I am a true blogspot amateur!

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim..

It has been weeks since i wrote the last one.. and the challenge faced is.. I DONT KNOW HOW TO GET TO WRITE NEW POST!! Ish..ish..ish.. geram..geram..geram.. (gaya2 Ipin ajuk Upin cakap hehe). In the page, it shows the new post tad (which now i believe for readers only, kot) and i can edit my side layout there but where is the 'door' to get started writing?? no stress.. no stress... then, intelligently, i thought of studying the tutorial again and went to the blogspot home and guess what... TADAAA... here i am writing... ok ok now i know :)

Have a lot to tell but i dont think i want to back-date the entries... let it flows naturally...

Among entries which have missed the boat ( caused by my so called amateurity of blogging! bengong punye nadrah) are:

1) my very birthday - which i celebrated about 5 times hehe nasib baik age number doesnt rise each celebration

2) Family trip to Penang.. after so long

3) my bro and sis convocation - congratulations to both of you and thank you for everything

4) Aisyah's conjunctivitis... again

5) the very 1st Ramadhan Al-Mubarak - how this month has been longly waited by my poor soul

Now the real entry begins... welcoming AMIR FARUQ bin Khairul Anuar :)

Alhamdulillah, my sahabatii had delivered a beautiful baby boy. Putih melepak. Envy the name, another strong name for her baby boy. Teringat dulu memang kitorang nak namakan anak dengan nama-nama yg strong especially for boy. We ingat, of course these names will be rare especially for Malays, klasik names la katakan. Tapi tak sangka, rupa2 nya these names are becoming popular and taken away from my list. Is that a sign that the parents of our generation are more Islamic? or pursuing islamicity and baitul muslim? Wallahua'lam, mudah2an.

We always adore the Prophet's companions such as Abu Bakar, Umar Al-Khattab (taken, anak abg Muslim rasanya) aka Umar Faruq (also taken), Uthman Affan, 'Ali, Hamzah (taken), Talhah, Zaid Harithah and Amar. Plus, a few more names from zaman tabiin and Islam conquerors. Tapi orang tua2 tak keen of these names, 'berat' sangat untuk baby. Takut baby tak boleh 'bawa'. Dont ask me, i dont really understand myself. When i told my mom the choice of name that i would want to put for my son (dulu ingat Aisyah tuh boy), my mom terus reject heheh nasib baik keluar girl, belum pape lagi Aisyah has saved some dispute between her mummy and her mummy's mama hehehe.

Ok, so back to Sarah's story, banyak betul divertnya, Sarah has been complaining 'sakit2' here and there. Rasanya she suffered that almost 1 month before the delivery. This maybe due to the big and strong baby. Faruq was 3kg plus masa delivery and yet Sarah did normal birth without epidural! Tabik spring to you my friend! You survived it without Anuar at your side. Mmg sedih tapi masa sakit tuh mesti tak sempat nak sedih2 kot kan ;)

As much as this strong-willed baby Faruq wants to come out from her mother dark womb, he still well-planned his way out. Refusing 31st August as Merdeka baby, he waited the next day to have the special entrance together with As-syahrur Ramadhan Al-Mubarak. I am sure your birthday will be more remembered as 1st Ramadhan. Still can hear how your Ummi broke the news that Amir Faruq is safely delivered on 1st Ramadhan, alhamdulillah...

Aunty nad and other aunties cant wait to have a look at you. But give your mom some energy first. Sorry sarah, sebab tak gi ziarah lagi coz let everything settled first for you and Faruq and the rest of the family member... mesti rumah tuh menjadi lebih full-house dari biasa kan ;)

Teringat masa Sarah nak melahirkan Hamza. Kitorang sempat chat on the phone. Sarah called for some tips sambil menahan sakit nak deliver but still boleh gelak2. To make things worse, i cant help much of giving the tips pun becoz i dont have the experience of normal birth, sabar jer la. Masa tuh rasa lama jugak Sarah in labour, sehari suntuk. But with Faruq, alhamdulillah, lebih sekejap.. according to Sarah, masuk labour at 9am and deliver at 1pm. But the pain is unbearable, of course.

Orang tua2 kata, beranak anak lelaki ni lagi sakit daripada anak perempuan. Brp banyak ntah urat putus compared to deliver baby girl. Sebab apa tau, sebab baby boy nih mmg cepat je nk keluar dari perut, nampak pintu terus meluru gagah nak keluar. Baby girl ni dia takes time sikit sebab nak berkemas2 dulu, mekap2 sikit, jalan pun sopan santun nak keluar tu. Kelakar kan! Ini my grandma yang cakap.

OK la dah melalut pulak. Amir Faruq, tunggukan kedatangan kami!

Anyway, to all mothers, here is a song to remind us of our mothers...

Who should I give my love to?

My respect and my honor to

Who should I pay good mind to?

After AllahAnd Rasulullah

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 clothes 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..Your mother (My mother)

Who should I take good care of?

Giving all my love

Who should I think most of?

After AllahAnd Rasulullah

Comes your motherWho next?

Your motherWho 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 picked you up? clean your cut?

No one but your mother..My mother

Who should I stay rigt close to?

Listen most to...never say no to

After AllahAnd Rasulullah

Comes your motherWho next?

Your motherWho 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 cry..

Who wiped your tears?

Knows your fears?

Who really cares?

My Mother

Say Alhamdulillah, Thank you Allah

Thank you Allah For my mother.
