As the professional had suggested, everyone was expecting the stork for the newly-weds to arrive only in August. So it was a bolt in the blue, when love intervened our convo that evening with an exclamation that went like, "Dear! Linda's water bag has burst!". I remember the sea of excitement that engulfed my body upon hearing the news, but it got deterred midway when the term 'premature' started flooding my unconscious thought, mere minutes after. Feeling both eager and ill at ease altogether, love and I waited with bated breath at home. Everybody with hopes pinned, that god would never leave both mother and child's side throughout the battle that toggled between life and death. And then, alas! The moment came. On 16 July 2009 at 0928hrs, joining the league of cuzzins Fathullah Raiyan, Ariessa Marsisqa and Fathiah Asyura, a 2.38kg princess named Nur Aaliyah Wardina was safely delivered into this world. And mom? Syukur alhamdulillah, the both of them are as fit as a fiddle! :D Although, being a non full-term baby has exposed baby Aaliyah to quite a fair trail of setbacks, still, I'm glad that her progress has been going in a positive direction, alhamdulillah! She has proven herself to be a strong and brave lil' fighter and I'm sure she'll ride over these adversities in no time, right mommy Lynda? ;) I think her name alone exudes much charm and elegance. I've yet to set my eyes on her cuteface but I know she'll be just as captivating as the graceful ring of her name. Shall see you real soon okie, baby Aaliyah? Can't wait to kiss and smell you! hee. Oh, and i'll post her pictures as soon as I get to snap them, alrite. Lots and lots and lotsa baby dust everywhere la! I loike! hehe. Makes me wonder how love and mine would look like?hmm. *daydreaming* Wait 5-6 years more to see,okie? Insya'allah, Amin. n_n
