Last weekend started with a bang and ended with a bigger bang ... went back home to my parents-in-law's place in Muar . Umaira had a great time playing with the next door neighbour , Aiman who is 5 years old , and enjoyed the time spent following her nenek around the huge house and compound . The best part of the day for Umaira was when Nenek went to the chicken coop to feed the chicken , Umaira would simply sit on her little stool and watch the chicken eat and fight for food ... hilarious ! At one stage , I overheard Umaira's conversation with her Nenek ;
"Nenek buat apa tu ?"
"Nenek marah ayam tu ...nak makan bergaduh pulak !"
"Kenapa Nenek marah ayam tu ? Nanti dia nangis .... "
"Ayam tu memang patut kena marah sebab dia gaduh nak makan .... bertuah betul bocah wadok ni ...." Hahahahaa .....
I had a great time bonding with my mother-in-law last weekend , we talked about many things all night long and I feel like I am more closer to her nowadays compared to before ... everytime I come home , I will make sure I spend some quality time talking and listening to her which is a good therapy for her . I truly understand her feelings and frustation of having to take care of her husband (my father-in-law) who became sick after a freak accident 4 years ago . I wished and pray very hard for Allah SAW to grant her good health and strength to carry on in life and face any obstacles with good faith .
Oh well , let's talk about a more cheery subject on durians - the king of fruits ! It is the durian season everywhere and you can see and smell durians in almost every household !!! Who doesn't love eating durians ??? My daughter , Umaira hates the smell and won't even take a bite .... the smell puts her off .... hahahaaa . My mother-in-law's durians are simply delicious , and I mean DELICIOUS ... it's perfect , dark yellow flesh and slightly bitter taste ... yummy !!!
My hubby will be going back to Muar tomorrow and I'll make sure he brings back more durian from his kampung .... hmmmmmm
