everyday i wake up thankful for being afforded the opportunity to stay home with the kids, even if it’s only for a few short months.

everyday i try to justify my staying home by thinking up of ways to enrich their lives, even if it’s simply sitting around and talking to them. yes, with the tv on in the background.

everyday i grapple with the dilemma of being a working mom versus being a stay-at-home mom, weighing out the pros and the cons, only to end the day with the question unresolved.

everyday i hope to discover a treasure map or a secret trust fund so that i don’t ever have to think of that root of all evil we can’t live without, ie. money!

everyday i wish for the days to not move so quickly by.

in the meantime, i’ll enjoy the little luxuries in my little life right now.

like a tall mug of milo with whipped cream at the neighbourhood prata joint in the middle of the day. my son’s happy mouth smudged with mini-oreo cookies. my daughter’s stringy saliva running down my hands.

coz these little things, they don’t come cheap.
