Life In Selangor



When our family moved to Selangor, our children were already nine. Now they are all eleven of them. Selangor is one of the peaceful places in Malaysia. It is next to Kuala Lumpur. If I want to go to Kuala Lumpur, I can just take a bus from Rawang where I live. Actually it is easier to take a bus than drive a car where you have to find a place to park. The bus service in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur is very good. (But make sure you know where you want to go, so that you can ask anybody there to make sure you don't get lost !)
Well, I like living in Selangor, But if my husband ask me to go back to Sabah with him, I still don't mind to do that as long as I am with him and my wonderful family. Right now we are enjoying living in Selangor in our own way!

Starting a family

My husband is from Semporna Sabah whereas I am from Malacca. We met when we were studying in the United States. We got married in 1985. We finished our studies and started working in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah until 1995. Then we moved to Semporna, Sabah.At this time our children were already 5. Here we are very much closer to my husband's family . Our life there was quite good. Everything is fresh especially sea food such as lobster, crabs, prawns and fish. Even fruits, vegetables and other things are inexpensive. Hmm... I can't wait to go back to Semporna !

My Wonderful Family, how I love them.

When my husband Sarip and I first got married in 1985 we never thought that we would have quite a big family. I had three miscarriage between my first and second child. After that our family just grow. Now we have 6 boys and 5 girls, altogether eleven. Anyway we have never regret about having a big family. Our love for each one of our children will always be the same. In fact we feel that we love them more than ever because the more the merrier. Everyone of the children always think of their siblings. When one is not there each one of us will miss the missing one.
The reason I am writing this blog about my family is to let my children know that my husband and I always love them so much. There may be a time when we say something that might hurt them but we always meant it well for all of them. Having a large family is not easy but we always somehow manage by God's will.To our children Razak, Salahuddin, Firdaus, Rabiatul, Nadiatul, Hasan Al-Bashri, Syamsudin, Nur Abidah , Safarghani, Rahimah and Ruqqayyah, we love you all very much!
