Believe In Herself

HEART OF A MOTHER

I’m back to work today. I wasn’t feeling remorseful; instead I was already mentally prepared. Deep in my heart I know what I am doing is for the best for the family and the best in me. This is the path that I choose with no regrets. He sent me to work and we had Macdonald breakfast before heading to the office. It wasn't a bad start after all!

Being a SAHM for 16 weeks was truly great. I was able to witness how my kids grow and best of all the bonding we shared. Never mind that I had to run round the house and wake up early in the morning. At the end of the day, I had my kids with me and I handled them on my own. I’m thankful to the support that was given to me. I’m grateful to my and his family for the tremendous support and sacrifices. I appreciate my partner assistance despite the lack of sleep and tiredness from work. Though he needs to run errands, he would gladly and use his initiative to bring the 2 elder kids along. Being off from work, as I promised myself, I managed to spend more time with my second born which I failed to do so while I was pregnant with the twins. I introduced to him lots of places and able to do readings together which he loves. He’s always the first one to be awake and the first to be bathed. Once he’s awake he will automatically head to the toilet and after removing his clothes, he will put them in the laundry basket. He is still on diapers yet he will tell us if he urine or pass motion. He has picked up some words and I’m amused by his talks. I managed to see the progress of my first born when she attended nursery this year. I make full use of this opportunity to toilet trained her and glad she only wore diaper at night. She already started toilet training last year but only this year I move a step further by teaching her to wash up herself after passing urine and not wearing one when taking afternoon nap. I will still be washing up her after passing motion and now she will go straight to the toilet herself and sat on the bowl to do the necessary. As for the twins, I am extremely happy with their development. They are growing up so well and I can’t wait for them to mix and play with their sister and brother!
