Happy Birthday To You……

Mak turned 81 years old yesterday. I had brought her from Alor Setar last weekend to my younger brother’s house in Shah Alam.

Yesterday, my brother had an Eidul Fitr open house. Mak didn’t know that her children , grandchildren and great grandchildren had converged there not just for makan-makan but also to throw her a surprise birthday bash….



Except for my eldest sister in Alor Setar and elder brother who is sailing, all her children were there. Sadly not all her grandchildren were with her last night...some were working, some were attending to more urgent matters and one was busy finding his purpose in life. He has been noticeably absent from a few family events for quite a while now. If only that one grandchild realises he is the apple of his grandma's eyes.....


Mak may be old, her movements are slower and hard on hearing now, but her "leter" masih laser sharp wo! But, that's Mak and we love her so very much.

Welcome to the blogging world.. at least you may stand a chance or risk ISA detention and gain the fame that comes along with it! (joke!)

Bukan susah sangat nak menghargai yang tersayang...cukuplah dengan kehadiran kita di sisi mereka. So...ingat2 la semua, sementara yang tersayang masih ada, luangkan sedikit masa bersama mereka.Itu dah memadai untuk menggembirakan hati mereka.
