* happy birthday to yoU *

(you're 53!!)


Dearest Abi,

I miss your hat,



I miss your white shirt,



I miss your smile,



I miss your laughter,



I miss your jokes,


( "siapa punya kaki lagi besar?" katanya )

most of all: I miss your songs!

My daddy loves to sing. Especially, when he is lulling Tasneem to sleep (and when he thinks no one is listening...hehe)

I can never forget this conversation; which happened just before Tasneem fell asleep, between Abi and Tasneem:-
Abi: (mengaji sambil buai Tasneem)
Tasneem: Abi, nak 'Seroja'.
Abi: (mengabaikan permintaan lagu tersebut dan sambung mengaji)
Tasneem: Abi, 'Seroja' la!
Abi: (buat-buat tak dengar)
Tasneem: Abi!!! Nak 'Seroja'!!!! huhuhuhuhuhu~ (nangis)
Abi: (mengalah) All in all, I really miss home! ^[ Abi & Ummi ]^ ^[ Abi & Uncle Jay (can you see the similarity between these two? hehe!) ]^ *** Pictures by: Naneen & Imran. Edited by: Picnik *** Oh yeah, Abi's voice sounds exactly like this (I'm not kidding): *** and today is Christmas Day here in Egypt. (Just in case you're wondering why are there all those crazy/cute little things in the pictures)
