I always knew that I want to be a mom..but being a stay at home mom? The truth is it's never been on top of my priority until I give birth to Sachiko. Who would have guessed that I could change my mind in a zap just because I feel in love with her. But it's not until 2 years after that, when I have her little brother then I become a stay at home mom.
Being a stay at home mom is not always easy. Specially when you don't have a maid or nanny around. You have to learn how to manage your time to do house chores while teaching and playing with your children. And trust me it's never easy. Sometimes you're able to wake up earlier than your kids yet sometimes they decided to wake up shortly after you get up the bed. Not to mention the mess and the constant cleaning up and soothing and chasing. I won't lie, I often miss having chit chat with the grown ups, having a long lunch during the day and even the deadlines HA! Weird isn't it? Yet I have made my decisions and for me it's something that I should be thankful of. Well hey, not all woman are lucky enough to be a stay at home mom right?
On the other side being a stay at home mom means you can watch your babies grow. Not to mention all the hugs and wet kisses during the day and night and therefore I feel grateful. It's hard sometimes but then my babies never asked for me to be a perfect mom. They just want me to be there to watch over them and love them unconditionally. There's still so many days ahead of us and I will embrace all the messiness, stickiness and gooeyness with all my heart and soul. After all it'll gets better :)
