The Struggle Is Real

Before having kids, I thought a stay-at-home Mom is such an easy job. You just stay at home, do whatever you want, whenever you need to, take care of the kids, and sleep late. Man, I was wrong ... Totally wrong. You can stay at home, but you also have lots of things to do. My laundry takes days to be finished, I constantly cleaning and wiping until I don't care because I'm too exhausted to clean and prefer spending time with my girls. I run out of ideas what to make for dinner, sometimes I forgot to buy this and that even I already typed it down on my grocery lists. Grocery shopping is just like another test on how I feel God really teaches me how to be patient. Skye is 3.5 years old, and let me tell you, she's nothing like it ... She's more like a teenager. She's one strong minded child, she's very persistent and she's very good in negotiating (just like her Dad). Sometimes I lost words with her, she really tests my patience and honestly, I lost it here and there. But ... If you asked me if I would have the power to change it, I wouldn't. They are my everything, I'd take it as hard as it is and as it will be and I feel very blessed that I can be their 24/7 guardian. They always need their Momma and Momma's love is the best unconditional love, isn't it? (Okay, gotta give the Dads all the credits as well). It is as hard as it seems to be, but it's the most rewarding job I've ever had and I wouldn't changed a thing. I can say that I LOVE my life!

I love you, Skye and Summer ... And I love you endlessly, Kenji for letting me do what I do and support me all the way through thick and thin ...!
