My first Hari Raya

Hari Raya 2006 is very special to my parents. It is their first time celebrating Hari Raya with their adorable son who is ME! kehrkehkrehrhe Yes! I celebrate Hari Raya for the first time. Mummy and daddy really make a big fuss out of it. When I go visiting people gave me envelope. Don't know what for... maybe for me to make origami. In many months time when I can talk I will ask mummy and daddy why they give envelope but not toys.

Hmmmm about mummy and daddy make a big fuss about this year's Hari Raya because they want to make it special for me. Eventhough I don't know anything or may not be able to remember but at least I can look at the photos. But you know what? Mummy and daddy too busy attending to my crankiness in most evenings, they forgot to take photos. Aiyahhh!!!!!!! They even forgot to take photos of me wearing baju kurung. Yes.. I have my first baju kurung. It is green in colour. My favourite colour. The colour is similar to the play gym Aunty Noorlina bought for me.

Before Hari Raya Mummy and especially daddy busy decorating my room. Very nice! Thanks daddy. You can see some photos of my room from mummy's photo album. Daddy even go Geylang one more time alone to look for a baju kurung for me. Wah total daddy go Geylang 3 times! He wants the exact colour like his baju kurung. But too bad there ain't any. There 2 options but too expensive. Cost about $50 per baby suit. When mummy and daddy go Geylang for the 2nd time, they settled for baju kurung which has the similar colour to daddy's. But still daddy prefers it to be the exact colour. On the eve of Hari Raya, Mummy and I went for a quick one hour shopping at Causeway Point. Mummy really shop very fast. Daddy was at work. Mummy manage to get whatever I need. She even get a bib and hat which have the same colour as daddy's baju kurung. Mummy cut a bit of daddy's baju kurung cloth as sample hehehehe. Daddy don't mind mummy cut his expensive baju kurung for the love of his son hehehehehe. Later after we came back mummy did a few housework. Later about midnight while daddy and I were sleeping mummy prepare the ingredients for her to cook rendang.

On Hari Raya day, I woke up mummy at about 5 am. Mummy too tired and asked daddy to take care of me. Finally mummy woke up at 6am and started cooking rendang and ayam masak merah. Too bad I woke up. Daddy got to stop do housework and carry me while mummy prepare more ingredients. When everything in the wok, mummy feed me and carry me while daddy continued to do more housework. Finally mummy finish cooking at 12pm. This rendang must be special. Mummy got to cook from 6am to 12pm just to get the correct colour for the rendang. I must taste it when I grow up. I pity my parents. They always got to carry me until they forgot to put the Hari Raya cookies on the table. They only did it on the second day.

On the first day after mummy finish cooking and feeding me, we get ready to go to Uncle Kip house. This year we got to go Uncle Kip house because this Sunday he is going to USA to work. I met my cousin and they lost a lot of weight because of fasting month. By the way daddy also lost some weight. When he carry me I cannot feel his belly anymore hehehe Shhhh.. don't tell him or else daddy will perasan for many weeks. :P After that we went to grandma house and went to another 2 grandma house. I really have a lot of grandparents from daddy's side.

At night at about 11.40pm. I and mummy home alone. Daddy went out for awhile. When we came back at 10pm, mummy can smell kemeyan at the door. I sawan and I cried so loud. Mummy panicked and desperate. Mummy read ayat Kursi and I cried even louder. Finally out of desperation mummy called grandpa. Grandpa said Allahuakbar and mummy at the same time said "Ya Allah please help my son" with tears rolling on her cheeks. I immediately kept quiet and wants mummy for comfort. Soon my grandparents came and grandpa did some prayers for me. Daddy came back and everybody go back to sleep.

On the second day of Hari Raya, mummy not in the mood to go out. She is worried I have sawan again. Furthermore daddy works night shift for 2 days. Finally mummy just go out to visit 2 houses at Jurong. When we came back mummy did lots of prayers to protect me.

Today mummy prefer to stay at home. She is still worried about me. We will continue visiting tomorrow.
