Home Blessing

Today I conducted a home blessing in one of my cell member BK's new house. Though it was a small group, we however had a wonderful time fellowshipping with each other. The kids had a good time playing with her son in the front yard too.

We are very thankful that not only did we bless the house, BK's maid also accepted the Lord when Pastor asked her if she wish to.

Thank God for his presence and for blessing BK and her family incl her maid. The heaven rejoices even when one soul is saved. : )

Parenting Challenges

Parenting is really not easy esp so when I stay at home. With me staying at home since my resignation from a full time job in Aug 06, I find that I may be giving myself too much pressure to do too many things that I planned to do while not working. Esp now that things are settled compared to previously when I have maid problems, renovating house, moving house, pregnancy, delivering etc.

Not that I am a perfectionist..people always say dont sweat the small stuff but really is easier said than done esp. when coaching them in their work, piano. Emotions run high and my expectations of them too.

Both Naomi and Nathan are considered fast learners or advanced in their age according to "external" standards but still... Maybe becos I am still working on a part-time basis...so tend to expect them to learn faster so that I can get down to my job.

Many parents are also faced with this problem, juggling between work, family, children and many other things... For Christians readers out there.. we really need to ask God to grant us the strength from God to carry us through and give us patience, unconditional love and help us be good role models for our kids to follow and in turn on pass these good values to their kids.

Having said all these, staying at home grants me joy too , seeing them grow and experiencing their first milestones. I didnt regret my decision to stay at home and work part-time as I strongly believe in making a difference in their growing up years by being there in their formative years.

Everyday, is a new learning experience for me...it is not learnt thr' books, parenting articles or anywhere : )

Funny photos from sis' mobile

My sister just emailed me some photos taken using her mobile. Amazed at how interestingly the photos turned out to be using the picture frames esp for Nathan and Nicole..so cute with the judge wig.
