'eid mubarak!

assalamu'alaikum frens,

wishing 'eid mubarak to all - late though!

its already 12 Dzulhijjah :D ... alhamdulillah, we had a modest-but-nice 'Eidul Adha here ... having Uncle Ij around, a nice 'Eid-gift-package arrived one day before the big day *jazakumullah khairal jazaa' to the Sevenlords* plus a nice nasi lemak breakfast with 4 lovely guests on 'Eid morning (and managed to cook rendang 'apa dah jadi?' :D) >> 'Eidul Adha had its own sunshine on me! :)

Handzalah has been coughing (and his nose running badly) for the past few days ... mama would have said, "poor little fella" if she sees him now ... he had a hard time on bed, can't really sleep ... pusing sana sini, mata tak boleh buka tapi nak tidur pun dada tak habis-habis bekerja ... BUT he enjoyed the 'attention' given to him, asking everyone to play with him and pick him up whenever he needs a lift! wah wah ... tak sihat pun kemain aktif lagi anak ummi :) especially now he knows how to climb up the sofas and beds and how to safely get down to the floor again .. erm but 'safely' doesn't mean he could be left without 'adult supervision' - that's TOO DANGEROUS!

this little fella is indeed one of the most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me!
he's sick yet he plays, smiles and laughs whenever he can (though he cries a lot more than he does usually) ... he still 'dance' - moving his body from left to right and forward - whenever he listens to the rhythm of a song or dzikr ... he babbles around and only consume his favourite dish - which happens to be pasta ;) ... sometimes he's weak and tired, yet he's sooo positive whenever there's energy in his body ...

thinking of how wonderful a little baby could be - due to his innocence to life - expresses his feelings of happiness and frustration freely ... sigh a little less and appreciate every minute of his life exploring, learning and yearning for love, attention and every single thing that he perceives in a positive view and rarely the opposite ...

and i wonder how much we, in our 'living diaries', portrayed negativity and hypocrisy and not to forget ungratefulness for everything we have and need ... how much we sigh and hide ... and how much we pay great attention for things we've lost, things we couldn't get, people we couldn't love and vice versa and so many other little things ... YET FAILED to see, observe and appreciate the greatness of the ni'mah He gives in every single breath we breathe, every single word we utter, everyone we love and loved us, everything we consume, everything gained and everything everything everything ...

how i wonder!
