One sweet day

My first daughter to me: "Ibu, you're so pretty. And you are a good mother. I love you sooo much" * followed by a kiss on my cheek*

My second daughter to me: " Ibu, you are my best friend" * with a big lovely smile*

Aaahh, those sweet words really make my day :D. Thank you girls. Ibu loves both of you too.

Weekend is coming

The week is almost over, and I'm looking forward to spend time with beloved hubby and my girls. Alhamdulillah, I could say that this week was a stress-free week. The girls were also less demanding.

My first eldest girl is a fussy eater and I was getting so concerned about her not eating much, I end-up baking pizza almost every morning for her. She loves it so much. But need to figure out a healthier option though. Should compare notes with other mothers, wonder if they are having the same issue as me.

I discovered the recipe to make 'Soft crust pizza' (click here for the recipe) from Dapur Tanpa Sempadan. Thanks to Mat Gebu for sharing the wonderful recipe. Its has now become a family favourite...I've made this pizza over and over again. The good thing about making your own pizza from scratch is that you can load it up sky-high with your favourite toppings!

Family v Career

I enjoy travelling, provided that that my family is around too to share the fun. I'm a bit reluctant if required to attend meeting or training abroad. That means I have to be away from my belowed, less time to spend with them :(. My priority in life is my family, not my career. Been struggling hard all these years to balance both.

Some may see that my reluctance will be a stumbling block for my career growth...I don't think so. Learning can be done in many ways and forms. Though of course, there's opportunities to establish international acquintances and expand my network during my travel.

Worry

Urggghh, I felt really worn out today, mentally and physically. My work is getting challenging day by day. Recently I noticed it started to effect my health as well. My mind is crowded with so many things of work, at the end of the day I'm left with little energy to switch into my role as wife and mother.

Trying to make concious effort day by day to take one step at a time. Not to say having worry in my life is not good at all. A little bit worry puts you in the state of alertness. But letting it ruled-over your life...not good. I can see some positive effects, small but still good.. at least I have started to find some personal space and time for myself.

Still a long way to go but I'm making efforts and progress :D

A new beginning

This is it. Finally I'm starting my own blog. hahaha I know... I know... other people have been into this for years. What's so great about it. But at least for me, its a small self achievement. Let see how long I can keep up. Hope I won't totally stop after a few posts :D.

Seize the day..
