Yes, after almost six months of procrastinating, I have decided to heed Kelly's advice and REGISTER A BLOGGER ACCOUNT!!! Hahaha!! I had wanted to start a blog when I was pregnant with Kyle. He is almost five and a half months old now!!
Well, people do say time flies when you are having fun. With a wink of an eye, Kyle is almost half a year old! Although I do enjoy my new role as a full-time mum, I can attest that this role is definitely NOT a piece of cake. For those people out there who envy me and think that my job is "shiok", please do reconsider your stance. Staying at home does not mean that I do nothing and sleep at home the whole day.
Being a SAHM (Stay-At-Home Mum) means that I have to be on 24 hour stand-by, every day to care for my son. That means waking up at least 3 times a night for night feeds, carrying him in my arms for most part of my afternoon and attending to all his cries throughout the day. No weekends, no off days, no holidays. So please do not think that I am not working. I feel I am working harder than when I was teaching. Hahaha!! At least I had uninterrupted sleep then. Now, having a total of more than 4 hours of sleep a night is a luxury. And it very rarely happens.
But no matter how hard it is, I really love being a mother to Kyle and to have the opportunity to see him grow during the first year of his life is indeed a blessing. A heartfelt appreciation to my hubby Woon for his support so that I can embark on this wonderful journey. I will do my best to be a good mother, lov. ;)
