Need to disassemble your bed? Leave it to her.
Deep breathe. Hmmmphhh...pening kepala mother tau, Alma!
Once you figured it out, that's it. You 'd go on, over and over. Kind of serious at that!
Listen Alma.. yes - Abah is one kind of a man. The kind who manage to fix things and get it done, when there is no one else could make it, he is the man. The kind who make complicated things much easier. The kind who make others think that nothing is impossible. The one who helps to solve problem faster. The one that many especially in our family, seek for his hand. You know what I meant? No?? Okay, go google this. Already? Got it? Yes, that's what I meant. Abah is our MacGyver. I simply have no worry whenever he is with me. He always have his way. He always make things work. He always impress others. Not that Abah is a perfect man on earth, tapi ada keistimewaannya. Itu ialah anugerah Allah kepada Abah. Oh Wan yang panggil Abah MacGyver tau!
Now Alma, since you were a baby, Wan and I have always caught you doing stuff that a baby should not be doing. As a grandmother of 20 grandkids, Wan indeed has years of experience observing each and every little ones, and simply could have predict her grandkid's behavior. So, same goes to you. Wan observes your moves, your behaviors, just everything. and you tahu tak apa Wan cakap tentang you? Well after intimately saving and spending her days and weeks with you, (yes, kita selalu balik kmapung Wan - seronok tau!), Wan beritahu mother yang you ni suka buat kerja godeh sana, godeh sini, screw sana, unscrew sini, adjust sana, modify sini, just like Abah when he was a tot.
And today, I too have come to a conclusion that memang you ni ada sikit ikut perangai Abah. I really don't mind darling, but look, you are a girl, Alma. Yes, I want you to be tough and rough, not the very girlie kind, I hope, but darling, kalau dah sampai ke tahap you gegarkan katil (by hopping, jumping, pillow fighting and barney fighting), sampai katil bergerak tho' I already have locked its wheels! The next thing - you gathered all strength to twist the crossbars, sedaya upaya, sekuat kudrat you, berjaya juga tanggalkan palang palang tu, eeishhhh... I was completely speechless. Slowly but surely, you removed the crossbars, one by one.. but as you knew that it was supposed to be fixed, thus you tried to tack them altogether, in anyways. Yes, you tried very hard. You stood up, sat down, you lied down for a while as you felt tired, but you proceeded into work soon after that.
How efficient! :)
By the time you tried to tack the bars altogether, to insert each components to its place, unexpectedly the whole
piece of the drop side fell on the floor!! Thanks God for your fingers weren't trapped between the pieces. fuuhhhh.....!! Had only the bottom half of the crossbar, made all your effort - to get out of the crib, much easier kan! hehehe... Just in less than a minute, you got yourself out of the crib and happily teased me and Tok' Mak. grrr!! so action eh dapat keluar dari katil sendiri, with your mata sepet, big teeth and hidung pesek you, your face were glowing happily, merrily! hahahahhaha
Well we both simply couldn't bothered to stop you because you're in the phase of exploring and learning. As long as I'm there, by your side, observing you and protecting you, you are free to explore and learn things surrounding. It's your freedom, baby! Now, look at you doing the things that makes me go hmmmm....
Enjoy, darling Alma!
* Thanks for the effort helping me to fix the crib! :)
