Fast forward to 2016.....

I happened to stumbled upon my 'deserted' blog while browsing on my google account. How time flies. My last blog post was back in 2012, when my inlaws celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary. In a blink of an eye, we are now in the 1Q of 2016! Three years on, we are now blessed with two healthy, loving, full-of-energy and at times, cranky little boys, Ethan and Jacob.

Motherhood changed me. It changed my life. It made me a better person. It gives me a sense of belonging. It showers me with so much love and cuddles every single day. No doubt, there are days when I had too much on hand that I yearned for the freedom that I used to enjoy back when we were child-less, but I wouldn't change a thing. Everyday I am thanking God for his arrangement and gifts.

Being a Mum is the most challenging job so far, for me. Nothing prepared me for this role. I like to plan ahead. I don't like surprises. I like to prepare myself for things ahead. People like me think too much and can have multiple sleepless nights. But motherhood is different. Everyday is a new learning experience. Everyday something new is thrown my way and I will then think of ways to overcome it. My problem solving skills has improved a hell lot by being a mum! Not mentioning other things like time management, finishing a meal within a minute to the amazement of the others (Father in-law, for instance) at the dining table, having shower with one hand holding the baby, being in pyjamas all day and even forgetting to brush teeth on several occasions!

Mother's Day is just around the corner. I wish that every mum out there will have an unforgettable and enjoyable day with your family and loved ones.
