that’s dadam singing a loud birthday song to his baba and blowing out the candles prematurely on his behalf. and the little kepo naniq next to him just had to follow suit, blowing out the already-blown candles. there’s something about cakes and candles that make children of all ages terribly excited, isn’t there?

till now, i’m still amazed at how my mum could pop my brother out exactly on their first wedding anniversary, right on the dot, perfect timing. i’m sure she didn’t consciously hold him in, or talked him into waiting it out. i believe it’s just a darn good case of coincidence at work.

maybe i should ‘engineer’ our next offspring to come out on our anniversary too. it’s also the Husband’s birthday, so it’d be kinda fair, since aniq’s a decemberian like me.

let’s see… august 30. *counts backwards* oops, shoulda done it last november. we’re five months too late!

oh wait… *counts forward* that’s another seven months down the road. aniq would turn two while i would turn thirty the following month. which means, aniq would be four months short of turning three years (and i, a wrinkly, saggy, energy-sapped thirty-one-year-old coot) if our plan works out beautifully!

*nervous giggle*

erm, i think all this math is making me dizzy.

i’d better go layan aniq. he’s hurling wood blocks all over the room and i think he’s targetting at me. (meanwhile, the Husband’s in the kitchen making fish & chips with some weird stuff in the batter. ouhh!)

    did i submit a comment earlier? i thot i did.

    anyway.

    your math story is way too complicated for me to take ah. pening kepala baca.

    for me, plans for #2 will insya Allah begin next year when i join the workforce. then can claim my 3 months maternity leave mah.

    this doesnt sound too noble but, if the good government (who are paid A LOT of money to think up policies like this) want to pay me money and reward me for going through my pregnancy, then, who am i to reject kan?

    hi zuhaila! you must’ve seen izad and aniq WITHOUT me, hehe. i was on a date with someone else (ooops, shhh). :D
    you had a chalet there eh? we were there for a cousin’s chalet too!

    alah is, pay day or not, everything for them would STILL have to come out from our pockets!
    but actually, december is quite a good time to hv a birthday coz of bonu$! :)

    nani, oven-baked bunnies don’t sound very exciting NOR appetising….

    eh nad, u must take it that the 3mths they “pay” you isnt exactly a reward tau, taking care of the baby is equivalent to us WORKING!
    but i made up my mind to take 3mths ML + 3mths UPL the next round. how’s that for math? ;)
    (and if i were to calculate some more, i’d need to save save save for that additional 3mths. yikes!)
