Syukur Alhamdulillah


All praises to Allah s.w.t for having given us an enriching year with our only son.
A year of hope.
A year of pride.
I don't dare ask for more.
Only hope that Allah grant us another year of togetherness.

I am so honored to be his mother. All the 4 hours of enduring excruciating labour pains were worth it.
The process, the result the upbringing...all of it.
Simply mellifluous.
I'll be even more honored to be a mother all over again, if Allah grants my wish.

I'm ready, totally.

Insyaallah.

Izz Afiq has grown up.
I can't say he takes after me, neither can I say he takes after his father.
He has created his own personality which is uniquely his.
I guess that's what makes a child special.

Any celebration?
Except for a cake which I'll be getting later after work, nothing spectacular really.
But yet nothing ordinary either.
At dawn today, stirred both my babies up from their slumberland.
Performed our subuh prayers together, 3 of us and thanked Allah for everything He has bestowed upon us.

And who says you can't have the cake and eat it too?

Happy 7th birthday Son. Friday, March 09, 2007
