Coping

It's that time of the year again.

The stay-back phase.....

When you're still single...totally-okay.

When you're a married woman.....still-okay.

When you're a mother of one....so-so-okay.

When you're a mother of two....not-that-okay.

Yes, it is hard...it is difficult...to stay back late at the office while your little children, waiting for you at home patiently. But, that's the nature of our work...we're going to be super-duper busy for the upcoming National Budget 2013 a.k.a completing the Economic Report for this country. 

That's the drawback of being in the same division..us..mrs.wifey and mr.hubby. Sigh!!!!  

Right now, we still continue with the arrangement of Hayra with her Tok Mak and Emyr with her Opah or vice versa because we don't want to burden our mothers by looking after both Hayra and Emyr at the same time (..but, this is not going to be a permanent arrangement. We will change this arrangement when the time is right).

Let me share with you our current time arrangement.

8.30pm - Clock out (..that's the earliest )

8.40pm - Already at MOF's parking lot and we're going to start the journey from Putrajaya to Ampang.

9.25pm - Reached Bukit Indah (my in-laws house) to pick up Hayra

(...15-20 minutes rest-a-while phase)

9.50pm - Off to my parents' house

(...10 minutes drive)

10.00pm - Reached Cempaka (..and hoping that Emyr is still wide awake so that he can play a little while with his sister)

Every night, during our journey back to Ampang, I would always hope for both of them not to go to sleep first because I want to play with them..have fun with them, I want to see their smile...to hear their laughter. Even though, our bonding-time together would only be for just less than an hour...that is just enough for now (I wish I can have more...but, need to wait until September end).

Mmm...how would it be for the upcoming weeks when we have to go back late up to 12am. Sigh!!!!

 Picture taken : Yesterday (25.7.12)

Situation :  Hayra 'mengarahkan' emaknya untuk meletakkan Emyr kat bakul tempat barang basikal (coz dia ingat tu tempat duduk...bolehhhh). Apa2 pun...Hayra sangat happy membawa adiknya serata rumah dan Emyr sangat suka coz kakak nye bawak dia jenjalan tawaf satu rumah.
