A Mother's Feeling

Due to work, i have not been able to see my Daryl Darling for close to 3 days, and this annoyed me much. I dunno what the hell i m doing. I am beginning to doubt if i am a good mum. HB lately asked me, why are we suddenly working so hard for, and he commented that he would rather earn lesser and be like the past, where we had quality wkends with our friends and son, than now.

but work shall still continue, only that i shall be selective abt accepting jobs from now on. Problem is: can i do that?

Seeing Daryl Darling growing up so fast, makes me wonder out of his 5yrs in this world, how much quality time have we given him? Its only a few days that i havent taken a proper look at my handsome chap, but when i set my eyes on him today, i realised he has grown quite a fair bit lately. Taller by a few cms, face rounder by a little and character moulded by a fair bit. hahaha, what a change and what an irony, to start seeing the changes only cos of the lack of time spent with him.

You know, sometimes its tough to be a mother, a dutiful one, that is. But all will be worthwhile if Daryl understands why we are working hard. And yes, while i still have some energy left, i guess i better learn to balance btw family and work. And when reality sets in, i will hv to make a choice btw them. Bear with me, son.
