Close and Bonded : Inspirational Story as a Parent

 

Last weekend Tariq competed in Malaysia Open International TKD Championship.

He won 2 Gold Medals and 2 Championship Belts, MashaAllah TabarakAllah!!🥰🥰

One Gold for Sparring and the other Gold is for Power Breaking Punch.

I am so so proud of him, alhamdulillah!!

But what makes this win super special was because I wasn't there with him as his 'pompom squad', neither was his dad.

I had a not-to-be-missed 3-day event and his dad was on call that weekend and couldn't get a replacement.

So we tried to persuade Tariq not to compete but he insisted that he can do it without us by his side.

.. Okay Tariq, if you  insist on competing, Ibu (my sister) will be there with you.. together with Abang Hazim, Nazeer, Kakak White Rose and Ateh inshaAllah..., I told him

... Okay Mama.. Ibu is my mother too..., said Tariq with a smile..

SubhanAllah..

My heart melted when Tariq said that..

This was what my father has always reminded me, my brother and my sister.

To keep our children close and bonded so they feel like one big happy family. To always stay in touch. To always visit one another. To care and love our siblings children as our own. So the temporary absent of a parent can be substituted by any one of us , alhamdulillah.

So Tariq marched into the Stadium that day with his new lineup of pompom squad and did so well, alhamdulillah!!

And that weekend, I learn that my little kungfu Panda is not so little anymore, alhamdulillah.

He doesn't need his mummy by his side all the time to cheer for him.

He is really growing up. And slowly but surely becoming a brave young man, inshaAllah alhamdulillah..
