First Ramadhan with a toddler!
welcome Ramadhan!The holiest month for muslim all over the world. i have been very nervous of how fasting month is going to be this year. Last year's Ramadhan, dear daughter was only 3 mo. Not much hassle i remembered. but this year she's a "you cant put me down woman!!" 14 months old toddler. For sahur this morning she decided to wake up the same time i did. 3 am! Tried to put her back to sleep but when she started getting up, stood in the middle of the bed and started singing, i know its a lost battle. Well now, the father wouldnt wake up (dont get me started on him!). so had to take the toddler into the kitchen. She refuse to be put down and the trusted boba carrier was in the car (must remember to keep in the house throughout Ramadhan), so i had to cook (from scratch mind you) with one hand while another holding her. Broke an egg on the floor, and managed to whip up rice, a chicken dish, omelette, a mushroom dish. In 45 minutes. Im tough, im telling you. had my sahur, fed toddler at same time, changed her, only then she went back to sleep. tiring tiring dawn! Didnt even managed to recite the quran n actually scolded little girl a few times. sigh.kept my cool all the while only to lost it on the first day of Ramadhan. the month when you are required to be more patient n improve oneself. Ironic.Lets hope things go smoother tomorrow. As for now, im telling ramadhan with a toddler is indeed an adventure. gonna need all the help i could get!
