Assalamualaikum and a great day...
This time around... we have great news!!
It was the last week of school. I was busy with my proposal and my mind was a mess!!
As usual.. I fetch him from his class somewhat at about 1pm. He was smiling with a paper folded in his hands. After greeting his teachers, he ran to me and said "Mama, Alif dapat nombor 1!!".
I was like... yeah right... in disbelieve..
He kept on saying that he got 1st place.
So, I took the letter and read it.
Then, warm tears flowing grom my eyes... I just couldn't believe it. Never in my wildest dream after what we have gone through with Alif, I could imagine Alif can get the 1st place in his class! Not even once....
It was a tear of joy....
Happiness...
Satisfaction...
No one except for me and my closest friends knew how difficult juggling with my PHD as well as Alif's situation.
Between studying time.. rushing to pick him up and arrange for his therapies. .. that is not including Aimy and Ariq's needs. How sometime I felt almost giving up when everything planned didn't goes smoothly as it should.
Allah do work in His own mysterious ways. And .... it must be for the best.
I was the happiest when Alif took his prize for 1st place.. even cried heavily when he performed a dance for the ceremony. I just couldn't believe it was my son... he looks so grown-up and in my eyes.... already exceed my expectations.
Thank you Allah.
This reward wil never be wasted.
