Tiring but satisfying..

I always feel a little embarrassed to say whenever people ask me how's life at home because I wish I can burst out excitedly and tell them," Awesome!!" (without them getting a tinge of jealousy). I don't wish to rub any salt if I can help it but seriously, I am enjoying myself-doing the things I love and yet having space to do whatever I want, whenever I want.

Here's my rough schedule for most of the days

630am: Eyes open as CT leaves for work early and I usually get woken up by him since I am a light sleeper

Lie in bed for a while more, reading my handphone stuff- check Facebook and Instagram.

7am: Get out of bed officially

715am: Do my quiet time

730am - greet Caleb and talk to him as he takes his milk.Danielle would still be in bed or maybe just woke up.

About 8am- quiet time with the children by sharing bible stories.

Then, I would double check that they finished their homework and see if any needs revising.

830am- Children have their breakfast

9am- Bathe. Then play

940am- Pray with children before they goes off to school

950am - School bus arrives, children goes off to school

10am- Do internet surfing

11am- Plan for what to cook for family. If I have an idea, I would spend my time in kitchen getting the ingredients ready. If no inspiration, I would just watch TV and have lunch in front. Catch US and Australia shows- Graceland, Masterchef, Top Chef

I would usually watch for about 2 hours. Then I would do some reading or playing of games in my ipad.

I would usually use this space to either cook something or do something silly like this!

The children comes home at 330pm. I would spend time with them playing or doing something together before they go off to play on their own.

We did some bookmarks 2 days ago and now. I started on my 1000 pieces jigsaw puzzle project.

Yesterday, I brought them to the rooftop garden as I did some reading while they were cycling and playing

Spending time with them has been tiring but very fulfilling as I get to learn a lot from them and about them each day. It has been a joy to stay at home and hopefully, I can inspire them and train them up to what God wants them to be.

Being at home and being with my children is definitely priceless! I am glad I made this decision and pray that God will take care of all my household needs and bless my family!

Went to the nearby wet market with Danielle
