a 'gift' for a man

this entry might be something personal, thought to share it here on how i celebrate the very-very-important-man in my life.

last Saturday was my hubby's birthday, and as usual i make a planning to celebrate the day with the kids. i like surprises so much, and always plan to surprise him on the birthday. but since we have khaleeda, the surprise turned out to no-surprise because of big mouth she had!
always, " papa, mama dah beli kek utk papa tadi, tapi ssshhh surprise!", and vice versa the same thing happened on my birthday too. so, when they shouted "surprise!!!", what he/me did was to pretend as we know nothing and acted like really get shocked of the surprise. like last tuesday, i trained dada n ari to sing the birthday song and they did sing the song immediately right after their papa is home. papa just smiled and said,"blom lagi,blom lagi la..." but, this time i planned to throw the party one day earlier which is on Friday and kept it secret from kids until all the preparation done. it just a small party, the four of us, the cake and candles, the present, the song and balloons.

about the present, actually i came to the dead end to think about it. been 10 years together, there were variety of things given, and it was hard to find one that really suitable for 'man' actually. so, these years lately my gift to him was just 'an approval'. means, when he is eyeing on something valuable, i know some how he will return to me and ask for my approval (though the money is all belong to him). so, i just say 'yes' and 'it would be your birthday present too,ok? '.

i like to hand-made the card, so this is the card which the idea i get back from my old school days.
