Porridge's fault!

Dear was feeling a bit under the weather last week. Poor him... Luckily, the barley which I boiled worked well for him. Anyway, last Friday, I cooked porridge for him to bring to work for lunch. As usual, I got up at 5am to cook. That day, something UNUSUAL happened. My kids, BOTH of them, woke up at 6.30am, even earlier than dear! Of course I questioned why they were up that early. I could have taken a nap after that if they were still in bed! Apparently, it was my fault. Both of them claimed that they smelled my porridge, felt hungry and decided that it was time to wake up. Haha. They love the porridge so much that they had it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I didn't even have to offer other food! They just kept asking for more!

That night, right after I tucked them into bed, Nana gave me a GENTLE reminder! "Mama, tomorrow don't cook porridge ok? If not, I will wake up early!"

Haha! They obviously blame me!

Busy summer!

Busy busy busy! The past 2 months were full of activities. Kids started their summer holidays and we were off to 2 different road trips, separated by a 2 weeks break. That was almost a month away from home. Shagged! BUT fun! No chance for such long road trips once we are back in Singapore. Anyway, we managed to visit all the attractions that we had in mind.

Well, fun time is almost over and it's about time to go back to reality where I'll be part of a workforce. Back to square one! Juggling my job with the endless housework and growing kids! Wish me luck!

P.S. We are already in a counting down mode! 75 days to go!
