Feeling Blue

So I've been feeling just like the post title is saying "blue". Sometimes everything just catch up with a person without you even knowing. My daughter has been sick a lot and in hospital recently, I had to write an exam in that time ( last year after my maternity leave clever me went back to studying). So picture being mom, wife, working and part time studies haha, I can just laugh at myself, its no joke. So I obviously choose my daughter, I would do it over and over again ,I just thought the hell with the exam, I can do that again but my daughter I won't get back if something should happen to her. 
So I guess all the stress, worry, little sleep and poor eating habits just caught up with me and made me sick, I haven't been eating well, it's like I just eat more than usual under stressful situations,I don't care what I eat and I haven't been exercising at all for a while now, so I picked up a few kilos :( Then to top it off I got so sick last week I couldn't get out of bed my body was so sore, I took so much meds just to feel better , I think my body just couldn’t fight anymore. 
I felt so negative and sad and thought to myself I don't want my daughter picking up those negative energy, I need to pull myself together and make peace with the fact that I couldn't write all my exams and in return more time wasted, it already takes forever to study part time, but the most important thing is my daughter is fine and I spent my time with her when she needed me the most and that's all that counts. The thing is as people we tend to concentrate so on worldly things(dunya) and being successful in this life that we sometimes forget what's most important in life, I'm at a point in my life where I just feel to be mom to my daughter and that's it.This week has been much better, I'm feeling my mad old self again,  I'm grateful for everything, Alhamdulilaah and Happy Weekend to you beauties ♡

Mother's Day



So the day is here, the day where some will see their children for the first time this year, where some will get spoilt and pampered and some won't even get a call or a flower. Yep that's the reality of what's happening, I ask myself the question,how do you do that to your own mom,the one that brought you in this world? They say Jannah(Heaven) lies at the feet of your mother.

For all the years when we where struggling to fall pregnant I always wanted to be a Mom and celebrate Mother's day,just to be part of it, I remember in May 2011 just before Mother's day when I lost my first baby bean (had an Etopic Pregnancy  and lost my one Fillopian Tube) I thought I'd never have children and never celebrate mothers day and here I am on my second mommy's day with my baby almost two and thinking of planning baby number two. hehe all too good to be true,I'm so grateful,algamdulilaah ♡ she is my angel.
So for all the gorgeous women out there struggling to fall pregnant, keep the faith,keep the hope and never stop praying and believing,miracles do happen.

I never understood the reason why Mommies always had tears in their eyes for any phony reason like watching something on tv,reading something or just watching their kids do things ,  becoming a mom, I now understand why, ,,the joy,the pride the love they hold in their heart for that little one that makes them so soft.
Our children are our Angels send from Allah _ God .When pregnant we carry them near our hearts for months ...they hear our heartbeat.

Our mom's did a great job raising us, teaching us right from wrong, teaching us religion, school work, house work,some stayed home some had to work to make a living like mine, even though my mom were always working, I understood, I knew why she had to work, for me, but I never forgot what she thought me.And I'll always be grateful for that, Love you mom. This Unconditional love I now experience makes me realise how much I mean to my own mom.
To those of us that still have our mom's with us,we sometimes don't realise how lucky we are, myself included, this will be the first Mother's day my husband will be without his mom, a lot will feel lonely, lost and sad while others will be celebrating and enjoying the day with their mothers.

Being Mom is a tough, tiring, exhausting, never ending, non paying job , but I wouldn't trade it for anything, my daughter makes me so tired at times but brings me soo much more joy and happiness :)

To all the mommies out there ...
You all doing a pretty good job
Even though at times it feels like we failing
Like we cant go on,
we want to dissappear,
we want to give up, we can't move forward,
we tired all the time,
we do so much and neglect ourselves
yet get so little appreciation at times
Just remember, We, Us,You,
-> We doing an Awesome job,
♡Happy Mother's Day♡

In my first week as a mom, experience  unconditional love 

Myself with my Mommy and my daughter 

My first Mother's Day 🌸 2014





This beautiful poem I got from a other mommy blog, its so beautiful and so true just had to share, beware the tears......

