Meeting a Doctor Again
.
Mom brought me to see a doctor again. This time was for the hipertitis B injection, the first dose. Since Dad was so busy at home, grand dad has to drive us to the clinic. Everybody was in the car except my two big brothers. As usual they would prefer to play football. I was indeed so scared and this was another nightmare to experient. I felt like to tell mom that it was enough. I did not think mom would really bother to listen to my complaint. I know, as usual mom will tell me that this will be the time for me to be a hero. I have heard these words for so many times and can speak her mind already.
.
First when we entered the doctor's room, mom will greet with salam. The doctor was a lady and mom told me that this was the doctor that mom brought all my brothers and sisters to see her when they were small. Initially, the doctor stripped me naked. Oh...how shameful I was. She put me on the weighing machine that read 4.5kg. The doctor was surprised and noticed that it was an incredible increment of weight i.e. additional of approximately 1.5kg since I was born. I was not paying attention at that time because I was crying profusely asking mom to put on my clothes. I heard that mom told her that I was actively asking for milk all the time.
.
The moment I saw the Doctor pulled a needle from her cabinet my heart was trembling. When bro Ikhlas saw the needle he questioned the doctor what was she trying to do to me. Bro Ikhlas showed his punch to the doctor if she dare to disturb me. Mom smiled to her and us and inform us that the doctor would not harm anybody. The Doctor was trying to keep us fit and healthy so that when we grow up we will be a strong and active person.

Be In Your Company
.

This is my sister Balqis. She told me that she is going to miss me so much. On the 8th January she will be staying in her school. She said that she will stay in the hostel and very seldom she will return home except for school holidays. She asked me to come and visit her every weekend. But mom cannot promise her because dad will be outstationed for a long period. The only promise mom can mentioned was to visit every month or forthnightly.
This is my second sister Shamim. When Balqis leaves, I want her to be next to me every time. I want her to read a book next to my bed side before I go to sleep. Mom said that she is very independent. She will take care all of her belongings briliantly and very discipline. Mom always told me to be like her. But I'm a boy and would rather be like brother Ikhlas. I want to be a boy not a girl. Mom told me the right attitude and discipline will determine my rightous path either you are a girl or a boy.
Is Eight Is Enough
It was a Chrismas day. Mom said that grand ma and aunties will come from Kedah. Since it was a public holiday, dad said that it is better to take the picture of the entire family. I remembered that morning dad was screaming to everybody to get ready for a photography session. Dad always said ... "Everybody please listen to me before I change into a monster". Sister Syahadah is very naughty to adopt what ever dad said whenever everybody was reluctant to move.
.
I was not feeling comfortable when sister Balqis was holding me. It was not similar the way mom was holding me. I was hoping that the photography session will end quickly. Dad was particular about this event and ask everybody to put on their best hari raya dress. And mom told me that I was the most charming person in the photo. Thank you mom........and you are the best mom on earth!!!!

