Sape cakap senang

I tend to get annoyed. Yup, annoyed with capital A. I really wish people stop making remarks about how easy my life is. They just like to comment, "you senanglah, anak2 dah besar..." or the classic remark, " you senanglah, anak2 mak bapak jaga". I think I have posted about this somewhere in the blogs before about how easy people can pass this kind of remarks just to potray their life is much worse than mine.

Let me just say this once and for all(hopefully). Yup, I don't have to change diapers, yup, I don't have to prepare milk, yup, I don't have to bath them, and dress them and yada yada yada...

But, I still have to wash their clothes, just like to do. I have to prepare food for them, and now they are big enough to complain about the food prepared, big enough to have their own preference and having 3 kids meaning having 3 types of preference (and this is not inclusive of the Papa's preference). I have to wash their school uniforms and mostly using hand wash cause they will be playing in school and come back with the uniform looking like they just had a brutal battle somewhere. Then, I have to do the ironing and making sure they have arranged theirs books according to the timetable, that they have completed their homework and go to bed on time so that they have no problem to wake up early to go to school.

I am not saying having small children are easier. This may surprise you but before the cuties are this big, yup, they were small too(duh!!!) so I know the difficulties back then especially when they are like a year plus apart from each other. And nope, back then, I don't have that much support from my parents as they were still working. I only allow them to take care of the cuties after both of them have retired i.e. 2 years ago (my dad retired early but I felt the cuties were to small for my dad to handle) and by that time, all the cuties were already in school hence they will only stay with my parents while transiting from primary school to religious school.

Nope, I never had a maid, and that was the choice that me and my better half agreed upon. Of course we have to juggle our schedules as both of us are working. So, I strongly felt to those who have the audacity to pass remarks about how easy my life is, you are just trying to make yourself feel better about your life.

In a nutshell, being a mother, regardless whether your kids are big or small, or whether you have any help or doing this all by yourself, will have own set of problems. Comparing your life with others are just sad.....

Sorry, teremo pulak but emo in your own blog ok kan?
