My Daughter Is My Best Friend, Really!

damia and dhia

When i have her, I am still in university (read my first entry 5 years back here) and only 22 years old, I remember juggling studies and taking care of her. It was hard but it taught me to be strong. Daytime, i went to class and she, to babysitter, night I play with her until she sleep then i continued my study. Its tiring, but it makes me appreciate my life and my relationship with her. There was also time when I  make a fuss about her but it just my hormones talking, I love her to the deepest.

After I finished my study, I am between job, we don't have money. sometimes i have to leave her with my mom when I get a new job that required my full time and concentration. It hurt me so much, but its for the better, for both of us. I cried in my heart countless time, for the lack of time that I spent with her. But being a mom is not as easy as being a single girl. Every step that we take come with great consequences not only to us but to our kids. People judgement is always on us, of course they are few that wants to understand and help, but how far people can see the weight of the world on you.

Now, I am an Engineer, a career woman. I can get her education and good life. Yes I am a single parent but my love for her and her sister is enough for both of them. But one thing for sure, she walk the same path that i walk, be it a hard, bumpy and terrible or easy and smooth one. For that she know me well, for that she is the best young 5 years old girl ever and for that she is my BEST FRIEND.

7. Lea & Perrin's seasoning

mix everything with chicken

:: momma knows best ::

Momma still pretty at her 50

Been wanting to publish this post for so long but time is my worst enemy so here for you momma on your b'day.

1. Momma is fierce, if we off limit,

- she caned us

- she chillied our mouth (for swearing)

- she rubbed the coconut shells on our mouth (for swearing again)

but then when we grow up we know not to cross the line.

2. Momma likes to dress up, and make sure we all girls do the same, she said a wife must look attractive on husband eyes.

3. Momma let us be ourselves. When we make choice even if it is a mistakes, she let us because she said human learned best from their own mistakes. It is called experience.

4. Momma knows us well. If someone talk bad about us, she listens but never take it seriously because she knows us well and will trust our judgement.

Love you, momma.

a simple gift bring smilesSSSS

Went to Carrefour to buy dinner when ran into stationary sales.

Bought Luna color pencils, 48 sticks, exercise books and full stationary sets for Damia

and coloring book and crayon for Dhia.

Look at those face...

Worth It!

: Happy Father's Day :

Well I remember when I am small, he always do my milk for me, and his cooking that will always put smiles on my face.

When I am in boarding school, instead of flared his anger whenever the discipline teacher called him to the school for my tremendous mischievous activity, he keep on saying he believes I am lacking of love and the teacher misjudge the situations.

We are not so close, but he plays a sentimental part for me, he is not always there for me but I know he cares.

He maybe not the perfect father in the world, but he is THE PERFECT FATHER for me.

"De La Rey" Phenomenon

Our sweet de La Rey

"De La Rey, De La Rey sal jy die Boere kom lei?
De La Rey, De La Ray,
Generaal, generaal soos een man, sal ons om jou val,
Generaal De La Ray "
(in Afrikaans)

" De La Rey, De La Rey will you come to lead the Boers?
De La Rey, De La Rey,
General, general as one man we'll fall around you,
General De La Rey"

I am not writing about the famous General Koos de La Rey, the lion of the west with his war tactics or about the famous song by Bok van Blerk which taking South Africa by a storm with its controversial lyrics that being said suggests the young Afrikaners to rebel against affirmative actions, but I am simply writing about our sweet little De La Rey - the Cat.

De La Rey,
I understand loneliness when i see you,
In this big world only oblivion is you,
Day passes and nothing new,
Just hanging there and wish the Wish come true.

De La Rey,
I feel abandon in your eyes,
Deserted when you still new to life,
Rightfully unfair but just realize,
Hard it is but you learn to survive.

De La Rey,
We are different yet we share,
The innermost feeling towards the one we care,
I cant promise I will always be fair,
But I wont desert you anytime, anywhere...

cheers
pixie (meow....)