From the moment you hold your baby in your arms,
you will never be the same.
You might long for the person you were before,
When you had freedom and time,
And nothing in particular to worry about.

You will know tiredness like you never knew it before,
And days will run into days that are exactly the same,
Full of feedings and burping,
Nappy changes and crying,
Whining and fighting,
Naps or a lack of naps,
It might seem like a never-ending cycle.

But don’t forget …
There is a last time for everything.
There will come a time when you will feed
your baby for the very last time.
They will fall asleep on you after a long day
And it will be the last time you ever hold your sleeping child.

One day you will carry them on your hip then set them down,
And never pick them up that way again.
You will scrub their hair in the bath one night
And from that day on they will want to bathe alone.
They will hold your hand to cross the road,
Then never reach for it again.
They will creep into your room at midnight for cuddles,
And it will be the last night you ever wake to this.

One afternoon you will sing “the wheels on the bus”
and do all the actions,
Then never sing them that song again.
They will kiss you goodbye at the school gate,
The next day they will ask to walk to the gate alone.
You will read a final bedtime story and wipe your last dirty face.
They will run to you with arms raised for the very last time.

The thing is, you won’t even know it’s the last time
Until there are no more times.
And even then, it will take you a while to realize.

So while you are living in these times,
remember there are only so many of them
and when they are gone, you will yearn for just one more day of them.
For one last time.

To the person who wrote this poem, Thank You.

Wow this just made me so emotional and brought sad tears to my eyes, to think it will all come to an end but we don't realise it as they grow. This again just a reminder what motherhood is about and how important it is to treasure every moment of it, the good and bad.

Again Happy Mother's Day ♡ Enjoy your day.

Happy New Year, Welcome 2015



Good day Shinies

Happy New Year, even though it's not our Islamic new year we still celebrate new years, everyone does,all religions, everyone all over the world.
My wish to everyone is to have a spectacular 2015, let it be a great one,may all your dreams and wishes come true and most importantly may we strive to become better individuals.
Whether 2014 has been a good or bad year for me I accept it as it is, whatever happened,  happened and was supposed to ,so I'm grateful.

To Love
To those that found new happiness in their lives I wish you all of the best, may your love grow from strength to strength.
Friends we lost and ones we gained. They say there's a reason they came into our lives even if it's just for a small period of time.
Loved once we lost and new ones that were born.


To Success
To the ones that had a successful year well done, but to those that feel they weren't successful this year, well here's to the new year, new possibilities, new opportunities.

To the Future
Everyone takes the new year as a clean page to start over, to start fresh,to new beginnings!
All the mistakes,losses,sadness we went through in the current year, to forget about it and start over.

Every year we start the year of with a bang, we make new years resolutions,we all know new years resolutions don't last too long, hehe, ,,we get to the second week or so then we give up,to those that stick to it, good for you.
There are really some resolutions I could work on like exercising,  less spending and more saving I'm sure everyone feel there's some they could work on.

Most common new years resolutions I always hear people make:
* exercise or exercise more
*eat less ,eat less take aways
*spend less
*oh and save more
*travel ,see new places
*study
*new job maybe
*focus on career
*and those that drink and smoke say they will stop this year, Oh wait they say they will stop every year.lol

From my heart
I just want to Shukr ,Thank the few who have been with me through the hardest of times. Thank you. I am blessed to have such amazing  people in my life. 2014 has been a challenging yet at the same time exciting and an amazing year for me. Thank you for staying around ♡
All praises be to the Creator for the chance to live throughout 2014, the good and bad memories. It is all this that make us all human and grow.
May Allah SWT forgive our sins, bless us with contentment in this world and  happiness in the Hereafter. °
