Wanted to update earlier on our beloved Lil Darling but too occupied with works and jalan-jalan. Hehe. Just before Lil Darling turning 2 years old :
Scene I
Lil Darling was drinking her milk and suddenly tak habiskan susu then pergi main.
Ibu : Khayra, habiskan susu OK.
Khayra : Ibu oh ibu, tanak habiskan susu sebab dah kenyang.
Ibu : (Terkejut as she could say the complete whole sentence)
Scene II
Lil Darling was drinking her milk while watching BabyTV. At that time, Maghrib was just around the corner.
Abah : Khayra, go to Ibu and mandi.
Khayra : (Berhenti minum susu) Tengah minum susu-lah!
Abah : Haha, OK .. OK. Afterwards OK?
Khayra : OK (sambung minum susu)
Scene III
Fetched Lil Darling at school and went to my parents’ house. Lil Darling was at the back on her car seat. Suddenly I made sudden break as the front car tak bagi signal nak belok kiri.
Khayra : Ya, Allah! (sambil panjangkan leher nak tengok kereta depan, pastu buat muka marah)
Haha, she’s protective like that!
Scene IV
Tok Ngah bagi note RM50.00 to her. I forgot to keep the money and she was playing with it until the day after, bila teringat baru tanya Khayra:
Ibu : Khayra, duit Tok Ngah bagi mana?
Khayra : Hmmm (pergi kat sebelah sofa, seluk kat dalam pouch) Ni, Ibu! (excited)
Ibu : (Nasib baik ada dan Khayra ingat. Pheww) Lega. (Haha!)
Scene V
In the car. Pasang CD kesukaan Khayra consists of nursery rhymes dan lagu kanak-kanak yang lain. Lagu “Di Tanjung Katong” bersiaran. Suddenly,
Music : “Di Tanjung Katong …”
Khayra : Airnya biru .. (keep on singing the song) Di situ tempatnya, dara jelita ..
Kami terkejut sebab we did not hafal dan tahupun pasal lagu tu. Haha! Nursery rhymes lain tak hairan sebab Khayra dah tahu but this one?! Haha!
Kadang-kadang tak terkejar dengan apa yang Khayra dah tahu or hafal sekarang. Banyak sangat (atau Ibu terlalu sibuk lalu tak sempat catch up. Huhu!). Haritu tanya Khayra pasal ABC, tiba-tiba dah tahu Khayra hafal ABC song A to Z, juga hafal Alif Ba Ta sampai Ya, juga tahu semua lirik lagu “Ibu Ratu Hatiku” tanpa Ibu atau Abah perlu nyanyikan, tahu beberapa huruf dan juga tahu macam-macam benda.
Sekarang dah mencecah 2 tahun, lagi banyak yang Khayra belajar / tahu. Juga ada tantrum baru yang kami perlu hadapi. Juga persoalan-persoalan yang banyak perlu kami jawab dari mulut kecil itu sebab daya ingin tahu yang tinggi. Tak lupa alasan-alasan yang logik yang perlu kami kemukakan bila pertanyaan demi pertanyaan dilemparkan untuk mengetahui sesuatu perkara (Why, Ibu? Where, Ibu? What, Ibu? – she conquers all the questions. Heh)
Now please tell me, where did the time go? Or I’m getting old to catch up on everything? Sob.
Lil Darling, please don’t grow up too fast!
