It has been more than a week since his circumcision. We had planned to hold a 'majlis kesyukuran' aka thanksgiving specially for him.
Alhamdulillah...for the smooth procedure. Alhamdulillah...because Aqil has been able to adapt well to his restricted condition and thus recuperating well. Alhamdulillah...for all these six years that he's growing up well & healthy despite his unique diet and only meeting milestones at later stages. Alhamdulillah for the patience blessed upon us that we are able to cope well with the meltdowns he suffers as an autistic...syukur alhamdulillah...;))
And it is indeed Aqil's luck aka 'rezeki' that we are able to hold the thanksgiving at a special place...alhamdulillah...
Hence, there wasn't much to do for the event coz everything has been accounted for. I decided to make some 'pulut kuning' aka yellow glutinous rice for the guests. The husbern has suggested just to place an order for the pulut kuning but I'd wanted to make them myself. The satisfaction and the fact that I wanna make something myself...as Aqil's mother...to give to the guests to convey our sincere thanks for gracing the event and for all the doas.
Managed to get all the pulut kunings ready a few hours before the event. And at that moment, suddenly thought of bubur putih bubur merah. I have never made that before...so what I did was to pick up the phone and call my 'helpline' aka my mother! Hehe!
And my awesome mother (as always) obligingly made some for Aqil's event...alhamdulillah...thank you Mak! ;))
We arrived at Mamanda just nice...moments later the guests started streaming in. Opened the event with doa selamat by Al Waris...alhamdulillah. And the event continued with guests coming in and out...with the husbern calling out for me everytime guests were leaving coz I was busy catching up with the guests...hehehe!
Aqil was oblivious of the whole event of course! Alhamdulillah...he was obliging enough to put on the gamis and even lasted the whole day! Seriously, this came as a surprise coz he had been refusing pants ever since he tried putting on once after the circumcision...we had thus expected him to refuse putting on the gamis.
He was pre-occupied with the ipad throughout the event...asking to go toilet only once...and was greeting the guests who came up to him subconciously & parroting me most of the time. Thank you so much to all the guests for understanding Aqil's condition & for all the doas.
Thank you Ya Rabb for everything...alhamdulillah. ;))
