A year older with Hamzah :)

Ummi's homemade red velvet cake for my birthday :) Ummi so happy masa suapkan Hamzah this cake and you tell me "dap,dap..." (sedap!) You've always liked the cakes and pastries Ummi bake for you

Ummi and Hamzah celebrating Ummi's birthday

Salam sayang buat anak ummi,Hamzah :)

At the time ummi write this post,I'm looking at you riding your scooter so confidently.Smiling away all cheeky :) We've had a long day and ummi feel tired but i'll still write a bit so we can keep this story part of our memory keepsake.

Alhamdulillah,as of yesterday 18 september 2011 Ummi turned 1 year older. I am one year older as ummi to Hamzah(the second year celebrating my birthday as a ummi),with hope Allah SWT will continue to bless Ummi with everlasting strength, growing wisdom and amplified maturity to hold this responsibility towards you my son (ameen).

We've had a great time on ummi's birthday kan Hamzah? :) Ummi was even more happy tengok Hamzah all excited to spend the times with Ummi on my birthday.Lets hope we'll share lots more of our birthdays together in many more years to come insyaAllah.Hugs and kisses to my sweet little boy,imam muda in the making...Ustaz Hamzah!Ummi love you always,my son :)

Hamzah's Current Milestone

salam sayang buat anak ummi,Hamzah :)

It's been a while since last ummi update tentang Hamzah. Musim raya ni our life's still busy as always kan sayang? Never a day goes by in the past 1 year 4 months 2 weeks 3 days ummi lahirkan Hamzah and ummi will want to miss chances in waking up to see your smiling face,my son. Hamzah sentiasa eager nak bangun start your day with new things to learn about what life is about.Alhamdulillah,ummi bersyukur sentiasa Hamzah going through phases of growing up well on your way.Ummi doakan mohon Allah SWT lindung Hamzah sentiasa while you're growing up. There is so much for you to look forward to in life,ummi hope you'll be well ready as time comes.

There will be days we face with gloomy feelings,the downs about our life, tapi rest assured other days Allah will replace us with sunny smiles and happy times ahead. We will make the best of what life can offer us always ok sayang?What's important for Hamzah is to be a good person, a soleh son and well educated spiritually and on knowledge throughout your life. One of the usual conversations Ummi will have with bestfriends Ummi about Hamzah is like how most typical mothers would say.. friends will ask..."How is your son like?" and Ummi will say "He's a happy bubbly baby,a good son insyaAllah.Ummi just can't wait to see him growing up well and smart,go to school,finish degree and Masters,find a wife and get married!" ;) Hehe that's just how Ummi is,i love to vision far ahead about you Hamzah.InsyaAllah,semoga dgn niat doa and usaha Ummi to be a responsibled mother for my son,Allah SWT will guide and help ummi all the way through. Eventhough I've heard the saying in Islam, "anak boleh di ibaratkan sebahagian daripada perhiasan hidup kita" but nevertheless,anak juga tetap anugerah and amanah dari Allah untuk Ummi therefore before you reach your adulthood independence,Ummi will assist you grow up along the way.Once you are a grown up son,insyaAllah Ummi will learn to let you go bit by bit.Or else Hamzah will end up jadi "anak ummi/mak" forever and personally,Ummi wouldn't be proud of myself and for Hamzah if you turn up to be like that ;)

Updates on Hamzah yang Ummi observe lately,
  • Mulut Hamzah makin riuh! You're trying hard to communicate with people. Still susah nak pick up most of the words you used tapi insyaAllah you'll improve more as you grow
  • Concentration on your skills to play with your toys is getting better so Ummi rasa you're improving on your critical thinking ability. You're able to stack up your toy stacks accordingly, put specific shape blocks according to its own respective slots of your toy box,etc
  • Gigi geraham makin banyak tumbuh,love your pearly white smiles always. Selera makan makin variety,sesekali Ummi let Hamzah rasa sikit2 makanan pedas but very-very mild pedas more like sambal2 cili tomato hujung2 sudu je gaul with rice,mee with kuah kari.You seem to like to eat eventhough berjelir jugak lidah.You like pancakes too and full fat chocolate milk
  • Mula tunjuk perasaan merajuk marah nak merayu if nakkan sesuatu.Aiseh ini sometimes Ummi give in sometimes tak and Ummi must show I can be strict to you. At times if Ummi saje lambat bagi,Hamzah mesti nangis marah sampai terbaring-baring atas carpet tapi tak lama you'll calm down when Ummi distract you with something else. All part of toddlerhood for you sayang (wait until you reach teenager period, fuh time tu sure lagi mencabar Ummi nak maintain my role to didik Hamzah).Hopefully,you'll learn to outgrow this phase haha
  • Suka main remote control car,walaupun skill tak mahir lagi tapi either Hamzah nak main sendiri using the controller or you want Ummi to do it for you
There's always stories to tell of you Hamzah and insyaAllah i'll try to find other time to update.I've got to get back to final year project work Ummi now while you are playing with your car. Ummi sayang Hamzah always,my son. Eventhough I am a new ummi with little experience tapi insyaAllah, i will never give up my role and responsibility with Allah's guidance and will on you and my only hope Hamzah,is for you to be a soleh son :)

Hamzah and Hari Raya Aidilfitri 2011 :)

Hamzah and Ummi jalan2 beraya

Hamzah ready nak gi beraya :)

Salam sayang buat anak ummi,Hamzah budak2 baik & anak yang soleh insyaAllah :)

We've had a great raya so far kan sayang?Ummi am very glad I managed to make it a special raya preparation for our celebration. Ummi was happy dpt masak rendang ayam and nasi tomato with lauk2 dhall veg,kurma daging and ayam masak merah Hamzah seemed to like to eat ALOT! :) Ketupat pulut daun palas Ummi masak right from scratch pun turned out well,pretty good for a first timer like ummi :) Kalau Ummi kecik2 dulu just tolong Aunty Murni anyam sama ketupat daun palas but now I can do it all by myself. Ummi niatkan bila dah jadi seorang Ummi eloklah belajar lebih untuk memasak so I can take care my children's healthy food intake well insyaAllah.Ummi looking forward to improvise more and more my cooking skills so ummi can prepare Hamzah home cooked meals,dengan harapan berkat air tangan Ummi so Hamzah will receive pemakanan baik for your healthy growth. As always a natural feeling,mothers will want the best for their child for as much as a mother can offer. In return,Ummi harap Hamzah will learn to be a good soleh son as well :)

The eve of Raya Aidilfitri 2011 Hamzah was your usual self. Hamzah suka main2,tapi what Ummi observe Hamzah mula pick up to understand especially on the eve of Raya is when fixed at watching Indahnya Iman until azan waktu masuk Hamzah mesti either amek sejadah suruh bentangkan lalu Hamzah sujud or Hamzah will take Ummi's Quran and duduk belek2 Quran pages.Alhamdulillah,sejuk hati Ummi bila witness Hamzah's good observation. Ilmu agama tetap satu aspek penting Ummi ingin terapkn dalam diri and hati Hamzah besides good knowledge in life to prepare Hamzah become a good muslim man one day. Semoga Allah SWT sentiasa permudahkan niat harapan aim Ummi ini untuk besarkan Hamzah.Ameen.

Some photos taken of Hamzah during raya can be seen in this post.So Hamzah sayang,you will know how you look like during raya at the age of 1 year 4 months old :)

Ummi love you always,my son.May Allah SWT grant us the strength in ourselves always to pursue a life that's full of blessings and love dunia dan akhirat,ameen
