Didi is on flu syrup
Finally I got a good night sleep last night. Didi is now much better (no more *ha-ha-hatt chooo*) after taking the flu syrup. At least no more nose block and he could sleep better too. However he is still quite cranky when he is awake. Yesterday when I drove them back from Auntie Yong’s place, Didi wailed his lung out in the car until poor QQ had to cover her eyes from his shout piercing scream. Luckily Korkor just sit quietly in the car seat until we reached home.
What’s up with myself
I do quite a lot of thinking to myself these days and begin to wonder if I should start to go out to work again. I really cannot imagine if I have to be stuck with the boys especially when they start to walk. I am really afraid that I might go into depression if I have to face the madness with the kids, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week like that.
Or would it help if I lock myself in the room with my laptop upstairs so that the boys would not see me thus demand less attention? Can I really trust my maid to handle to kids all by herself?

I did have my free time last time, to go knitting or yam cha with friends, even just for a while. But my ex-maid is trustworthy. Kind of hard to stay at home all day long.
by the time u wanna join the work force, ur boys will be ready for kindy. then u think, not bad hor, can have some ME time alone in the morning when kids are in school. then u dont wanna work liao! hehe!
even if u trust yr maid.. do u think she can handle 3 kids alone ah ? dun worry la..probably u need to go out.yumcha abit..shopping abit.. or set working time alone in yr work room
going to work just to get away from the children is not a good reason to go back into the working world. maybe when they are slightly older, you can ask QQ’s old babysitter to jaga them for 1-2 hours while you have your ME time. locking urself in your room is a good idea too. i used to do that!
Don’t think u can trust the maid…..until now I’m not able to work although my kids are already both 4 n 6 yrs old coz I can’t trust anyone can take good care of them rather than myself. If financially stable, I think we would rather be a full time mum coz nothing is more important than our kids, right? However, I do understand how bored n pressure life can be being a FTM. So, do pampered urself sometimes……;)

Wei, pls don’t think like that……You know, it is a blessing of staying at home looking after your own kids ~ seeing them grow up, fighting, crying, sick, etc etc etc…..really it is a blessing…..sometimes, when you need a break, ask your maid or hubby to help out to babysit them, while you enjoying your face or body spa
As kids grow up fast, and soon, you will be left alone in the morning (the house suddenly feel so quiet) while they enjoying their school activities…..
To me it is a challenge to be a SAHM to take care the kids. So I always salute those SAHM highly. I agreed with Mamajo - it is a blessing of staying at home looking after your own kids ~ seeing them grow up, fighting, crying, sick, etc etc etc. Especially nowadays, not easy to find a good babysitter that you can trust. Like me a FT working mom, I have to juggle my time between work, kids, house, hubby and self. I always plan some time for hubby and my self after the kids have gone to bed. If not, I will go crazy.
