this post is full of numbers...it's my 100th post and today is my abah's 57th birthday....yeah, 1 year past his retirement and he's enjoying his retirement days...alhamdulillah he's still fit and healthy....
i used to follow my abah doing his activities when i was small...playing tennis, attending his police cadet activities, met some of his friends while drinking teh tarik, etc....i was the only child then, before my sister was born (we were 5 years apart), so i was quite a daddy's girl....
but when i grew up, we were not that close....but he gave me advices and started talking when he thought that i really need to hear his words....he used to teach me to read quran but i always ended up crying because he was so strict (with his caning stick)...then i learned how to read quran with my neighbour next door...
somehow, with his strict upbringing made me what i am today.....he always know what is best for his 2 daughters and never failed to attend to our needs...he was the one who took care of my mak when she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma 7 years ago..both me and my sister were at the universisty and school....he was very hardworking and very particular about his work....and with that, he was honoured with the Anugerah Mangku Negara (AMN) by the Yang DiPertuan Agung last year...
for me, he's the BEST abah...he is very proud of his 2 daughters...we are what we are today because of his dedication and determination to bring what is best in us....Thank You, Abah....May Allah bless you always.....
