My two cents on parenting....

How fast time flies...without really prepared of what's coming suddenly we are reaching the end of another year. One more year to brace new obstacles one more journey to face....With two kids in the luggage, life just get pretty interesting...especially in watching how much they have changed..starting from tiny little angels in my cradle.

My son got his yellow belt for taekwondo. Still remember on the day of his test coming home had to face mummy's interview session..
Mama: "How's ur test? Did you do well?
Ihsaan:" Ok...Yes, I do well....
Mama:" So, will you get your yellow belt?"
Ihsaan:"Can.....of course"
Mama:(Started to feel weird of his over confidence act)"How do you know you'll get ur yellow belt??"
Ihsaan:" Because Master do like this...showing two thumbs up gesture....elleehhh..."
Mama: eh..eh..got elleh why? now cant help but grinning wide....funny little sort...

Actually, before deciding to pay for his test fee...I was considering of not allowing him to took up the test simply by assuming that it was non important enough to do anything with his future...when history of my past started to flash in front of my eyes, I'd changed my mind...to allow him to take any test that come across his way after this...as long as I live la...

So flashback moment that affected my decision and also setting a new point in my approach regarding parenting. It was during my form 5 year that I was suppose to take a triple one nine test...am ready to pay with my scholarship money...but true to heart, as an obedient child I seek consent from the elders...and the opinion got was..not to take because I was not that good in English pun and it was such a waste of money to pay such amount just for test that you not even good at pun...katanya lah....So ...I accepted the decision with broken heartla...because I believe in myself that I can do better than the elder la...there's no harm in trying anyway...but as a family with a restricted luxury...spending money on such thing seems unnecessary...The effect....for years I kept on wondering what's my results would be...
Lesson learnt,...if you have any opportunity in knowing your capabilities just go ahead...and give it a try...there's no harm in trying...at least u grab the chance to know for sure what's you're capable of...

Maka, starting from that moment on..I will support and allow my children even recommended to everyone to just take whatever test that are coming your way....It's good to know your own strenght and learn from any outcomes...Opportunity only comes once, grab it while it's in front of your face...like me..I'm not quite have confidence in my son ...I know he's clever enough but...physically...hmmm he's so fragile....(haishhhh...Mama!)...Surprisingly though....the results...if only you open the door to various wonders...(smiling at peace nii....)
