Entry: THINGS HAPPENDED THIS YEAR'S EID Saturday, November 12, 2005



It's been 3 weeks since Eid, i have been busy with my girls' final year exams and baking cookies for Eid celebration. Two really good things happened during this year's fasting month...something a mother would be proud of...both my girls, 9 & 11, completed a full month of fasting and they performed fajar prayers together with me. Let me smile first.. :) ...but i just hope they will stop fighting about tinny winny things a lot lesser!
Went to my mom's place in M'sia on the first day of Raya. Even though, we got stuck in a jam near Seremban for an hour, it was alright. My son, Raziq, 4, keep asking me "where is Nani's house" and "i got stomach ache mommmmy.." and "off the air-con, mommy..too cold..." again and again but i kept him occupied by singing and diverting his attention to other things..i also sat at the back sit with him. Haseena who has been complaining about not getting the air-con, sat in the front sit...didn't hear her complaints anymore. Phewz!!
As always we went to 2 of my aunts place in Kelana Jaya and my cousin's house in Damansara on the 2nd day of Eid. In the evening, we went to my sister's place. While my hubby was fixing wireless internet for my nieces, my sis put on a movie by Shahruk Khan and Preti Zinta titled 'Veer-Zaara'.





The movie was sad but had a good ending and since i did not see the movie from the beginning, we bought the DVD in S'pore just a week ago. Later, during the night, we went to my sister's in laws place. This is the picture taken there



and the other at my cousin, Fari Appa's place



My kids enjoyed collecting 'duit Raya' and i enjoyed the variety taste of 'biskut Raya'. Mom gave me many kinds of different cookies to bring back home. But this year..my brother did not come back from Australia to celebrate with us..never mindla..next Eid he will be with us as this year is his last year of studies!!
