My neighbours ....

Salaam , it's a brand new week and already into the second week of bulan Rejab . My father has been fasting since 1st Rejab and I am praying hard that he will have the strength to fast until 10 Rejab . His health has not been that good lately as he will get tired easily so fasting this year will be quite a challenge for him .

I have two wonderful neighbours , Ani and Ima whom I called my network of support system ! The three of us shares everything (not our husband of course !!!) - we complement each other and I am really thankful for being blessed with wonderful neighbours from both side of my house and thank God for their husbands and children too who are just as caring and friendly to my family . The three of us are quite close like sisters , and as the eldest among us , I will normally take charge of things .... hehehee , well I am used to taking charge and being bossy .... LOL

Ani , Ima and myself loved to hang out in our front garden in the early evening when our children will play outside . We will pull out our comfy chairs and just talked about anything under the sun but mostly in would revolved around food recipes , our children , clothes , tv programmes , gardening , cartoons , etc . In between Ani and Ima they each have two children , Iklil , Aqil , Delaila , Danieya and the wonderful part is both of them are expecting baby boys this year . Ani will be giving birth in August and Ima will give birth to her first son in October !!! I am so , so happy for both of them and especially Ima and her hubby , Roger who are thrilled to bits when they found out she's expecting a baby boy !

My darling princess , Umaira enjoys a love hate attitude with her young neighbours , Kakak Iklil , Adik Aqil , Lala and Nieya - they play together and be on their best behaviour one minute and the next minute will start fighting for toys ... well that's kids for you ... !!!

I am forever thankful for Ani and Ima for keeping an eye on my dad at home when we were outstation or just out for the day . Thanks Ani , Zul , Ima and Roger too for being kind and caring towards Tok Bak , we really appreciated it . It's hard to find neighbours like them nowadays when people are too self centred and don't really mix and know their neighbours .

Have a wonderful week ahead . Wassalam
