No. 2 Turns 3

Image
In a few days' time, my younger girl will be turning 3.  No more a baby and she insists on that too.  We threw her a Dora themed party last weekend and it was just so heart-warming to see her little face light up when she saw the balloons, streamers and banners we put up for that day.  "Thank you, Mommy!" with her hands clasped - that made it all worthwhile for me.  In our family, it has somewhat become a tradition for the birthday girl to wake up to some sort of decoration in our house.  Nothing expensive nor fancy; it is the thought and effort that counts.  The looks on their faces:  Priceless. It really doesn't take much to make me happy as far as my kids are concerned.  Their emotions are worn on their sleeves and I just work at giving them a balanced life; as much as I know what 'balanced' means.  She has blossomed into a little being with a very big heart coupled with a quick tongue.  Very small and slim in stature.  Super ...

#1 turns 6 this month

With a blink of an eye, #1 will turn 6 this month.... wow!  Can't believe how fast these 6 yrs have passed - some days of looking after her since she was a newborn & toddler seemed endless and long yet it has all gone almost too quickly.   She has blossomed into a beautiful young girl; always polite, pleasant, caring, thoughtful, matured for her age... all I had wanted and more in a child I call my own.   Yesterday, she dropped her first tooth; bottom right front tooth - had to do it at the dentist and she was a real trooper.  Though scared, she took a deep breath and left it all to the Dr Yang.  I was soooo proud of her.  Of course I have played Tooth Fairy last night.  Left a S$1 gold coin, a note saying "You were so brave!" and her little tooth under the pillow.  The look on her face was priceless when she found it.  Well, half of her thinks it was me and the other half thinks there really is a Tooth Fairy.  I'l...

When Should We/I Adopt?

For those of you who are wondering this, well, there really isn't a perfect time... sorry to disappoint you. There are, however, some questions you might want to ask yourselves to derive when will be YOUR best time to adopt: 1)  When do you want your child/children to be when you turn 50?  (Well, either one of you; just benchmark against which of you will get there first.) 2)  Is your marriage currently child-friendly/child-safe? That is, is your relationship stable?  Dig deep into your hearts and be totally honest.  If it is not, do work at sorting out your issues because with a baby/child thrown into your family equation it will surely NOT help.  Imagine having all these issues to sort out ON TOP OF being exhausted, ill-adjusted to your new family, etc.... 3)  What kind of support do you have around you to help you?  Yes, spouses are included... 4)  Are your jobs secured in order to provide for the child?  No, you don't...
