Waking up to the smile of pure bliss, and to the scent
of milk and sweet breath. These are some of the many precious moments that Baby ZY has given us since
he arrived. Alhamdhulilah.
As I write this, I only have gratitude for Allah’s
(S.W.T) plans in every detail that HE has written for us.
Just about say eight months ago, my mornings were
carefree, rushed, and at times, lazy.
Now, our mornings have donned a new meaning.
I don’t really have an eye on the clock anymore, all
because this little human has a way of stopping me right in my tracks.
Like today. With his little hands clutched around my neck
ever so tightly, sensing that I was about to leave for work with my bag over my shoulder... had me in tears as I walked out of the door.
I thank Allah for this and for many more melting
moments like these.
To all the Working Mums and Stay-At-Home Mums, let’s
embrace every moment that our children present us with…from the smiles, to the
snot, to the sleepless nights.
I've had the opportunity to experience what it would
have been like to be a SAHM over my extended leave (on top of the mandatory four months of maternity leave we are given here).
And I'm now experiencing what it’s like to be a Working
Mum. It’s sweet now, cuddling up to soulful eyes looking
down on me and touching my face…but this sweetness came after some months of a storm
of post-natal blues for me. (will share on them in another post soon,
In-Shaa-Allah)
So, my dear Sisters, only Allah can make our days and
nights easier. HE hears every prayer, every whisper of dzikir we are making.
Let’s keep loving our children.
