Daddy's 'Big' Boy

Since daddy has to go for his official travel, then his son was in charge to replace him accompanying his mom on our neighbour's wedding party invitation. Hamzah? Yup! Wasn't he too small? Yes! But he did it very well. 
We just stood in the line of the couples who had to welcome the guests. Not more than fifteen minutes, the lil boy started to show his mom that it's not his job actually.  Kids will be kids.  Besides, he might had been disturbed by aroma of tekwan.  Two bowls of tekwan could be taken as a proof.  Btw, it was lunch time, guys! The best part was two cups of ice cream which he enjoyed with all his heart after the tekwan so mommy could welcome the guests without any obstacles.  As long as the boy focused on the cups, then everything was under control.
Two cups of ice cream seemed enough for a while.  He turned to enjoy the party by arranging some empty chairs beneath the tent, jumping on the grass, counting the motorcycles parked near the spot, talking to balloons with the characters of marsha, and putting some after-used ice cream cups and tekwan bowls in a green big basket. He did let the sweat wetting his batik shirt.  What a busy Sunday!
It was about four hours we were there and it was amazing.  Four hours in a party together with a three-year old boy was really really something.  When his eyes sent a message of tiring, it was a sign to go on the stage, to congratulate the happy bride and groom, and their parents as well.  Time to go home now.  Thank you for your company, Hamzah. We had so much fun, right?

Sampai Jumpa, Angga

Sabtu pagi, 24 Mei 2020, pukul 07.22 ia masih melakukan panggilan video ke ponselku, namun tak terangkat. Kami bertemu dalam panggilan video selanjutnya melalui ponsel ibuku sekitar pukul 09.00 di rumah Jatra, rumah yang melengkapi puzzle masa kecilnya, rumah tempat ia pulang tiga tahun lalu. Ada yang berbeda pada wajahnya di lebaran pertama itu. Lebih tirus dan pasi. Kulihat kilauan buliran keringat di keningnya. Rambutnya basah. Jelas ia sedang tidak begitu sehat. Pun begitu, setiap kata, senyum, dan deraian tawanya tetap menyegarkan. Kami saling memohon maaf. Ia berbicara sambil merangkul maminya.  "Uni, maafkan Angga lahir batin ya, Ni. Insyaallah kita nanti ketemu di Jambi,"ucapnya sembari melambaikan tangan gempalnya.  "Iya. Uni tunggu, ya." "Insyaallah, Ni,"pungkasnya sebelum ia menepi dan membiarkan maminya berbicara. Sapa, maaf, dan tawa mengalir ke satu-persatu pasukan Pakis 74.  "Uni, bisakan kami nginap di ru...

Alhamdulillah sudah ditamatkannya Iqra 1 semalam di bilangan usianya yg baru 4 tahun 3 bulan 11 hari.  Sudah dengan lancar dibacanya seluruh deretan huruf Hijaiyah dengan susunan runut, acak, maupun dr belakang. Bukan hal yg istimewa utk Musa sang Qori dari Bangka Belitung mungkin, tetapi ini menjadi berkah luar biasa untuk kami. Semoga Allah selalu memudahkanmu untuk menyerap ilmu-ilmu Islam berdasarkan Quran dan teladan Rasulullah ya, Nak. Semoga ilmu-ilmu itu nanti senantiasa menjadi suluh yg menerangi setiap langkahmu dlm menjalani kehidupan ke depan dengan atau tanpa ayah bunda. Semoga juga ilmu itu tak hanya menjadikanmu kaya sendiri, tetapi membuat orang-orang disekelilingmu pun merasakan manfaatnya karena ilmu yg bermanfaat itu adalah ilmu yg bisa diberikan dan bermanfaat bagi orang lain di luar dirimu. Allah Maha Mendengar. Dengan doa dan pinta Bunda, Allah pasti akan mengabulkannya. Amin. 😍

I Love Presents

Dear aunties, still remember these presents? Bunda brought them for me when she came home a month ago.  I was so excited to see those colorful box in her hands.  And I could not stop smiling while touching them.   From Auntie Elva. Well, Aunties...thank you for the beautiful presents on my first birthday last month . Actually bunda had planned a small family gathering to celebrate my birthday, but she could not make it.  We mourned for my uncle who died suddenly early Saturday morning, the day before my day.  Bunda must have told you this. Did she tell you as well that Uncle Tomy was such a nice big guy who loved children very much?  I think I can still feel him. He left me the warmness of his hug when he held me tight and swung me gently in his arms five months ago. May his soul rest in peace and God grant strength to the members of the berieved family.  from Auntie Mar Anyway, here we go....with some pictures here you can see how happy...
