My Boy Sweet Boy

I am at home today-  I do not go to office as my handsome boy is not feeling well. I am taking what is called 'Emergency Leave' (is there such leave?):)

Thick green fluid comes out from my son's cute nose. He vomited last night- He had bad cough also and I woke up few times last night trying to feed him the ventolin (via the chamber - I never give him this when he is awake because he cannot sit still) -I only manage to do that towards the early morning hour because he did not really sleep- His nose was block so  he was breathing uncomfortably-

I am afraid that cough from an asthmatic child is not really a cough - it just tells me without medication and proper monitoring, he will end up with an asthma attack. He has it for 3 times already since birth.  His body temperature is slightly warmer this morning - green hingus (indicates virus) - he will need an antibiotic - so I bring him to clinic.

I call him by many names - Iman, Qayyum, Q, Aiman, Adik and to all these names he will answer me with 'huh?' not hmmmm as a 'yes' but always with 'huh?' with a question mark. That is his trademark. He will always answer me . If he does not answer back, meaning he is nowhere nearby and I should be panic by now (in a playground, or a shopping mall -
I will lose him if I do not keep my eyes on him but even if my eyes are on him all the time, I can still lose him as he runs here and there)-

The thing about my children is they will answer me always without fail if they are around - trained and enforced at home by me strictly - answer, 'ye ummi' if I call (nak kena PANG ngan Ummi try la buat dek heheh) - it is a trait that is very useful when we are in a crowded place-
if somehow I lose them among the clothes or behind the cashier's desk or groceries racks like the ones in Tesco - or I accidentally  ter forget them because I was too focused on the word SALE :) - I just need to call their name to know their wherebout (coz sometimes when I panic,I tend look everywhere-while  the actual fact is they are only a few steps behind as in front of me :))-
They will answer me if they are around - if not, please go ahead Erma -be panic and start searching :) - like a mad women - I will walk - as I walk and  walk, I would call their names - again if they hear me they will answer me (ni the girls la ni - sendiri2  tengok princess ke barbie ke kat area sinun:))

Only Qayyum answers me with, 'huh?' - maybe because he does not know how to say, 'ye' yet. Oh yes I have not yet let him wander-on his own- he is always strapped to his stroller or be placed in a groceries trolley. But sekali sekala terlepas, he will be very fast like lipas kudung


He just started calling me "Ummi" or " Mi" about 2 weeks ago. He is yet to say 'ayah'.

enjoying his ice cream

His first word is 'Nak'. Then he acquires more words - Ana, Anaaaaaa (my maid), Atukkkk but never "Ummi" until 2 weeks ago. Now I also hear him says, 'akut' (takut - when he screamed in the cinema) - 'mote' (remote) - pointing to Astro's remote.

He was born in May last year weighed 3.5kg- slightly lighter than her sisters each at 3.67 and 3.85 respectively :) (besar besar kan anak I then as they grow up they jadi kecik ).

He was born via caesarian but I got admitted before my operation date as he was eager to come out by 35 weeks- He could as the doctor did not allow him to do so  until he reached 36 weeks. And since the previous two were via caesarian , he could not  be born via normal labour even if he wanted (I think he wanted  that - that was why I got an early contraction).

Good job trying to get the ice cream out of the cone :)

Raising a boy is totally a different experience. He got the temper :)- angin sepoi sepoi bahasa heheh like whom eh? (not me definitely not inherited from me kekeke). He is as active and busy as bee. He falls many times. I have seen many 'eggs' appear on his forehead hehe. He got scars here and there.

PS:
His name means -Cahaya Iman Yang Kekal dan Terpuji - May he grows up as great as his name - Aminnn 

My apology coz this post lacks of coherence heheh - ikut flow idea ja  and panjang la pulak malas da nak edit nak g sambung baca twilight -:)

Till then- TA
