Looking back

I had been very blessed in my whole life. Looking back from my early years, it wasn't that great but I can say that it was fun. I had made loads of friends and did a lot of interesting things which I can treasure all through the years. And I am so thankful to my parents... life is not that bad at all after all.

I understand now that parenting is a "hardwork". From day 1 that you are pregnant, it seems that you've given up yourself - like for some, they don't wanna smell any perfumes, picky with foods to eat or eat a lot, always sick and my list will goes on and on... Then it will feel like forever. Comes the due date that you're going to meet this little creature, and for some babies, they take ages to come out in the open hehe. Like me, I was overdue for 6 days, and she got very heavy and became unbearable that you just want to explode. Finally, there she comes to meet you with a loud cry... how wonderful huh! And surprise surprise! sleepless nights are on the way.

But it was a wonderful life-turning experience. Now I appreciate my mum in different perspective. I respect her a lot more. And my love for my parents grew more and more...
