Ayra's 1st LC Ihtifal

Ayra had her first Ihtifal (performance) this year.

the 5 little caliph schools around the area gathered in Setia City Convention Centre
for the year end Ihtifal. 

Of course we were excited to see our first bundle of joy performing!

It is the moment that we have been anticipating for, for the last one month.

She had been practicing on her verses and scripts on daily basis.

We even rehearsed with her just to make sure she got it right.

The event started with all the children reciting their hafazan of surah-surah lazim.

reciting surah-surah lazim with the rest.

Then it was the turn for her school's group performance.

They played a video montage of the school's activities throughout 2015. 

At the end of the video, they showed a video of Ayra holding a microphone and teaching her friends the song You Are My Sunshine. and they were singing together happily.

The teacher even displayed Ayra's name and her age of 4. 

it was soooo sweet.

I had tears running down. 

It was so touching. and I was overwhelmed with happiness.

My baby girl is so big now.

Next came their performance on the stage.

It was the school's performance consisting of children aged 4 to 6. 

so, Ayra was one of them. 

She was the flower, and they were performing songs on Allah's creation through the verses in Quran.

Then after the group performance, it was turn for her spotlight 

moment that she has been practicing for.

the teacher invited her to the stage.

she became the introducer for the next performance.

"Assalammualaikum. My name is Ayra. i am from Tadika I***** C****. The next perfomance is from Tadika Kembara Khalifah, performing In The Name of Allah. Bismillah."

awwwww my... she was so confident and so smooth!

I am so ovelwhelmed with feelings.

there she was. my baby girl.  

looking all confident, and full of joy being on stage.

she sure loved the attention!

 

I am a proud mommy.
