Glorious 70

Rania in our house garden, ready to go to celebrate Nenek's birthday. Saturday 021113
My 70th birthday cake from the children.
Rania and Gabe were helping to blow my birthday candles. 021113
I didn't feel 70 at all!!! My birthday fell on 1 November but the children were able to get together only the next day. Unfortunately Justin was not able to join us as he was in Singapore for work.Postponing to Sunday 3rd wasn't practical either as Izrin and family was leaving for Krabi for holidays. So sorry Justin, we had birthday lunch in Bangsar without you.
My family celebrating my birthday at Bangsar, a day later. Justin was in Singapore for work.

Alhamdullillah and syukur to Allah for giving me life with good health though advanced glaucoma is with me. I am dealing with it as best as I could. May Allah bless my children, son and daughter-in-law and my grandchildren. I am proud and happy that I have good children, caring son and daughter-in-law and adorable grandchildren. Thank you Haidi and Izrin for the birthday dress you gave me. You made sure I am up-to-date with fashion. I love it.
Maz just came back from Turkey and Jordan bringing with her things that would bring comfort to my life. Thank you Maz and thank you Ika and Justin for being there for me.
I have a full happy life with people I care around me.
Thank you also to ex-students, friends and Bang Ifin for your good wishes. May Allah bless you all.
