What a feeling... My firstborn is going to kindy. I just couldn't believe how time flies. Ihsan is excited when mentioning about kindy. He's going to get lots of friends. That's I'm sure.
Woke him up this morning and getting him ready to go to his kindy. He looks so handsome in his kindy's uniform which is white shirt, navy collar with blue tie and blue pants. The kindy starts at 8.30 am until 11.30 am. We send the two sisters to the nursery first and then off we go to the kindy.
My hubby dropped us at the kindy and after hugging Ihsan, he went to work. I bought some Milo and currypuffs for Ihsan, just in case he gets hungry before his breaks. We went to the kindy and saw that his friend Ilham was there also with his parents. Two of his friends from nursery are also going to the same kindy. His friends are Ilham and Farah. The kindy fills with lots of crying kids and anxious parents just like me.
Met with Ihsan's teacher ie. Puan Alimah. He assured me that all these kids which has no knowledge about English is going to speak English by end of the year. Spoken to Ilham's mom and she said that Ilham is a little bit clingy. Ihsan by the way is excited to see his friends there. The three of them sits together. Gave Ihsan his Milo and curry puff to eat. He gave one of his curry puffs to Ilham. They both ate their curry puffs the same way ie. only eating the puffs.
Ihsan is in KK class. That means for those kids which is first time in kindy. Puan Alimah starts the class by teaching the kids to say "Good Morning, Teacher". Seeing that Ilham, Ihsan and Farah sits together and know one another, she separated them. Ihsan got to sit next to a girl. There's more boys than girls in Ihsan's class. Then, Puan Alimah distributed the school acitivity books, pencil case and colour pencils to the class. She then ask the class, who knows how to sing "ABC'? Ihsan raised his hands and told the teacher that he knows it. "That's good" said Puan Alimah. Everybody in class sang the ABC song together. She then show the flash card with the word "a" and asked who knows the alphabet? She proceeded by showing the kids how to write the word "a" with her hands. All the kids were given a colouring sheet with pictures of flowers and were asked to colour it. Ihsan is the first person who finished his colouring and gave it to his teacher. I saw him colouring the flower by putting the red crayon all over it. After it was all colour up, he took whatever crayon and colour it again. Huh, what do you expect when a boy is doing the colouring, and he colours it his way. I saw that the other girls were pretty careful when colouring and they colour it very carefully so as not to go beyond the edges. So theirs turn out much nicer than the boys.
Ihsan is very much at school as he keeps going in and out of the class as and when he likes it. Puan Alimah reminded the class that if they want to go to the toilet, they may do so by asking her. Ihsan raised his hand to Puan Alimah telling her that he wants to go to the toilet. I showed him where the toilet is and told him to do his business and reminded him to wash his hands after that.
I left Ihsan at his class and spoke to Ilham's mom. She asked me whether I have registered Ihsan for the Standard One School. I said no and she said that if I brought along the birth certificate, we can go and register Ilham and Ihsan together. We have to act fast on this as the 2000 babies are a handful lot.
I saw that some of the parents brought their handicam and digitalcam for recording the kids at school. I envy them as I don't have one. Memories are forever. I got to get those things sooner or later as I want to make memories of my kids growing up.
The kids get to eat cornflakes and milk during their tea break. Ihsan finished his bowl first and I just couldn't believe my eyes because usually he doesn't take his cornflakes with milk at home. The kids got to leave early around 10.30 am for the first three days.
The teachers asked all the kids to line up for their turn to take the van. Then, they arranged the kids according to their destinations. Ihsan got to sit in front with Farah and Ilham. Ilham's mom said that please don't worry about Ihsan as she will make sure that the kids arrive safely at the nursery as she will be following the van. I said my thank you to her and told her that I will be leaving straight home after that. Seeing Ihsan and the kids in the van, makes me teary as seeing my Ihsan has turned out to be a very fine young man and very independent at school. I don't have to worry about my son anymore as he can get along with others very well. I'm so proud of Ihsan as his first day at kindy turns out fine. Good job, son! :) He also goes for his mengaji class today.

Merdeka Day
31st August 2004
My family and I spent our "Dedeka Day" (this is Madihah's way of saying Merdeka day) shopping for a vacuum cleaner. We went to Ikano Power Center at Mutiara Damansara. Oh my gosh! The place was jammed packed with people. We had to wait for almost half an hour to get a parking space.
We went to Harvey Norman and checked out the Vacuum Cleaner section. There's varieties of vacuum cleaners for us to choose. Haha... my hubby and I can't decide which one to choose. Initially, we planned to buy a wet and dry vacuum for our house. This is due to lots of dust in our house...hehehe Secondly, my two daughters are easily infected by cough and flu and this will lead to lots of phelgm. That's why we want to minimise this.
After much discussion with hubby, we decided to buy sort of a 3 in 1 wet and dry vacuum plus air purifier. This is a way bit expensive but hey... we still have to buy this later. So why don't we buy it now and not stuck up with a vaccum cleaner and air purifier which will cramp up our small house.
Since this is "Mega Sale Carnival", we managed to get a discount and a free gift of "Delonghi Toaster" worth RM100 plus. I'm happy with the free gift because I don't have a toaster at home but this toaster is "canggih" one. It has this "defrost" function. Just look at the price. If I was given a choice, I'm not wasting that much money to buy it. Now, let's go make my garlic bread. Hmmm.. yummy!!
While at Harvey Norman, I met my ex-colleague at Petronas which I have not met for the last 10 years. I saw Asfa and her son and went to talk to her. It was such a surprise and I'm happy that she still remember me. Asfa, you still look the same.
After paying for our purchase, we went straight home as my little girl Hannah was feeling restless and gave a loud wail. We have to go home as I didn't bring along her formula and we didn't want to be the center of attention.
I need to go back to Ikano Power Center again some other time as I have not explored yet the place. Only managed to go to Ikea once a few months back.

