? Laugh your head off. Loosen up. And then, get up and do better. In shaa Allah. We can do it!

Linda Latip

Yes dedek, Get well super sonic soon. We miss your silly joke and the contagious laugh. :)

Izlin

''Aaaaaaawwwwwwww"

That's what crossed my mind when my finger managed to snap this shot. I leave the rest for you to guffaw too.

Zubye

Pabila engkau ketawa. 

Ruang yang gelap menjadi terang. 

Hati yang suram bertukar senang. 

Hanya pabila... 

aku melihat engkau ketawa.

Maznie

Burst out with a great guffaw cos' we deserve a quality time together my love...
