Asyraaf, at his ‘not so best’

You know sometimes when you notice a kid in a party or a gathering somewhere that steals the attention of everyone by doing something that nobody else would do...? Well in this case, that boy is none other than Zamir Asyraaf.

This incident, or rather accident actually, happened last Sunday at Auntie Mira and Uncle Em's open house in Kemensah...Ibu is still red in the face remembering that incident...haiyoh...!

We went there before heading to Acik Eina's house for a gathering and it turns out it Auntie Mira made a cake for Abg Emir and wanted to celebrate it with the kids around. So we stayed a while longer for Emir.

 

And I did notice Asyraaf inching towards the cake the minute it was put on the table by Mira. And Emir trying his hardest to prevent Asyraaf from tumbling into his cake. The nightmare didn't end there.

While everyone was getting ready, Emran was lighting the candles, and everyone started singing "Happy birthday to you...happy birthday to you... happy birth..." and poof...the candles was blown off by Asyraaf...without a hint of guilt! My eyes nearly went out of my eyesockets!

Now I know some say, "ala...budak2..." but imagine the feeling of the birthday boy when his birthday cake candles was blown off by another person! Kesian Emir...

And again, Emran had to light the candles... and believe it or not, Asyraaf did it again! This time, I went to Asyraaf, held him in my arms to prevent him from getting to the cake while waiting for the Happy birthday song to end. At the same time fighting Asyraaf's wail trying to blow off the candle from afar, and in the end, desperate times calls for desperate measures... I HAD TO COVER HIS MOUTH so that he couldn't blow off the candles, praying Emir will blow it before he did.

.The song has never seemed so long before.

So this entry is to convey Asyraaf's utmost apology to Uncle EM, Auntie Mira and Abg Emir for blowing off Abg Emir's birthday candles...TWICE.

* I am dreading the next birthday party we have to go to...maybe I'll bring a mask along to cover his mouth...:-D