Appointment with Doctor
2nd September 2004
I had an appointment with my doctor at Ampang Puteri today. Went to see him for follow up which is due after my delivery. I was worried sick because I have this back pain for quite sometimes for almost a month. Didn't told my hubby about it. He was mad at me when I told him at the last minutes. I'm not sure whether he noticed that I'm not my usual self lately. Been thinking a lot about it.
We were at the doctor's office at 8.30 am. I told the doctor about my back pain. He then asked me to go for an x-ray. Managed to get number 001 at the Imaging Department. Waited quite some time for the people to call out for my number. Did my x-ray and waited outside. I thought this is okay. But hey, I was wrong. They called me again and asked me to do another x-ray. They said they have to get the x-ray done at another angle. I really hate to do it again. Why didn't they get their job right for the first time. I saw that their changing room now provides mirror. It's much easier for people like me who wear head scarf to put on our head scarf back.
Finally get my x-ray results, after waiting for almost 2 hours although I got this number 001. I expect to get a fast result because of the darn number. Went back to the doctor's clinic with the results. He said that there's nothing to worry as this is just a normal back pain. He prescribed me with some painkillers and told me to come again next week on Sept 9. I thank God for this good news!

My kids
Hari ni sebelum pergi kerja, Madihah nampak Hannah, the 4 months baby sister tengah tidur. Dia cakap dengan abah dia.. "Abah, gigi Hannah patah?" Then, abah told her "Tak patah lah.. Hannah baby lagi, dia mana ada gigi. Gigi Hannah belum tumbuh lagi." She said " Ooooo" seems like she understands that.
Masa nak mandikan Ihsan before he went to play school, dia tanya abah dia " Abah, Madihah cuti mandi ya?". Kelakar pun ada. Mandi mana ada cuti. That's how the kids think.
I think what Ihsan meant was kenapa Madihah tak mandi pagi and abah said "Madihah mandi tapi Madihah mandi kat sekolah. Pagi-pagi ni sejuk, tak elok untuk Madihah".
Sekarang ni, Madihah suka sangat menyanyi. Last night, on our way back to KL, masa lalu Bukit Putus, we had a sing along with her sebab takut dia muntah. Terpaksalah menyanyi lagu "Twinkle twinkle little star", " I Love you" "Burung Kakak Tua", "Buai Laju Laju" and etc.
I really like to hear dia nyanyi "Buai Laju-Laju". She learns this song from the nursery sebab I never teach her this song.
This is Madihah's version when she sings "Buai Laju Laju"
Buai laju-laju
Sampai cucur atap
Belum tumbuh gigi
Dah pandai baca kitab.. tab tab tab...
My hubby said that I should hafal all the kids song sebab bila sing along with her, kami semua tak tahu lirik so nyanyi jerlah apa yang ingat.
Hannah pulak sekarang ni suka sangat put her fingers into her mouth. Not just one finger but all of it insider her mouth. Siap bunyi-bunyi lagi when she licks her fingers. Tak tahu nak buat apa dah. When my hubby pegang tangan dia tak kasi hisap jari. Dia punya lah marah and give a loud wail as protest.

My first postings
Yipeee.... Finally I got my own blog. This is my first postings and I don't know what to write. Okay, today is a working day and mostly my colleagues are on leave as this is a school holiday and every body is taking this chance to bring their family for a holiday. I'm not taking any leave on August 30th as my hubby is working. So there's no point of taking any annual leave.
I'm looking forward for Sept 5 as that will be my 5th wedding anniversary. I don't have any plans yet on how to celebrate it as my 3 kids is still small and I don't have any helpers to help me. Will think of something later, later. he he he...
Yesterday on our way home in the car, my daughter Madihah was sneezing.... and she said "Ummi, Adia batuk achhhuuum". My hubby and I was smiling to each other when we heard that and I said "Bukan batuk, sayang tapi bersin". But my cutie pie Madihah insist that she is "batuk achuummm" instead of "bersin". There's no point of arguing with her as she always wants to win. There's so much to talk about her. But will post it later here.
Till now. Roger and out :)
