a parent's journey...

wishful thinking

April 14, 2010

I haven’t read any books lately.  I miss those times when I can just in the room and read in silence, uninterrupted and get lost in another world.  These days, it’s not possible, unless I send hubby and the kids out for a whole day out which is even unlikely to happen.  I breast feed my baby, so I can’t be away from him for that long.  And when I do get some time to be alone at home, I’d most probably spend it ironing or folding our clothes, cleaning the house or surfing the net.  Hayyy… I have to laundry, iron and fold 4 times of clothes’ number now that our family is growing.  The kids easily soil their clothes, a change of outfit twice a day is already a miracle.  All those things I want to do before kids will have to be set aside.  Maybe when the little one is already 2 years old, I’ll have more free time for myself.  Or maybe when we’re very rich, we can hire a maid (ha! maid in Europe?)… wishful thinking na sad!
