Post Raya (Syawal 1432H / September 2011)



Ramadhan 1432H has just passed and we are now in the Syawal mood aka Raya mood!

Mummy and Daddy are so proud that Ababe Jr almost completed a whole month of fasting. Unfortunately on the last day (29 Ramadhan 1432H) he started coughing and had to take his medicines. That night we took him to the hospital for nebulizer treatment as we would be travelling the next few days for Raya! So for this year he managed to fast 28 days out of the 29 days.



Last year Ramadhan 1431H was the first year he started to learn to fast and he managed to fast for 10 days! I thought that was awesome because I remembered that I did not start to fast THAT early. Your Atok Man would be so proud of you my little hero.

This year for Raya we actually travelled extensively! First day we travelled all the way across the causeway to Singapore to celebrate Raya with Mr Ababe’s mom, grandma and relatives. We spent the night at Amansari Residence in Masai which was very nice and comfortable.

Second day we travelled all the way to the East Coast (Terengganu!) and celebrated with my big, fat Malaysian relatives. We visited relatives in Kuala Terengganu, Dungun, Kemaman and Kuantan. What a holiday!

The one week holiday I had as usual seemed too short. One month of Syawal will soon come to an end and we hope and we pray that we will get to see another Ramadhan and to celebrate another Syawal.

Upon the ending of Syawal, it will be 1 Zulkaedah 1432H (29 September 2011) and Ababe Jr will be 7 years old (according to the Islamic Calendar)!

Selamat Ulang Tahun then, Ababe Jr!

~Mrs Ababe~
