| Me multi-tasking: Baking muffins (what else?) and working |
Ten years ago, if you were to tell me that I will be a stay-at-home mum running after three children in a suburb, I would slap you in the face. I was all for travelling and adventures, I was a cosmopolitan girl, I was a Web and Graphic Designer, and I would never spend time with children more than two hours a week, let alone entertaining children under 5 years old. I even told my parents that they should not dream of having grandchildren from me, as it would only be wishful thinking.
That was me then, but here I am now. For the past three years, I have left my career, and am now a proud full time Mum raising my little M.E.N. (acronym of my boys’ name: Malakai, Ethan, Niel). Yes, I did have the three boys within 2 years time, and yes, the youngest two are twins.
Still in the process of learning on the dos and don’ts of parenting- while striving to balance life between creating meaningful moments for my children and my various interests in life. I am not sure how I find time to blog, I suppose by neglecting a bit of housework now and then wouldn’t hurt anyone. :p
I am still in a motherhood survival mode, so until I am a thriving Mum, I am simply a wannabe blogger and a self-professed internet geek.
Here you can find my parenting journey of raising and running after my preschooler and twin toddlers, favorite recipes, pressure cooking, ministry work, and the little graphic design and personal photography projects I undertake now and then. Feel free to look around!
