My Version of a Good Day

Though it’s only 7.45pm, I would say so far today is what I would call a ‘good day’.

Though we started the day a little late, I liked how all 4 of us managed to go out to get breakfast together. Tabao-ed prata from casuarina 😋

Craving for nice prata settled. Then also had teh terik which I had been weirdly craving too... so that’s settled too... 😬

All things like cleaning and sweeping etc fell into place right before a nice home-cooked lunch by the hubs! Hor fan..... something different from our (recent) usual.

So that was nice.... 

Then I even had time to take a short nap which was just right before having to get ready for appt.

Even managed to wash Rou’s clothes before bathing and had 15mins to spare. I tried to latch her but she didn’t want to.

Which turned out just nice cos by the time i settled the clothes and prepared some stuff, time was up to leave. 👍🏼

What I feel comforted is knowing that the hubs is home to watch over the kids instead of just mummy alone.

I know this is not a privilege most normal job 8-5pm parents have. But hubs n I work odd hours. So we shldnt always compare ourselves to regular job parents right?

It’s also why I feel so torn about the thought that soon, the day will come when both wp n myself needs to be in office/work at the same time and baby rou is left with mummy alone.

1stly that woman is 4years older than when we had don. She’s almost 70! And she still thinks she’s wonderwoman.

She’ll try to cook, clean and take care of baby when we’re gone!

So that in itself creates more stress in me than  anything!

Like u know something IS gonna happen yet you don’t do anything to stop it. It felt that way with don and the feeling is worse this time round with rou..

Saw a video the other day about mothers having to return back to work after maternity leave. That it’s a new phase of life for the family too.... and not to get stressed over it.......

Haizz.... maybe those ppl didn’t have a Super stubborn Mother!

Things will work themselves out I know.... n I try not to think too much and that far ahead.....

So for now, I’ll just be happy and feel blessed about what a great day today has been! Thank God!!! Alhamdulilah for an awesome Sunday!
