I was preparing the kids for their nursery this morning when out of sudden Kakak said,"Lambatnya nak balik". I know what she meant was "lambat lagi ke nak balik rumah".
I was like,"Hmmm?Kakak selalu cakap macam tu ke kat school?".
Then she replied,"Ha'ah".
What is that suppose to mean?
I know she is getting better and feels more comfortable now at school rather than when she was first sent there 5 months ago. Adik as well.
But I guess, there were times when she felt lonely and missing us,
her Umi and Abah perhaps, though surrounded by friends and teachers.

I hope she would be able to cope with it, my poor girl. It is just temporary, and besides, she seem to gain alot these days. The nursery has done a great job. They write, they colour, sing, read, play and they even perform solat together. That's the kind of things that I would want my kids to enjoy. Of course, the full responsibility is on us, but at least they got to learn from us when we are together and with friends and teacher when they are at school.

Hopefully Kakak and Adik will understand these. Umi and Abah loves you both very much and are working hard for the best in our lives.

This requires us to sacrifice and part from each other during the days. But, I promise, when Umi and Abah come back from work, we will play and cope up with each other like always, okay sayang? So don't be sad, just enjoy yourself and laugh a lot.

Anybody know the best way to naturally detox ourselves?

Read about this one detoxification product. Sounds good, it comes together with success stories of celebrities who have taken it. Among them is my favourite actress V*an1d4h and also my ex-schoolmate, Ke*in Z4hr1. Hmm...no wonder they are looking more radiant and healthy. Mr Hubby might want to try this product coz he's having some allergic and has being advised to do detox in order to cleanse the blood system.

I am more interested to try it the natural way. Found this article about apple detox, where we can only eat apple whenever we feel hungry throughout the day. For dinner,hovewer, we might have some healthy,additional dishes (like steamed and broccoli carrot)to go with the apple. Sound easy and interesting, but will I make it? How soon can I start?

Now, that's quite a question.

Let's see. Tomorrow's event :
Company's family day in the morning.
Friend's daughter's birthday party in the afternoon.
Brother's birthday party in the evening.

So, tomorrow is not a good day to start the detox process.

Maybe Sunday is good. Plus, I will be at home, so sudden feeling of tiredness as a result of the procees can be covered with a nap *wink*.

On the other hand, I might also change my mind and try the above product instead. God willing, I might become as glowing and beauty as V*an1d4h :)

Chatted with a WorkAtHomeMother(WAHM) friend, Maria today, and we were talking on how we can creatively multiplying our sources of income and at the same time spending money that we have in our hand wisely. For me, having multiple streams of income is a good idea, in order to survive current economic weather.
Like Maria, she is so into writing and has been contributing much of her writings to online magazines, other than her own blog . Other than that, she also does some translations and copy-writings.
Her English command is very good, so I suggested her to offer English-speaking coaching and English writing class. The potential customer could be those people who want to brush up their speaking as well as writing skills. English is widely used nowadays so it is important to be able to speak at least with proper (or right-sounded :))grammar, if not completely perfect. This whole speaking and writing thing need practices, so Maria can become your English-practice buddy.
I have always supported those who want to become a WAHM, and Maria has been sharing this idea with me since the first time we talked about this(that was 3-4 years ago). Now, she has made the move, and now a proud mother managing her family(a husband, two kids, lots of chores) and her writing jobs.
I know there are lot of other working mothers out there sharing the same dream:to stay at home, look after the family and at the same being able to earn some income. It can happen, InsyaAllah, with proper planning and lots of prayers, nothing is impossible.
Anyway, to those who want to improve their English skills, and seeking for help and advice, please don't be hesitate to contact her at mariaz.writing@gmail.com.
Good luck.
