Two day stress

I just spent two stressful days at home. Frequent calls from work doesn't do justice that I am on child-care leave. Yup, dawter T has been nursing a high grade fever since Monday night.

Pre and I were not able to sleep well as we have to constantly check dawter T's temperature as we are both scared that if it reaches 40+ (which it did!), she might go into convulsion or something.

With constant prayer, dawter T (now with rashes on her body --- I hope it's just bungang araw) is now ok. We're still wary, of course.

Thank you, Lord! Hopefully, the worst is over!

Work was work. Early this morning, I got a call from the ISP of one of our clients that he managed to open the ports that we need to connect Lotus Notes to the outside world. Mid morning, Starlight called and bugged me about it. Told him, we're still working on it and that I am on leave. I will do it first thing tomorrow. Na-dah! He doesn't want lah! He wants it done by today! So, two of my officemates and I troubleshoot. The two of them on-site. Me, remotely connecting while dawter T is sleeping. Managed to get it done. But, not without heartaches. Hmph! (Still seething over it and will probably get it over it after I talked it over with Pre.)

Another thing to be thankful for!

Looking forward to destress tomorrow.

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!

Me! Me! Me!

Last night, I created an LO using the picture below when Bebi A happened to see it. She touched it and said "Me?!" "No, it's me!" I told her. It was really me when I was Bebi A's age. The similarities will not be able to deny that Bebi A is my daughter hahaha I just hope that my bubbly and sunny bebi will not get the mom's sumpong(s). This is one of the few baby pics that I have. I used to have 3 baby albums but one of the worst floods that hit Pinas also took away my memories. Now, this is Bebi A.

Creativity

Dawter T called me up and told me that Bebi A tore her art and made a monster out of the girl in the picture. I know that it's not being mean. Bebi A doesn't have a mean bone in her body. She just don't understand. I talked to Bebi A. Asked her to kiss and make up with her Ate, She did. Ate A told me that she went up to Dawter T and kissed her, then asked "Is this better, Ate?" Awwww... Dawter T's "smashed" art was one of her best. I was really impresed. If only I have taken a picture of it this morning. It was really beautiful. It was a portrait of a girl, by the way. I hope that Dawter T can still replicate it. I know that not all kids are alike. And, my daughters have their own endearing qualities. One's art is different from the other. Dawter T has the potential (not because I'm her mom, ok ok, it maybe because I'm her mom hahaha) and Bebi A's, well, let's just say abstract. Hehe.
