Anak Marah2..How to handle? Mana nak letak muka? 

Macam ni yang saya buat kalau anak2 buat perangai..

Semalam 

Wardah gheyau dekat plauground macam kena dera..Sesungguh hati gheyau tergedik-gedik..meloncat-loncat.. I have to call her sister to bring her back home. Tanya pasai apa..rupanya sebab sweet nan sebijik..kawan bagi pada kakaknya..kakaknya bahagi dua..tapi Wardah mmg selalu at her weakest knee bila sampai kt bab2 makanan, sweet n cekelat...tak mau bahagi..nak kt dia sorang semua..Jadi semalam, dh dibawa kerumah.. dibagi :

WARNING..Mama kata..kalau menangih lagi pasai makanan atau benda2 yang sewaktu dengannya..tak boleh keluaq main at playground. And she agreed.

Today..

Today..she did it again...Lagi kena bawak naik atas..Mama ckp..duduk n diam..tp duduk n tak diam..
"I want to go out" Crying like H**l.
"Nope..you have promised yesterday..If you cry again because of sweet or food...you cannot go to the playground..tomorrow if you do it again..3 days you are not going..."
"Waaargh..but it was n accident!!" Nak gelak pun ada bila dengaq anak2 cari jalan untuk melepaskan diri...
"Well..cry more..tonight you sisters will be eating cake...if you are not quiet...you will get none"
Immediately..senyap...hahaha..umpan dah mengena..

I leave her to calm down in her room..
Told her..I want you to think of what you did..Whether it is good or not..
I will come back later.

When I came back..voluntarily she said..I'm not going to cry because of food anymore..
Then I explain to her..the things that she should not do..she is getting the cake because she is quiet but still she is not going to the playground..(Because she wanted to).

I reminded her :
Tomorrow if you do it again..3 days you are not going..."
SHE HAS TO AGREE TO THIS CONDITION. She said yes..

Then..she is quiet..calm..she took bath..and we read book together...

MoreThan1???

Opsss...Not wife ok...but Language for your kids..Hahahaha...

My kids now are fluent in three languages..Father's language ( Hausa), Mum's tongue

( Malay ) and English...with teachers and friends...

How did we do it?

Well.. It is not easy.. That is why I wrote this story under KERJA..KERJA..KERJA

( who remembered one of M.Nasir's song?..It has this word...n he is my favourite singer  by the way ).

This means..WORK...WORK..WORK...You want something..you work for it...

1. This is how we started with Widad..Our 1st girl..

    WE decided on which language to talk to her :

    Baba = Hausa, Mama = English, TV & baby sitter = Bahasa Melayu..

    Stick only to that language..

2. 2nd Girl Wardah

We changed our strategy..Of course..prayers help too....At this time ..I prayed that Wardah will have someone who can take care of her when I'm working...She is always sick..and hospitalized for one week. Alhamdulillah...Immediately after she came out from hospital, we met a Hausa lady..we called her Mama Didi (husband is a professor at UTM) and she is not doing anything at home..So..

    Baba n Mama Didi = Hausa, Mama = English , TV = Bahasa Melayu.

    See..we still stick to the same language..we just add some extra spice                 which is Mama Didi to streghten the kids Hausa.

Alhamdulillah...Wardah got better..in just I would say a blink and she refuse to mix with any Malays..We always laughed saying that..She thought that she is in Nigeria..Food..Language..People..All surrounded by Nigerian.

3.  3rd girl Wadeaa 

     Baba n Sisters = Hausa, Mama = English , TV & baby sitter = Bahasa Melayu.

    Well..Mama Didi went back to Nigeria..So we just make use of whatever spices           that we have.

But... Still we still stick to the same language..we just add other extra spices.

We are now staying in a place surrounded by non-Malays ( IIUM lecturers family ), UIA Apartment.           

Now..she speaks fluent Bahasa Melayu..Catching up with Hausa with her father..She can construct sentences already when speaking with her father and she speaks English with her friends around the house. Alhamdulillah..

I went to one workshop few years back..This was what the speaker said..

A child's brain is like sponge..It Absorbs.

At the right time..All the things that has been absorb will come out..

A child's brain can absorb up to

7 LANGUAGES...

Isn't it wonderful? 

This house..I called Home...

Walk With Us

Walk with them..hold their hands ..kiss them even if they don't want..These are my little ones..For me..they will never grow.

My first one is Widad (Love). Now 7, a very independent girl. refused to be kissed now. Ever since when she was small, she does not like people kissing her...It is dirty..so she thought..She knows where to keep her things so that both of her sisters will not touch her properties. Really know how to persuade her sisters in order to get what she wants (usually cycling turns because they have to share their bike). She can  tolerate her sisters. By the way, that is the first value that I have tought her, followed by responsible and so on.

My second one Wardah (Roses) is now 5..always a big fan of me..very demanding..asking  to be hugged and kissed..Someone that I can always bully..roll her here n there..pinch her chubby cheek as much as as I want. Whatever she says is always genuine..even though for us it is funny..If she is serious..she will made her point. A bit quiet compared to the rest and always confident with herself.

Wadeaa (Treasure) is my third one and she is 3. The most "outlaw" among all.. No one can touch me when she is around..She would claimed that I belong to her. "This is my mama..Mama E'aa..". Too pampered I think, perhaps because she is the youngest. Always able to manipulate situations, pointing her wrongdoings to her sisters. she made my husband said " Well..now I know why I did not get any boy.." And both of us will be smiling looking at each other..

All of them are very active. When Widad was small, I brought her to the doctor, worried because she doesn't know how to sit still. After checking, the doctor said that she is normal..It is just that she is a mix. That's all. If she is one step in front of me, I have to think of 11 steps forward so that I would be able to be at the same level with her..Hmmm...

