Merdeka! Happy Birthday sayang

Yousof made this!

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! 

I don't think there are more excited kids out there than mine. They woke up at the crack of dawn today full of anticipation. Though, I doubt that they know exactly what Merdeka means. At least they aren't shouting "Mendekar!" like last year..hehe.

Thankfully, their Tok Wan managed to procure some free mini Jalur Gemilangs for them to wave enthusiastically. Although it was kind of dangerous because Hamzah preferred to bonk his siblings on the head with his flag rather than wave it in a patriotic fashion. Instead of singing the normal Merdeka anthem ("tanggal 31 bulan 8 ..57"), we all sang a song that everyone knew the lyrics to. "Happy Birthday!"

Because today is also the day that my little princess Aishah turns 3 years old. 

If I don't say it enough, remember I love you

If I don't show it enough, remember I love you

If I can't give you enough, remember I love you

If I can't or don't or won't ...remember I love you

Remember I love you from that very first day

Remember I love you no matter what I say

Remember I love you come what may

Remember I love you in my own way

 I Don't Wanna

I don't wanna do anything,

Nothing is all I wanna do,

Except maybe sleep a little longer,

Now that is absolutely true

I don't wanna get out of bed,

Or go to work today,

Just wanna stay under the covers,

No matter what you say

I don't wanna be here right now,

Somewhere else I wanna be,

Where deadlines do not exist,

Someone come and rescue me

Not my feet :(
