School holidays is almost over. All the craziness at home, waking up late (me including) and playhouse disney almost all the time will be over. Tomorrow will be the start of a series of hectic days, waking up early to start breakfast, waking Amy to playschool, bathing, brushing teeth, making her eat her breakfast, then carrying Lisa, the baby into the car by myself and get Amy to school on time. And after that a series of grocery shopping, errands running, house cleaning, getting lunch ready and then it's time to pickup Amy from school. And do I have to start on the after lunch activity? Napping, bathing again, getting dinner started, and then start putting them to bed. Oh do I have to mention by this time the house will be a mess and I need to start my clean up pulak?

And I still wonder why people keep asking me " Apa aje aktiviti kau duduk kat rumah tu? " Isn't this enough activities already? I can't understand why being a SAHM is so underestimated. To me it's almost like a rat race, only the ones with patience will survive. And to be honest, sometimes I don't even consider myself finishing the line. I have an upmost respect for the full time mums, especially the ones who brought up their kids well, sometimes even with limited financial support, but still able to bring up good and respectable people in the community, giving their kids full and wholesome meals, good bringing up environment, good akhlak etc. I have this one quote for you good people

"Being a full-time mother is one of the highest paying jobs..... since the payment is pure love."

  I think this is true, and such a good morale boost especially for someone like me who needs it badly after a week of school holidaying.. :) So, to all SAHM out there, let's stop complaining and get moving ya? :D

Yours truly,

Nina
