August, month of suprises this year!

Lets start off with my younger son's 5th birthday earlier this month. We had birthday goody bags sent over to his kindergarten, and Khair is so overwhelmed that he hugs, kiss and hugs and kisses again for me. Sweety-pie. Forever a baby in our eyes.
He had two days fever a day after his birthday!
And few days later, while we were at his great-grandmother's house, he injured his feet accidentally stepped on a rusted metal, which he ended up with a feet infection. We brought him to the clinic and was given a jab and anti-biotics (we dreaded this!). Alhamdulillah. He recovered well.

And nope. No celebrations this year at our house as what we have been practising the past years. We are giving ways to Baby Furqan till maybe he is about 4 year older. And the same goes to Sufi too. His birthday celebrations stopped too.

Last few days, it was Sufi's birthday. And am glad that he recovered well from his pro-longed fever. After bringing him to the KKH, we found out that Sufi had chest infection and a suprise news, he has minor-thalassemia... Same as me. I was quite worried and sad, feeling a bit low as genetically he had it due to me having it. But, Rid was very assuring that its not serious. He is afterall a very active boy.
The answers to my questions, brownish hair, similarities in a lot of things. Maybe.
I still believe, 8 months of breastfeeding is never enough to fight chest infection or any other respiratory problems but it did help to maintain his thalassemia in an acceptable range.

Rid and myself, accept the challenges that God has bestowed to us. In fact, we should not be complaining for the sickness that the kids had this month. Its not so bad afterall, since they do not easily falls sick on a monthly rate. Its a few months once thing. Still, we will continue with trying our best to help them stay healthy and happy. Mind and body.

And I have to mentioned this still as a remembrance, Sufi did well for his CA2 exams despite him havng fever during that short hours in school. Well done my love!

I guess, its time for me to go back to MyMumsWorld (S) with the Breastfeeding Month and MMW birthday promotions. I am glad that all is well.

I am thankful  & blessed.
