working part time
I just started working part time and I am so busy that I can’t find the time to update my blog!!
I worked at the office from 9am to 1pm. Then it is a mad rush to my mom in law place to pick up the three kids. Once we reached home at about 2pm, it is nap time for the two younger ones and kumon time for Kyla. Kumon teaches discipline and thus there is one set of worksheet everyday for the kids. While she is doing the Kumon work, it is time for me to catch up on the housework, like mopping the floors, washing the toilets etc…
After the naps, it is playtime for the kids. If the weather is good, I will bring them to the playground or cycling. Else it is just play doh or painting. I realized that kids like messy games. The messier, the more enjoyable for them. On Wed and Fri afternoons are the actual Kumon lessons and I will lug all the three kids to the Hougang Central. Kyla will attend her class and the two younger ones will play at the nearby playground or the library. Dinner is another messy affair with Elkan insisting on feeding himself and half of the food always ended up on the floor instead of his stomach! Bath time will come after dinner and I use the time to clean up the mess left behind.
Some peace will return after dinner when I turned on the TV for them to watch while I have my own dinner.
Some people commented that I had lost weight and no wonder. I am on my feet all the time!! But I do enjoyed the extra time I have with the kids though they sometimes drive me mad!!!
No regrets!
