late nite posting

I could not sign in to blogger these past few weeks - so there were quite much that had taken place!

Pa & Ma went for their umrah with Tok & Uda, and had been back on Msian soil for some 5 days... they were so happy, n now planning to go again, soon. So, as the usual for those coming back from the Holy land, there were kurma (yum,yum), nuts, air zam-zam, and souvenirs such as jubah and ketayap... my girls grinned from ear to ear when they received their necklace.

Anyway, what happened during the time we sent them off is worthy of mention here. Knowing that the grandparents were going on a plane, our darling Nisa kept asking about when they were getting on the plane. However, once she could no longer wave to them, she then pestered us - "Bila kita nak naik kapal terbang?" We laughed, and told her gently that we won't be going on the plane that day. Then, we went to pay the parking fee, using the token, as usual.

In the car, she sat subdued for some moments. Then suddenly, she piped up, "Kenapa kita tak naik kapal terbang ni?" We again told her that we won't be getting on one. However, she looked puzzled, and asked us, "tapi kita dah beli tiket tadi?" We laughed out loud, as it was funny to discover that the clever young mind was confused, as she thought that the parking fee we paid was for a plane ticket! Hm, if it were that easy...!
