Singapore

We went to Singapore for two days. Just because.

Not much to say about it.

But it adds to the list of countries we've visited.....

Last Playrgoup

Alhamdulilah we were blessed to meet a lovely group of families here in KL. We had playgroups weekly for the last year.  Alhamdulilah we've shared some special memories with them.  We hosted our last playgroup yesterday.  We made memory books, memory game cards, made our own pizzas and had icecream and balloons!

Its bitter sweet saying goodbye, but alhamdulilah for the memories.

Blocks

Dear Yusuf and Ibby,
Right now you're playing with wooden blocks. You're making towers and cities and driving your toy cars around. You've made up some challenge that includes keeping score with checkers pieces.
One day you'll think this is baby game and will no longer be interested.
Please don't grow up too fast tho. I love watching you play.
Love,
Momma <3

Lego

I love Lego.
It keeps the kids busy.
It sparks they're imagination.
It brings them together.

I hate picking up Lego!
Accidently stepping on it kills!
I get annoyed at bending down to pick it up.
I know some moms who don't allow Lego in their house for this reason.

But every time I sigh with frustration at the countless lone Legos I find around our home... I know one day I'll miss Lego.

I'll miss Lego.
Because one day they'll grow out of it.
One day they'll stop dumping the Lego box.
One day they'll stop showing me their creations.

I love Lego.
It signifies their youth.
It signifies their innocence.
I love Lego.

[Yes.... I just attempted to write something that resembles a poem, on Lego. It's late, I should sleep =) ]

'SuperStrike'

The boys love making Lego n sometimes they make some really cool things. I told them I'd start taking pics of what they make to post them on the blog so they can look back at it.
