LIFE's GIFTS

So much so for the holidays spent with our children at BK3 and we definitely had a superb time together. Apart from attending weddings, visiting relatives and close friends we as usual had a good gathering whenever we could because unfortunately their working life forbid so... but we still had a great time over every dinner!

Hubby and our son had their man's job.... they painted the whole internal wall, which took about 3 days to complete. Installing framed photos and drilling and plugging for shelves, fixing dripping taps, replacing broken tiles, cleaning, scrapping the stained wall and floors and mopping ..... urgh.... all their jobs.... but I had this certain happiness inside me seeing the strong bonding between father and son.... How I love these two men in my life!

Nothing compares to us, girls, close relationships.... my daughters are my friends and I can confide in them. Between the three of us, no doubt, no secrets and no restrictions...... We spent one day roaming around the Klang Valley till my knees were wilted and had to beg for an adjourn with some soft chilled drinks to quench my thirst and surrender with pathetic exhaustion.... ohhhhh........BUT I bought some fabrics after visiting Nagoya, Harrison's and Kamdar along Jalan TAR. Then to Macy for some unnecessary items.. but still insist on buying.... typical of all girl... :) Then to Kelvin's place, and picking some other unnecessary items again. But there I had a nice chat with Kelvin himself.... about the retreat and him moving to Kayu Ara soon. Then to IKEA to get some bedding sheets and duvet for our son, Sulhi aka Boy. Here too I did not forget what I had promised Balkhis.... (If you want them, Khis, hop over to my place!)

All in all this holidays were very much meaningful and the happiest ever and the longest hubby had for his year end's break! Thank you all, Nia, Darr and Boy for making, Abah and Mama, happy and feel contented with life and for having all of you around us both.........