We have to fill our day with lots of activities so that they are able to sleep well and early at night. They really have that extra energy. So, since they were small, we make sure that we always do outdoor activities. Normally, we walk up the hill. The picture that you see here..We brought them to IIUM to see the lizard. They were counting it.

If it is raining, we will play under the rain.But..you have to make sure that the rain is really heavy, no thunder and lightning. After that is another work. Bath them and massage them the whole body and they really like it. Followed by eating, play again, read Quran before sleep and then ...zzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Sometimes, we will take them out for a bus ride, swimming once a week and gardening.

We will let them play with grasses and dust. This I have learned from someone..

"The best way to make your kids healthy is by letting them to play with nature.."

Walk with your kids. Have fun and enjoy the day. This moment will never come back. 

Perlukah supplement?

Supplement & Vitamin Tu Semua Mengarut!

Aku Dah Memang Sihat!

Betoi ka?

BETOI TAK PAYAH...JIKA:

Kita MAMPU mendapatkan nutrisi yang secukupnya untuk badan, 

DAN MAMPU mempelbagaikan pengambilan makanan yang sihat.

AKAN TETAPI, pengambilan supplements juga amat berguna untuk mengisi lompong-lompong kekurangan nutrisi yang ada untuk badan.

Menurut Dr. Bruce B. Miller :

Sihat bukan bermaksud tidak sakit.

Hidup yang sihat ialah kehidupan yang positive, mampu memberi impak dan semangat yang positive pada diri sendiri dan juga pada persekitaran disekeliling..Anda juga harus mampu mengisi hari-hari anda dengan aktiviti-aktiviti yang menarik dan juga mampu untuk mencuba sesuatu yang baru di dalam hidup.

Mampu menikmati makanan yang sihat dan juga mempunyai sistem penghadaman yang sihat. Sistem penghadaman yang sihat haruslah mampu menyerap dan membuang nutrisi-nutrisi yang terdapat didalam makanan secukupnya. 

Hidup sihat sejahtera ialah hidup yang tidak dilanda apa-apa penyakit yang serius tanpa perlu menyalahkan umur sebagai alasan jika sakit.

Mempunyai kulit yang cantik berseri, otot badan yang sihat, mampu menahan tekanan, jangkitan dan juga kepenatan. 

Atas erti kata lain... Live up to your fullest potential!!!


Cuba anda ukur kesihatan anda. 

Bandingkan dengan erti sihat seperti yang tertulis diatas. 

Adakah anda betul-betul sihat?

Sihat Biasa? Sihat Optima?

                                   

Lihat senarai dibawah. Ini adalah situasi biasa..memang sering terjadi. Inilah normal. Inilah yang dikatakan sihat seperti biasa. Perkara-perkara biasa yang sentiasa kita lakukan hinggakan ia dianggap normal walaupun ianya tidaklah elok sebenarnya. 

Di manakah kita? 

ANDA MUNGKIN TAK PERLUKAN NUTRISI TAMBAHAN JIKA TIADA MASAALAH-MASAALAH BERIKUT:

• Berat badan berlebihan.
• Makan daging merah dua tau tiga kali sehari.
• Makanan segera lebih dari dua kali seminggu.
• Garam diletakkan di dalam makanan sebelum dirasa.
• Selsema tiga atau empat kali atau dilanda apa-apa penyakit dalam setahun.
• Tertekan (stress) dan kepenatan.
• Sering sembelit.
• Sebagai wanita..anda kekurangan kalsium, sakit-sakit badan dan stress selepas kerja.
• Anda teringin untuk berkeluarga? Ingin mempunyai anak?
• Mengandung atau sedang menyusu badan?
• Tidak suka produk tenusu, terutama sekali susu.
• Ada darah tinggi?
• Kurang terlibat dengan kegiatan di luar rumah? Lebih-lebih lagi dibawah cahaya matahari?
• Bersenam? Mengeluarkan peluh? Jaaaauuuh sekali.

Ini adalah senarai masaalah yang anda hadapi dan juga antara perkara-perkara yang anda ingin lakukan.

Teliti senarai diatas, adakah badan kita mendapat yang terbaik?

Saya tidak ingin sihat seperti biasa..Saya ingin sihat secara maksima..

I want to be in the best state that I can..

I want to have Optimal Health. 

The very best of the best.

Dan saya tahu, jika saya ingin mencapai kesihatan optima..
Saya perlu komited untuk mengubah cara hidup.

Masalah kesihatan, cara pemakanan dan juga keinginan..

Pastikah anda yang makanan yang diambil mampu memberi nutrisi secukupnya pada badan anda?

Pastikah anda yang nutrisi secukupnya mampu diserap kedalam badan?

Dimanakah kita sebenarnya? 

Sudan & Ramadhan

I was quite disappointed on my first day of Ramadhan..The chicken shop that used to be in the Bazaar was not there anymore..I was hoping to cook..

Nope...first day of Ramadhan eating outside is not a good idea..and failed to get upah for Widad for fasting one whole day for the first time in her life

( Giant HotDog stall was not tere too).

On the way back..my dear husband started smiling..

Well..I really thought that he has gone a bit cockoo..Jogging between Zuhur n Asr..just because I told him that his stomach now is even higher than his breast was the first sign....hahaha..

Then he told me..( Since he use to travel to other countries..either to work..or study..or both..well will tell about that also later..later..later..).

In Sudan, never come out from your house going to other people's house 1 hour before breaking fast..You will never reach there..People there breakfast outside. if they see you..they will force, pull you and even swear by Gods name..just to ask you to breakfast with them..

WHY?? For the sake of AJR..Pahala in Malay

or

REWARdS FROM GOD!!!!

WELL.. That is something new for me... :)
