How would you like your kids to be carrying gadgets around?
Initially, I thought of not letting the girls carry anything tech inside or out of the house. But I found out that it can come in handy, especially when you want to tame your kids in one corner and be able to enjoy a few minutes of a peaceful life. Yes, the minutes that the kids spend playing Nintendo DS is like heaven. Well, of course that’s granting they don’t wrestle over that single DS that hubby bought for them.
And while the kids are growing with all the gadgets that their father has, I was kind of worried thatf they will soon come to ask me for their own iPhone! Of course, the kids would want the latest and most modern phone for themselves, wouldn’t they? And what is going to come next, iphone 4 accessories and then, more blings for it and then it will be an unending request.
Oh I better get them to stop early than get me crazy later. LOL!
I enjoy having a girl talk with my twins, it gives me the feeling that I am not only a mom to them but a friend as well. I know that soon my girls would start sharing their secrets about boys, but I hope it will not be so soon.
They may also heed some advises regarding taking care of themselves so they will always look beautiful. I will be very eager in sharing with them my beauty secrets. I hope they would not need to worry about skin breakout or pimples; but there are products such as acnepril that can resolve this issue. As a mom I know that we will share matters of the heart and questions about life; but as of now, I will just have to enjoy being their playmate.
Today, I was on leave to take care of some school stuffs for the kids. After we went to school and bought another set of uniform, we headed straight to SM Megamall to buy for a couple more school suppliers and a few stuffs for the husband.
We were so hungry after the school event so we decided to have lunch in Paluto. Quite out of the budget but hubby said he’ll make up for it the whole week. Make up doesn’t mean he’ll pay for it but rather – he won’t ask for expensive meals the whole week as his sacrifice for spending much today LOL! The kids loved the fried fish and we enjoyed the crabs. It was a sumptuous meal really.
At the mall, we brought the kids to the children’s section and let them pick what bag they want. They are already at the age when they no longer want to have the same things, the same colors and the same styles. I was so happy I was able to play with their dresses and stuffs when they were still young because I have prepared and thought that this day will surely come. Scieszka chose the pink backpack while Elysia wanted red. Actually, I already told them not to buy new bags because their aunt have already sent them early this year. But they said, they have already used it when they went to school this summer (they mean the tutorial session). They were all so into choosing their stuffs until I have gotten tired already. I wanted to go home because I am already catching up my breath just to cope up with them. I thought I already shed off a few pounds? Guess I would need some help of weight loss products again.
We were able to get all the items we needed today and the things they will need in school come June 15 – the kids were pretty tired when they get home and after dinner, went off to bed 
That is how my daughters are! You can only rest when they are sleeping – literally. When they are aware, it seems like playing gives them more energy to do a lot of things one after another. They just don’t get tired. Amazing! My mother is already having joint pain following them around.
Seems that the girls grew even naughtier than last year. I thought when they turn four, I will be able to give them instructions and be able to tell what is right and what is wrong but it is more than just that. Instilling discipline to the kids is not an easy task. It requires a lot of patient and understanding and mine is at the limits already LOL! I sometimes freak out.
I was already thinking of bring them to a child psychiatrist just so that I can be taught about how to deal with different things that the kids are doing and how to cope up with their moods, tantrums and a lot more. I feel like I am at my limits and I could break down one of these days. It isn’t easy being a parent. And it’s even more difficult rearing a child. The parent’s impact on the child’s physical, emotional and spiritual aspects will be very important in the future. The early stages are the most difficult as always but I am looking forward to seeing my daughters with a good paying job, a nice and warm family and a bright future. That is what parents would always dream of.
Just another 14 days and the kids will officially be going to school. I have already bought their uniforms, school supplies and other school miscellaneous items. Their school shoes and rubber shoes are both courtesy by my mother-in-law. I still can’t imagine myself getting up so early every day to prepare the kids for school and myself for work. Their first school month will be the most critical part as we all learn to adjust in terms of schedules and priorities. The kids specifically needs to learn how to sleep early and wake up early. They were so used to sleeping late and tomorrow, we’ll start with some adjustments at home.
The very first thing I need to do is ask hubby to refrain from watching his animes so late. The kids doesn’t have their own room yet and they can’t sleep when their dad is watching. I will have to do some litle adjustments for myself too! I am insomniac so most of my evenings are spent designing digital kits and I believe it will help my stamina if I will learn to sleep more.
A lot of things need to be prepared. Their school service and who will be their companion every day. I can be there when there is an opportunity for me to come in late for work but I don’t think I will have much of that. And while thinking of the things I will be doing in the next couple of months, I can imagine I will be needing an acne pill again very soon. Pimples will start surfacing due to lack of sleep and stress. Whew!
Just when I thought my kids are ready to go to school, I don’t think I can proudly say I am LOL!
