A Homemaker’s Diary

I never realized that there are so many life small indulgences that I’ve been taking for granted..

Well, things like being able to go to the toilet to pee once I have the urge to do so, sipping the drinks while it’s still hot, taking my own sweet time savoring a good meal, lying on the sofa to watch movie while munching on junk food or simply to lie on the bed doing nothing, completely in solitude (without having to worry about a little fella who will cry his crocodile tears when he sees mama bersenang lenang..haha!)

I think having a child and raising him on your own makes you see things in different view, you will appreciate life (your time and energy!) and your spouse even more.

I also feel that you will never know how much your other half loves you, or how good and kind he could be until you have a child together. Like any other relationship, the true color of a person will only be revealed in time of sorrow, hardship and sickness.

This is the time when all the sweet talk won’t matter anymore. This is the time when action speaks louder than words. Tolerance and compromise is the key to a healthy marriage with child. Being able to put yourselves in your other half’s shoes and share the burdens (like taking turn to look after the son while she’s eating her dinner or helping to wash the dishes before you go to sleep at 12am) makes you grow stronger, together.

At the end of the day, after such a long and tiring day, I always tell myself, as I am falling asleep, I could go through this again, tomorrow and the day after because I know that I am not alone in this, and it’s so good to have a husband that loves me this much!
