When kid no 1 is sick

Rachel is not feeling well, and then, it strikes me that now, things are all different. We won't only be concentrating on getting kid no 1 well, but we have to concentrate on making sure kid no 1 does not spread her germs to kid no 2!!!! My oh my.... things are very different now, with 2 kids.

When we were planning for kid no 2, it did not occur to me how much more work 2 kids is, compared to 1. (well, hubby did time and again tell me, but I chose to ignore him big time....) Now, not only do we have to take care of the welfare or well-being of 2 kids, we have to take care of how they feel towards one another. It's pretty tiring. I hope it will get much better, as my already short-temper cannot get anymore shorter, else there will be a cold war at home!!!!!

However, no regrets about 2 kids....but definitely gotta think about it again, if we do plan for the 3rd one!!!!

what a timely posting. I totally lost my cool this arvo. Stuck at home alone with the 2 kids on a 40+ degree day, aircon broken, i'm starving, blood sugar level dropping & the 2 kids crying at the same time. This crossed my mind, I QUIT, i'm going insane. Yeah shame on me, but i admit i'm no supermom.

Hope Rachel will get better soon. More importantly make sure u fall sick. The whole family's wellbeing is dependent on YOU :)

Rachel has become really whiny these days. It is taking a big toll on us. I am starting to shout already, which I did at one time tell myself that THAT is not how I want to discipline my child....sighhhh..... can't make plans or resolutions just like that...
