Life with children : How it’s been so far
Now that I have two kids and am raising them fulltime, I can say I get this one question a lot from people :
‘How has it been so far? ‘ (or in other words, ‘How are your coping?’, ‘Don’t you get stressed out?’)
…
I’ve shared quite a bit in the past on the ups and downs of life with kids, like the time when :
I wondered if I could survive managing my life with kids (I was pregnant with my no. 2 at the time)
I shared why I never look down on my decision to raise my own children fulltime (Anya, my first born, was 19 months at the time)
I wondered if I could love two children equally
I shared how my two kids’ different temperaments affect my ‘going out and about with kids’ activities
I wrote about the reality of having two kids
I shared my tough moments with the kids, and how every child will go through such periods as part of their ‘growing up’ phase
I compared how things were when I had only one and after I had my second one
I wrote about why I strongly feel we parents have very limited time with our children and why I feel our time is NOW
…
If anyone were to ask whether I enjoy my motherhood days, my answer will still be the same as the one I gave before :
I love what I do and despite the challenges and tough situations a fulltime mother faces each day, I still feel it’s such an honour and privilege to be entrusted by God with these little ones. And I’ll strive to continually learn to be a better Mom each day, the kind of Mom God wants me to be.

Hehe … yet to imagine life with 3 kids 🙂 Hmm, no plans for a 3rd kid for now, but if God’s really willing, then I guess He’ll give us one more despite our plans for having ‘just two’ ?
Ngebayangin ada baby lagi agak2 syerreemm for now ..hehe
