'Market vi sit' with my darling teaching her what can we get from the wet market
About 2 years ago I attended a full moon party. While talking to my cousin who is of course the mother of a new baby, she said these words " I cant wait to go back to work, 2 months leave is too long,I pity those suri rumah ( house wives).."I was quite shocked to hear that. I thought 2 months is not that long and not all suri rumah or I like it when u call them SAHM ( stay at home mom) hates being at home. I believe many mommies out there loves being at home, looking after their kids.And some mommies stay at home did it by choice,for the loves of their kids. If you ask me, I think it's a big sacrifice. What say you ladies?
Recently, the government announced that the maternity leaves is extended to 3 months. I know not all women out there is happy. with the announcement. Well, happy or not it all depend on the individuals. I extended my maternity leaves for another 3 months, unpaid of course. If people asked me why, I told them I want to breastfeed without any interruption from office duties. I hate to write letters to my superior asking for permission not to attend any courser,meetings away from home. Apart from that I want to have a feel of being a "suri rumah"... It's been more than 3 months mow and my verdict? I am enjoying every bit of my suri rumah experiences. I managed to pursue my new interest in sewing, I managed to conduct few cupcake baking and decorating classes and the most important things is I manage to spend time with my darlings day and night. The time I spend with them, the feeling of seeing them grow in front of your eyes.It's priceless.
Being a SAHM is always on my mind and whatever I put something on my wants.dreams list, I normally get it. I know one day I 'll be SAHM .So, my dear cousin, if one day I choose to stay at home and become a suri rumah, please don't pity me as I am beginning to like the life I'm having now
