Missed out from the picture is my great grandma, which makes her Mea's great-great grandma. If only she's here, it'll be our 5 Generation - the ladies in the house which is also, all of us are the eldest child in the family still alive and going strong.. I was told by Momma that Tok Nab (d G-G Grandma) is now almost 90 years old. But she's still making her own minyak urut and jalan2 jual.. Buang boring kali..! Alhamdulillah, she'll still strong and alive! Dhamea now have a new pet-name for me - Hyena Mommy. Huh! she got it after watching The Lion King and Nat.Geographic. Before this she called me Tiger Mommy - and daddy oso agrees to that nick! Now she changed it to Hyena - because I laugh like them and fierce too??? She even starts telling everybody that she met "tu Hyena Mommy Mea..." and her words most of the time are hard to understand by others except for her Hyena Mommy..eheheheheh...
