More people lepak-ing and eating

The elderly man in grey to the far end is Om Teh. Wonder whats he doing in Yogya now. The kid concentrating on his food in the red baseball cap is Hakim the Guardian of the Needy. Always very helpful anytime anywhere. Most of the time I wonder whether the world would be a better place if everyone is as unselfish as this boy. Can never leave his kid brother Hafiy alone, always on the lookout for oportunity to tease. But as they say (they lagi)........brotherly tease means a show of love and possesion. I used to bully my younger brother Aidil when we were kids......but it bonds us good now.

Potrait of a man

In the name of the father......... of the three Wans; Ari, Hakim and Hafiy..........meet Abang Hairudin. That long gaze, stories of a photo. Doesnt speak much........but with the dearest empathy of heart that I have ever found in a man. My aspiration aside from my father in the way he treats his children. A provider of any sort.......a simple man.

Lepak moments

This was taken at ka'afah ukay perdana. There were many of us there, lepak-ing after a full night's work of previous lepak-ing at HaiTiza's new house. Here are Wan Hafiy and Wan Aleesha (hope the spelling's good). Wan Hafiy....pre-millenium generation meets Wan Aleesha....post-millenium. We like to lepak.......its the way we spend time with family talking about the future, the past and much more. If I were to look back a few years back......actually quite a few years back when I was at school, I'd not have imagined K titiek to have three smart boys, I'd not have imagined Abg Ija to have teenage daughter plus a boy, nor can I imagine K Ayu and Abg Adek to have that many boys and girls......nope....no sireeeeee. In recent years.....I cant even imagine me having a child......let alone the surprise of the bunch....Wan Aleesha....God is Great!! But time flies and here we are.......made babies.....some are still making.....some are away, some are here. I remember when K ayang was getting married........everyone were there......everyone. Now, we've been bereft of a grandmother and several uncles and aunts, latest being our beloved Om Chik (Al-Fatihah). I hope the new generation in the family will keep this tradition....lepak-ing. At the end end of the day.....one thing matters most......we are Family and Always Will Be.
