My Weekends

Weekends for me means being a fulltime mom.

My weekends 10 years ago were filled with with shopping spree, movies, lunch and dinners with friends and clubbing in the night till wee hours in the morning.

My weekends a years ago were spend with the Daddy or my best friend and some other close friends doing what I did 10 years ago except for the clubbing part.

Today my weekends will began like this:-

7.30a.m. - received morning call from Sara tugging my blanket

8.00a.m. - wash the kitchen sink and clean kitchen tops and table and boil drinking water for Sara

9.00a.m. - feed Sara again and tried putting her into the baby walker and got mu ch protest from her

10.00 a.m. - had breakfast with Mad Cat and wash Sara's bottles (for me to feed her water after her solid)

11.00 a.m. - put Sara for nap and boiled pumpkin and carrot for Sara's meal

12.00 p.m. - Sara woke up from her nap, fed her pumpkin and carrot puree

1.00 p.m.- Bathe Sara and put her in Daddy's care while I clean up after her

2.00 p.m. - Cooked spaghetti, nuggets and garlic bread for lunch and fed an impatient baby (Sara eats a bowl full for her solid but she still wants her milk after 2 hours)

3.30p.m. - Fed Sara again and then took a nap while Daddy naps with Sara. I was down with a running nose

5.00p.m. - Woke up from nap, found Daddy and Sara infront of the TV while Daddy was feeding Sara water (while waiting for the 'cow' to wake up) On sighting the 'cow', Sara immediately cried out for me. Fed a hungry baby. Then prepared brocolli, spinach, carrot and chicken porridge for Sara

6.30p.m. - Fed porridge to Sara. Answered some SMS

7.00p.m. - Bathe Sara. Decided to scrape the idea of cooking dinner and went to the Mines

9.00p.m. - Fed a hungry baby and put her to sleep. Daddy took the liberty to cook dinner for us. Daddy's speciality - Maggi mee with ayamas meatballs, fu chow fish ball, oyster mushrooms and black mushroom

That's me on a busy weekend.

So you can imagine how the days flies even for full time moms like me. Ask Sharon Goh and she will tell you she did this 24-7 with her 2 girls! Me, am blessed with a granny who cooks for the whole house and other adults around who help entertain the boys while I get my chores done.

The only TV I watch is Astro channel 63 with the boys or the 30-35 with grandma. If I can I try to make the boys watch my fav channel, 51, but that happens only at random these days.

And since Max is still "Cars" crazed, we are watching so much of that already, so I really try not to turn on the TV. It's such a cursed invention sometimes.

My dad-in-law passed away on September 1, 2007 to begin an eternal life with our Lord. He was a man with few words, gentle in his ways and had a generous heart to all. He had led a hard life but he was blessed with a loving and faithful wife and three wonderful sons. He had fought a long hard battle of cancer for years. And throughout his life, he kept his heart closed against the Lord. Due to persistent prayers of those who love him and the brotherly love of Sitiawan Methodist Church members, my dad-in-law accepted the Lord Jesus as his personal Saviour, follow thereafter by my mum-in-law. They were both baptized last month. His sickness took a bad turn last week and the sons were called to return home to see him for the last time. There were a few times that they thought my dad-in-law was not going to make it but he managed to pull through. It came to a point, my brother-in-law prayed for a confirmation from God the time which my dad-in-law will be called home. The day before my dad-...

I couldn’t sleep that night. As much as I wanted to but I was full of excitement that my heart could hardly contained. I looked around me and the room was almost in total darkness. The sun has yet to rise for the day. I turned around to turn off my alarm and lie on my back looking up the ceiling. Train of thoughts was running through my mind like a movie clip. As soon as I heard birds chirping, I turned to my side and got up from my bed to make my way to the bathroom. It was nice taking a warm shower before the start of the day. I slowly made my way to the kitchen to find my mother already awake and was up and about preparing breakfast. I was halfway enjoying my hot piping coffee when I received a call on my cell. “Hi, I am outside your house”. I was expecting him to come but didn’t expect him to be this early. I opened the front door and we made our way to my parents’ room. I sat in front of the mirror relaxing myself while he did his masterpiece of painting my face. After a whole 2 h...
