My Favourite Month of all... Ramadhan

Dear Friends & Family,
Selamat berpuasa & beribadah. May Allah accept our fasting, forgive our sins, and guide us all to the Straight Path. May Allah bless us all during Ramadan, and throughout the year, with His forgiveness, mercy, and peace, and bring us all closer to Him and to each other.

I'm always looking forward for Ramadhan. A month where my soul finds peace, sincerity and serenity..yes, the word is serene..calmness.

My Sya'ban this year was pretty trying, so i hope my Ramadhan will bring all the barakah to our family, Insya Allah.

So, what did you have for Sahur today? We had a simple meal, white rice+sambal ayam+Coffee+Orange Juice+Dates. But most importantly, my sahur was spent with my most important person in my life. My love, hubby & Lana (tho she was still sleeping)...
Hahahahaha sorry..saya syahdu, jiwang karat di petang Ramadhan ;-)

Anakku 'MALU' untuk bersalaman..HELP!

I think the word MALU is totally inaccurate. She's not 'malu' all the time, sometimes she makes excuses sampai dipaksa utk salam & cium tangan sedara mara.. haisyyyy.. malu mak!

She's almost 5 now, and this salam & cium tangan issue is still worrying..

Can anybody share how did you cope with this ? How to pujuk? We've talked to her & tried so many ways to pujuk.. ada improvement sket la, but I'm still wondering what went wrong & what we haven't done to encourage her??

and...please don't give me these: "alaahhh biarlahh kecik lagi, nanti pandailah dia, jangan paksa..." .............no thank you. I've heard soo much ;-)
