One grey evening..

Yesterday was a grey day to Mom.. after abang William got fever for 3 days, now mbak Tri (the nanny) felt sick from early in the morning.. and also Mom, got this cough.. uughh...


Mom got home around 6p.m. when I found the silence covered all over the house.. what happened.. and where are all my brownie'scouts (kurcaci)?


Then I entered the room.. finding all the sound-maker fast-aslept..(pulas banget) hehehe.. it's still very early to a goodnight sleep but too late for afternoon nap.. they will break their rest-time if they sleep too long.. mine too..oh No.. I need a good rest now pliiisss.. hiks..


Quite strange with this silence, Mom quickly catch the moment before woke-them up... and voila !.. thank you to Opung Doli for accompanying these little simms (simanjuntak kecil)..




Outside, the light is getting darker.. and the weather too, not friendly..
I found this silence to reflect..
I wuv yáll babes.. with all the noises..
My body will compromise the condition.. -ur Mom-

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness.
God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence....
We need silence to be able to touch souls.
~Mother Teresa

My Mascots - I luv you!

There come times when I have nothing more to tell God.
If I were to continue to pray in words,
I would have to repeat what I have already said.
At such times it is wonderful to say to God,
"May I be in Thy presence, Lord?
I have nothing more to say to Thee,
but I do love to be in Thy presence."
~O. Hallesby

William 6th birthday

Wednesday, 17th September 2008

My son is turn six today. How happy mom I am. I pray to God, so thankful to HIM for His blessings like stars in the skies that I cannot count.. to remind me for always grateful for what I have now..

Flashing-back to 6 years ago.. when I still carried my baby in my tummy... we still lived in apartment in Kelapa Gading.. one day... when the day still dawn.. it's still very early for the baby to born from doctor's estimation.. but.. God had purpose.. and my baby born through caesar .. he is my prince William Paulus Nathanael.. born 17 Sept 2002, wt.2,8kg, lt.49cm.. luv you baby..

And now SIX years...

The day before his bday.. I packed some goody bags for his friends at school. Each pack contains 6 items (his bday): 5 chocolate candy bars and one book with different characters (Batman, Cars, Lilo, Dora, Spiderman, Naruto, Micket.. etc.. there are 20 of them). He helped me to list-down his friends name and giving personal touch to every pack (each got different character, depends on his observation).. so funny how he remembering one friend match with this, and another with that.... abang banget.. gitu loh.. *thanks to mom's friend tante Lely@office, for the books, really appreciate it*










When I saw him this morning.. with his school uniform.. and his smile.. not so chubby as usual.. but oke-lah.. he's a big boy now.. can't express my feeling of happiness.. 'til my tears dropped silently..


















I myself dropped him to school and entrusted my camera to his teacher, Ms. Anita.. to catch the moments with his friends in the class.. Mom not allowed to stay (school regulation). Hv fun, son!












Thank you teacher (Ms. Anita & Ms. Winda) and thank you friends... you make William's day more cheerful today...

Then, when I returned home after work.. he told me about what happened at school and keep talking about his friends... how they love the goody bags... good then... hehe...

What surprised me that OMA was there.. since noon my mom was playing with abang, kakak and dede too.. thanks mom.. you are the best OMA ever !!

One more... the best part of his day... is open the gift from PAPA (not here).... look at that expression of happiness.. ya iyaalah... the gift is PSP alias Play Station Portable.. a gadget that he's dreaming of forever.... hehehe.. Thank you Pap....

*another thank you note: for Regi, also mom's friend at office, for adding Sponge Bob application's game to PSP.. makasiiyy yah..*

Last... I am so happy for you baby.. you always my Proud.. my angel..

May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day.

May songbirds serenade you every step along the way.
May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that's always blue.
And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.
~Irish Blessing

Article - The colors of friendship

The Color of Friendship

by: Author Unknown, Source Unknown

Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel. All claimed that they were the best. The most important. The most useful. The favorite. Green said: "Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and leaves. Without me, all animals would die. Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in the majority." Blue interrupted: "You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea. The sky gives space and peace and serenity. Without my peace, you would all be nothing." Yellow chuckled: "You are all so serious. I bring laughter, gaiety, and warmth into the world. The sun is yellow, the moon is yellow, the stars are yellow. Every time you look at a sunflower, the whole world starts to smile. Without me there would be no fun." Orange started next to blow her trumpet: "I am the color of health and strength. I may be scarce, but I am precious for I serve the needs of human life. I carry the most important vitamins. Think of carrots, pumpkins, oranges, mangoes, and papayas. I don't hang around all the time, but when I fill the sky at sunrise or sunset, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another thought to any of you." Red could stand it no longer he shouted out: "I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood - life's blood! I am the color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. I bring fire into the blood. Without me, the earth would be as empty as the moon. I am the color of passion and of love, the red rose, the poinsettia and the poppy." Purple rose up to his full height: He was very tall and spoke with great pomp: "I am the color of royalty and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey." Finally Indigo spoke, much more quietly than all the others, but with just as much determination: "Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me, but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, twilight and deep water. You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer and inner peace." And so the colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in fear, drawing close to one another for comfort. In the midst of the clamor, rain began to speak: "You foolish colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the rest. Don't you know that you were each made for a special purpose, unique and different? Join hands with one another and come to me." Doing as they were told, the colors united and joined hands. The rain continued: "From now on, when it rains, each of you will stretch across the sky in a great bow of color as a reminder that you can all live in peace. The Rainbow is a sign of hope for tomorrow." And so, whenever a good rain washes the world, and a Rainbow appears in the sky, let us remember to appreciate one another. But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, All losses are restored and sorrows end. ~William Shakespeare Dedicated to all my friends... Cheers.. -fiona-

I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful. ~Author Unknown

When pride kills you.

Jack Palance: "Do you know what the secret of life is? One thing. Just one thing.

You stick to that and everything else don't mean shit."

Billy Crystal: "Yeah, but what's that one thing?"

Jack Palance: "That's what you've got to figure out."

~From the movie City Slickers

It is better to emit a scream in the shape of a theory

than to be entirely insensible to the jars

and incongruities of life

and take everything as it comes in a forlorn stupidity.

~Robert Louis Stevenson, "Crabbed Age and Youth," Virginibus Puerisque, 1881

The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be. ~Socrates

Gaya tidur anakku..

Ini William lagi bobo

Ini Kylie lagi bobo juga
Ini Kian ikutan difoto lagi bobo
Tarraaaam... tappee deeh..
The days are cold, the nights are long,

The North wind sings a doleful song;

Then hush again upon my breast;

All merry things are now at rest,

Save thee, my pretty love!

~Dorothy Wordsworth, "The Cottager to Her Infant"