Meeting A Doctor
.
On the 21st December, Mom brought me to see a doctor. It was because of my ring worm that stuck to my cheek. The ring worm grew larger and larger. Mom quite worry about it and wanted it to dissappear immediately. Mom ask my cousin, Zulaikha to drive because Mom is still weak to handle the car. This will be my third times meeting a doctor. My second experience meeting the doctor was not that good. It was a painful meeting whereby he cut my 'dick'. Hhhhmmmm.........I hope this is something different.
.
The doctor was an old lady. Mom said that she was a nice Indian lady. She was suprised when she looked at me. She said that breast feeding baby must be strong and should not get infected by ring worm. I was staring at her when she talked to my Mom. She advised Mom to keep away Rina from me as directed by my Dad. It was a very quick visit. She gave Mom a cream to apply to my cheek twice a day and within three days the ring worm will disappear.
.
Dad came back early from office today. He took me to the garden and asked Mom to have few photos with me. I was not in a good mood to be photographed. I was fall asleep but Dad keeps on pushing me to wake me up. Finally Dad asked Mom to hold me near the palm tree to have a nice shot. I was happy being in the garden to have some fresh air and a bright sun light. Now I noticed that the world is not just the four corners of walls but instead the world is big enough for me to roam freely.........
My 20th Day
Today is my 20th day. Mom said that I can grap her index finger but I still feel that I am very small when I compare to it. Mom keeps on telling me that day by day I am gradually growing up and I am going to be a good boy. Sometimes, I like to tell Mom and Dad everything that is in my mind. I know that it is impossible for me to expose all my thoughts and for them to comprehend. I did few gestures to them to indicate my sign language and to demand their attention. My common gestures that they noticed was crying. Hhhhmmmm....sure they knew that I was hungry or I need to be changed. But others they only guessing. Anyway Mom and Dad also improving their skills regarding to my gestures. Not only me need to learn but Mom and Dad also need to learn about myself.
.
For the past few days I felt something itchy to my left cheek. I try to scratch with my fingers but it wouldnt work. I was crying and would like to tell Mom that, ' Hey please look at my cheek. Something bad is happening to me'. I saw Dad enter the room and ask mom to pass me to him. As usual, first Dad will kiss to my lips and cheeks. Then he will kiss to my fore head. Suddenly Dad observed that there was a ring-worm as big as a five cents coin stuck to my cheek. 'Ooooo.....we need to see a doctor immediately', Dad said.
.
I heard that Mom asked bro Hadi to keep Rina in the cage and outside of the house. Mom asked my sisters to vaccum the house as well. This ring worm must be something to do with Rina. I just wondered, Rina never came near to me and how could I got infected by this desease? Mom told me that this was due to the transmission from the kisses of my sisters and brothers. From that day onwards, Mom prevented my sibling from kissing me unless they are really clean. Hehehehe...such a relief .........and now I really can sleep peacefully...

Precious Moments
.
I'm chubby now. That what Mom told to me. Whenever I was feeling hungry, I will cry for milk. Mom will pick me up and hold me close to her breast and placed her nipple to my mouth. That was an exciting moment. I feel so close to my Mom. I feel that Mom loves me so much and I feel secured. After I finished Mom will 'burp' me for a while. Mom said to safe me from excessive vomit.
Dad will come to me when he returned from work and early in the morning before he went to his office. He will hold me close, pinching my nose and stroking my rosy cheek. He will kiss my fore head and cheek numerous times until I cry than he will hand over to Mom to stop my crying. I can sense the smell of Dad whenever he hold me. Now gradully I can recognise who is holding me. I can feel that those individual people possessing different scents and smells.
.
Every morning, my sisters and brothers will come near me to give me a hug and kisses. They will surround me for a while and making so much noise. I told Mom that sometimes I could not sleep with their present. What I will do is to cry in order to get attention from Mom and Dad. Let Mom and Dad shun my brothers and sisters away from me for a time being. But Mom told me that they are not coming to disturb or harm me. Mom said that they came here to develop the love and effection between me and the family.
My 15th Day
Time flies so fast and now I'm 15th day old. Dad told me that today will be a photographic day. Dad put me on the bed and disallowed my sisters and brothers to interfere. Dad said that he wanted the best shot for my photos. I was so happy and Mom dressed me up nicely with a blue romper with a nice lace at the neck. Mom told me that this romper, Dad bought it at the car boot sale 16 years ago. During that time Dad was doing his Master Degree and Bro Ubai was born in Bradford, United Kingdom. I don't know where it is but I can imagine that this place must be very far away from where I'm leaving know. I will ask Bro Ubai to tell me when I manage to talk.
I also noticed that many Mom's friends came to visit me. They started to compare my face to my sisters and brothers. Dad and Mom said that I'm more resemblance to Bro Ubai, but some other people said that I'm more to Bro Ikhlas. It doesn't matter to me. I saw they gave to Mom some money and they said that all the money is for me. Wow.......I hope many more people to visit me coz I can have it to buy toys...and to give Dad to buy my pampers. Yeah.. I wish I can help Dad to save his money.
.
Now I'm a hero. My 'dick' is completely healed from previous circumcision. Dad told Mom to keep the pastic ring that was used for the circumcision so that he can show to me when I grow up. Now I feel more comfortable when Mom pun the pamper on me. I dont feel the iciness anymore. But I was upset too. Bro Ubai and Bro Wan made fun of me. They took the plastic ring and teast Sis Adah and Bro Ikhlas. They said it was so smelly...Hmmmmm . Mom was upset too with their misbehaving character. Mom consoled me and informed me that this is the spice of life. There are bad and good moments that I will face when I grow up and that will lead me to be a strong man.
