Happy Birthday, my sweethearts

Time flies, before I knew it they are already 2 years old. How have I survived the past two years!? While people have always tell me it will be easier to take care of them as time goes by, I find that to be extremely untrue. Haha. The easiest time for me would be when they were just newborns. Sure, the 3 hourly nightfeeds and all, but because I did not put them through sleep training, I am still waking up in the middle of the night to feed them now. -________-!!

 Also, since now they can express what they want and is starting to understand the world around them, I have to bargain with them and explain copious times to get the message across! LOL, just the other day my daughter just told her daddy this excuse "kate kate scared thunder, papa bao bao" because she didn't want to walk but wants to be carried.

Although there are times that I really want to 'vomit blood', screaming bloody murder when they misbehave, but there's also times when they surprise you. Just the other day, when both of them were eating some biscuits and Emma tried to pick up a toy, Kate turn to Emma and told her "eat biscuit hand ditty (dirty) no touch toy toy!". Secretly I am pleased, FINALLY they understand!

Sometimes I wonder what life would be without them, how carefree I will be. I could wake up any time, do my work as I wish, and go anywhere without a worry. Now I am mostly stuck at home without an income, doing housework and cleaning after them, entertaining them when my eyes can barely open, but I am happy. To see them grow up, I wouldn't trade my life now for anything else. Because I know they will eventually grow up and I wouldn't want to miss any part of their milestones right now.

So for fellow SAHMs, hang on! We are all doing a great job even though some days it just feels like we are not appreciated, but trust me, your kid(s) love you.


To my twins Emma and Kate, mommy love you. Happy Birthday my babies.
