Everyday Is A New Beginning

New Year for this blog is almost a month after.  Anyway, Chinese New Year is around the corner.  So, it's still "New Year"...  But then, whatever day it is or month, I always feel that everyday is a chance for a new beginning.

2012 held lots of wonderful memories, and sad ones as well.  Last year held a different role for me.  Mom, Wife, Homemaker, Employee in one roof.  I always felt and probably will always feel that coming to Melbourne is a huge blessing for me and my family.

The girls are settling quite well even without Ate A at their side.  I think this is the greatest blessing that I get to receive.  To take care of my daughters first hand.  I see them thriving, though still very shy.  I guess it's in the genes.  Their appetite is so good that hubby and I sometimes have to ask them to stop eating.  LOL.  Bebi A had few asthma episodes even during winter.  Ate is growing up, becoming a lady in every way.

Pre is happy at work.  Happy husband is a happy wife.  Not much squabs.  That's all I ask each day that we live in harmony.  LOL.

I had to leave work and start a new one.  It was sad.  But, a joyous beginning as well.  Gone are my stressful days.  I no longer had to wake feeling scared.  I just couldn't wake up early nowadays hehehe...  My last job drained me emotionally.  My new job, though the same kind of work, has more impact physically because I had to wake up at 5AM to prepare my daughters' lunch boxes, breakfast, etc.  Then, had to leave the house by 630AM to catch the train and reach the office at 730AM so that I can go home at 430PM to pick up my girls at the after school care program before 6PM.  The first few weeks was like joining Amazing Race, catching one train after the other.

I believe that we will slowly settle down.  Sometimes I wished that it'll normalize soon.  But, I had to patiently wait for that time.  It will come.  Everyday is a New Beginning.

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.
