what do we do all day

it's too hot to wear clothes in singapore, mummy. this is not america.

painting with water on the chalkboard. alright, i confess. it's a ploy to get them to clean up the chalk mess

jerald's school ends half an hour before jerome's so it's usually time at the playground next to his school followed by a little snack on the bench outside jerome's school
pardon the lousy photography skills. she looks cuter than this. little one waiting patiently in the kitchen while i whip up a one dish meal for lunch. she prefers to be in the warm kitchen than in the cool room by herself. so the little dear keeps me company - cooing in her rocker

friends have asked if i'm bored staying home with the kids. hmm, gd question. not yet, i usually reply. when u get bored, i'll just go back to work. gd answer?

there are tempting times no doubt, when the kids all want a bit of me, all at the same time or when discipline needs to be carried out or feeding *yikes! the worst bit of my job as stay at home mum*. the temptation is usually diminished by some great act from the kids.

jerome : (settles in my lap with a book)can u read me a bedtime story before i sleep?

jerald : can u hold my hand? (must hold hands before he sleeps)

adele : (waking up from a nap) daze turns into a smile when she registers my face, little fingers wrapped around mine.

sigh, i think i'll just stay home a little while longer...
