My Dearest brother Joe

It both confused our minds to be thinking as to why the package u sent to me 2 months ago went missing.. it should have reached me ages ago but it didnt. It was on tuesday while i was in sapanca that i received a phone call from halim (my bro in law) who went to the package office to collect a package from USA for his wife who saw the package u sent. The noticed the post office had sent must have been lost somewhere..Thanks to halim, he even collected ur package on our behalf from that office on thursday (packages from overseas r sent to an office in the european side of istanbul. Notices would be sent to the adressee) . I was still at the summer house in sapanca when i heard the news. It is monday..nope..tuesday now..

Ever since thursday, my mind was only thinking of going back home...going back to istanbul..to wait for monday was a great effort indeed.. Yet..waiting was what i had to do..we agreed to return to istanbul on monday night...

u cannot imagine my happiness when i saw that one box...that one package..i was shocked. It was quite a big box.I was right..the weight was not light either. The content..the posting cost..it must have cost u hundreds!!!!

After i threw the kids into bed, with a nervous heart..totally excited, i used the knife to cut the rope....my beloved packs maggie (instant noodle) of many different flavours, my beloved asams (mo far ko, halia etc), spices (perencah sup,serbuk kari, serbuk kunyit), instant bubur nasi (rice porridge) of several flavours....malay Cds.. my requested Marry Poppins, etc etc..n on top of that; clothing for halil n the kids!!..i love the tudung very much..

HUgs HUgs HUGs a very Big big Hugs

u r totally nuts to be wasting ur money like this..And u cant imagine much this means to me.. how happy u have made me..but u make me feel so guilty now..my request for mary poppins Cd n asam turned out to be costing u hundreds....u know i can never repay ur kindness...so halalkan la yea apa apa yg orang dah pekena hang heheheeh buat apa kalau ada abang kalau bukan utk dipekena kan?? :0)

I would like to snap the photos of what u sent but halil's phone is dead..so no picture snapping for me for now.. i just hope the phone will be able to get fixed..if not.. :0( can u imagine halil now using my handphone?Remember my handphone in one of my entries? halil talking on a phone with childish cartoon characters ? heheh

Anyway, We really thank u for the package..halil loves the t-shirt.. i bet hatice n baddin will love theirs as well. Hatice will be extremely happy in the morning after she discovers that her favourite maggie is here....

To be away from malaysia..to crave for things like u can never imagine is difficult enough..and to have someone sending some of the things u crave for...is a blessing indeed..i am blessed to have a brother like u..May Allah repay ur kindness at times u least expected.

Thank You dear brother.

It is late..1.30 am.. time to sleep..my dearest blogging friends, i know u expected pictures from Sapanca..i am afraid they will have to wait for a little longer.. half of the photos r in halil's hp..the other half needs to be developed.....too many things to do tomorrow.. will try to visit ur blogs at the earliest opportunity..i have missed u all a lot...but i promise the next entry will be on sapanca...*yawn* ..dah pekena perencah asam laksa maggie.. la ni masa utk tidoq..blogging kena tunggu esok..nak pengsannnnn dah...

but this one entry i have to write tonite....i just have to tell u what a special brother i have here.. he is not the type to show his affection n love openly..i dont think he know how.. ..but when he does something like this....i cant help but to think that he loves me after all....when halil saw the things he sent, halil's only comment was..*ur brother must have missed u*... Do U? (hehehehe am i fishing for open affection here dear brother?)

Good nite world...n yup! simah's back ...for now...
