A Meaningful Ramadhan

I haven't write anything about this year Ramadhan. It's special because unlike the previous years, this year we have Honey.

Tahun ni JD bertugas beli makanan since I had to pick up Honey before 5:30pm. So from the office, sharp at 5 or just a few minutes after I'd punch out & went to the nursery. JD would arrive at home ~6:30 & he'd take over taking care of Honey while I cooked the rice in the kitchen. Pastu, I'd feed Honey with solid food & JD went upstairs to have a bath. ~7, I'd try putting Honey to sleep. The 1st 2 weeks of Ramadhan, most of the days, Honey was sleeping while we had our iftar. Kalau Honey tak tido, we'd put her in a walker which I just bought on the 2nd week of Ramadhan.

Yup actually there was nothing special but it was a new experience for us. Yelah, lama dah berdua kot, now bertiga plak. To be honest, for me I felt more tired. Tapi penat2 pun kene gak melayan si budak kecil. Tu yang decide nak beli walker tu walaupun research says it's not safe for baby. Tapi kalau dibiarkan dia explore rumah on her 2 feet & 2 hands pun bahaya gak. At least boleh buat keje dapur dengan senang hati bila letak Honey dalam walker. I think the keyword is monitoring.


Ok back to the topic apa beza Ramadhan tahun ini. Ramadhan tahun ini juga terasa lebih lapang hati. Thanx to my gorgeous group of friends. Saling nasihat-menasihati & motivate each other to be a better Muslim & take full benefit of Ramadhan. Ini gambar masa khatam Quran hari tu...


Yang tengah tu, ustazah kami. Kecil je orangnya, tapi punya hati yang besar. Sanggup datang ke ofis kami setiap hari sepanjang Ramadhan ni untuk sama2 bertadarus al-Quran.

However, tak tau lah kenapa Ramadhan kali ini setelah masuk minggu ke-3, terasa lebih penat. There was a time, rasa tak larat & kalau ada alasan such as bermusafir, memang dah berbuka sedangkan duduk rumah aje jaga si kecil. Tapi penat2 pun kene gagahkan diri juga kerana si kecil sentiasa minta perhatian.

Dalam tak larat tu, sungguh tak disangka seperti tahun lepas, aku akan berpuasa penuh tahun ini, انشاءالله . Bila mood swing ingatkan P.M.S. Tapi sampai dan yang dinanti tak kunjung tiba. Rupa2nya...


الحمدلله a gift from Allah in a month full of barakah.
Today is 29th of Ramadhan 1433. انشاءالله will be the last day of Ramadhan. It's such a meaningful Ramadhan indeed.
