Merry X'mas peeps!

Merry, merry X'mas!


Someone mentioned that with kids, the festive season become a whole lot more fun. Couldn't agree more! Kate went with me & mom to Jurong Point & made us laughed when she screamed in excitement at the restaurant where we were having dinner. & she couldn't wait while I went into the shop to get her a gift, a christmas-y helium balloon. When she finally went to sleep at 10-ish, I thought she had turned in for the night. At 11-ish, she got up, looked at me & after awhile, she started to kick her legs in excitement. Its as though she knew it was the eve of Christmas & got up to celebrate with us! So darn cute.


I found myself thinking back to the past year, when I had to give up so much of the things that I thought defined who I was and all my freedom just to be a stay home mom. There were so many times I resented all of it, when I envied those who had maids or people to help them take care of baby while they go ahead & have a baby-free day by themselves. But as I marvelled at how much my little gal has grown, I realise that along with her, I have grown up too.. & I secretly take pride in the fact that I have been by her side all these while. =)


Pictures soon!
