Blessed Mother I Am

Don't you just feel so blessed if your child wakes you up and telling you that your breakfast is ready? My five year old son did it for the first time today. My heart jumped for joy after i saw his prepared breakfast in the kitchen table, a bowl of cold cereal, two bagels with whipped cream cheese on top and a glass of milk on the side. Although mess is expected at the area but i count of his effort more than the mess he made. It's the thought of serving me breakfast that i really love.

I never did expect that my son can actually serve me breakfast at his age, he is too young to think such things like this, but he actually did and i am so proud of him! I must have raised a good son, he copies what i do everyday and because of that, i feel so blessed for having him in my life. Not all mothers are blessed, and able to cherish every moment with their kids for some mothers has to go to work enable for them to feed their kids and support their needs. I just feel so lucky that i am a stay home mother that can watch my kids twenty four hours a day, seven days a week.

And because of what my son did for me, i gave him a tight hug and a sweet kiss in the morning. That way, he will feel that his effort is being appreciated by mommy, and of course i thanked him for thinking of serving me breakfast. He in fact told me that he will do it everyday, i thanked him once again although i don't count on it.

Winter Is Officially Here

Yay, it finally snowed here for the very first time of this year. The ground is so white and the temperature is getting so cold again. I guess no one can stop it, yup! Winter is officially here!!! It is my little potato's very fist winter, i need to wrap him up real good so he won't be surprised with the cold weather. Also my oldest one needs to be wrapped up when he goes so he won't get sick or he might not be able to go to school for so many days. This is the most i hate part of the season, the freezing cold weather. Especially i have a little baby now that i have to drag along whenever i take my son to school and to pick him up as well since i have no one here with me whom i can trust my baby to take care. Hubby goes to work early and get home soon a little after i pick our son up from his school. I have no choice but to do this, it sometimes tiring but it's my obligation as a parent so i must not complain.

Missing His Giggles

I was cleaning in our front room and saw my son's old pictures displayed by our China Cabinet. And then the memories started to flow in my mind how giggly he was when he was just a little cute boy. Now, he is more serious and doesn't want to be treated like baby. He kept telling us his daddy that he is no longer a baby, he is a big boy or a man, lols! I so miss my little boy when he was just little, those screams and giggles that tickles my ears and his laughter that is very contagious. Here's the best photos that i took over two years ago, which was caught in the act by Mommy how he giggles.

I Learned That....

I learned a lot of things just because of my previous post, a lot of mothers had reacted to it. I respect everyone's points of view and decisions and i am expecting the same way in return. I am a mother of a 3 year old boy and i must say that i am trying to be a good mother and trying to mold my son so he will become a good and fine person someday. I know that everybody has different ways of how they raise their child and they practice of what they think is the best for the child. I am one of the billions of mothers in the world who is aiming that my child will be a respectful human being, has good manners and behavior.

I know also that i have offended some of my readers here because of a certain word that they think is really a big no no to them. I understand them, that's how they brought up and that's what they are going to apply to their children. I have no questions about that and i don't doubt to their capability to raise their children because as what sayings say "Mothers knows best". I love my son and i don't abuse him, as what others said that there is a fine line between spanking and abusing. And i have been telling this over and over that i spank my son just enough for him to realize that i mean it and he should mind me as his mother.

I love to hear other mother's opinion because from that, i learn so many things. Just like what i told to Laane, that i am a very open minded person, but not perfect not to get offended. I am asking an apology to those who got offended here. I would like you all to know that i love my son so much and i am doing that i think what is best for my son for him to be a good man someday and of course i don't intent to harm him. And of course he is happy and just like other ordinary kids that wants to jump around and make some mess in the house. I only punish him when it is really needed to do so, but it is very rare to happen because he knows not to do such things that is not right.

Laane, my apology if you got offended to my way of disciplining my child but sometimes letting your child get hurt a little bit does work. I hope that you will be able to read this for you to understand my side and i don't want to offend my readers, my intention here is to update my son's progress as he grow up. So peace be with you and God bless!
