So thankful

Claire just sms me about my blog mia.….Yes, I have been really busy lately. We are left with only a maid. But fortunately, my sis-in-law came over last Sunday to help out. Thanks a lot. To think of it, I’m not a very multi-task person. I need tons of help huh?...

Here is my support list…..a very comprehensive support group….

Mom:- Cook the kids meal. and ferry them back from school.

Dad :- Keep an eye on the kids. He dotes on Sara a lot and plays with her when everyone is busy.

Helper 1 :- Take care of Sean and Shayne

Helper 2: Take care of Sara. Our helper number 2 will be in today.

Our next door tenant:- Bao Bao aunty. She’s a Pei Du Mama who has a 16 years old daughter. Her daughter is very bright and score very well for her “O” levels last year. Sara calls her Bao Bao ( baby) instead. Bao Bao aunty will be in our place every afternoon to talk and play with Sara.

Foon Che: My sis-in-law. She is so ever ready to come down once we call her. So thankful for her too.

With such a complete support list… I reckoned that I should not be tired. But I am indeed very tired and needed a holiday without the kids….. But it is not possible as Sara is very attached to me since Ivy left last Dec. These few days, she wakes up at 1am… plays till 5am before falling asleep again. *That left me with 3 hours of sleep every night*. Found the culprit…that is one of the reasons why I am so tired. Motherhood…. I’m a mother to three beautiful kids, although it is very challenging but worth every second of my time. I am still struggling to spend equal quality time with each of them.

To be honest, my work is very tough, so many deadlines to meet … coupled with very unreasonable clients who have problems selling their condo units or clients who cannot rent out their completed space… triple whammy..

Work aside… I am so thankful for all I have. I thank God for his blessings and grace.
