Selamat Hari Raya to all Muslims celebrating Hari Raya Aidilfitri in the world. For us here in Malaysia, we’re on a week long holiday! Shern’s kindergarten gets an extra day of holiday on Monday, while Marcus will be back in school on Monday. Now that it’s holiday, the kids are so taking it easy at home, playing with toys toys toys all the time, I’ve banned them for watching TV so they don’t get to watch telly unless they secretly do it when I wasn’t aware.
The maid is one lucky lady, I present her with a watch as gift for this Raya, and my eldest sister actually bought her a pair of very beautiful gold earrings. She has been wanting to get herself a pair of gold necklace, asking us to bring her to the goldsmith when we’re free, but we’re always not free. Hmmpph. But nevertheless, she’s a good maid and I think she deserves everything we gave her. Just hope that she’ll keep all the gifts we gave her over the years, gold bullion or not, to herself, and not to pawn it when she goes back.
