A New Year, Birthdays, and Such

Yes, She is 10 Now!

I know it's already 15 January but I just got the opportunity to flashback a bit into the first day of new year. As usual 1 January means celebrating our new year baby, Zea, who turned 10 this year. The special thing about this year birthday was I had to go to Mecca on that day. This Umroh issue was a kind of sudden idea. Never thought that I could visit this holy land in this January. However just like people say when it's time for you to visit Mecca and Medina, suddenly everything seems so simple and there you are, at the purest place on earth. Masya Allah.

Other important occasion was 14 January as I celebrated my 44th birthday. Such an age. A twin numbers. How do I feel being 44? Honestly, I feel good. I just pray to God to bestow me with a good health. Health becomes a very crucial issue when you reach the age of 40. You discuss about this issue almost every time, anywhere with every one. Just check the whatsapp groups, this health issue is one of the favorite topics besides the politics. Gosh, I guess health is much sexier topic than politic, at least now.

The 44 birthday was highlighted by having lunch with my hubby and the girls at Marco restaurant. I heart this Padang Peranakan Restaurant. Always love the food, snack, drink and everything served there. The taste is just super yummy. A perfect way to embrace the special day.
