my lil smiling angel
fara | 4/9/2008 | 9:42 pmi had a bout of food poisoning on sunday which carried onto monday. needless to say, i was pretty much useless those two days. anak2 pun layan ala kadar – jangan sampai kena tahap jadik anak terbiar. amir? he just had to live with it 
(two days aje ehhh awak?)
… tuesday morning i woke up and dragged myself out of bed to get myself and the kids ready to head for work/school/yaie’s.. was in the midst of assisting kakak with her morning bath when we had the following conversation.
k: mama, are you going to work?
me: yes, why?
k: you feeling better now? not sick anymore?
me: (still feeling a tad bit sorry of myself)… not that sick.. but i have to work
k: then can you please smile at me?
*gulp!* mentally kicked myself for being self-centered as i realised that being sick does not preclude me from at least making an effort to smile with my own kids!
immediately beamed at her and apologised for being an ass (which is not the exact word i used, of course?!).. to which she graciously responded ‘it’s ok, ma. i know you weren’t feeling well. but now you are better, smile ok?’
so. if you haven’t done so. smile to those close to you …
and even to those not so close.
you got nuthing to lose and everything to gain. 
your kakak is so bijak!
tu la… touched giler
