I don't like cooking. I don't like thinking of what to cook. The last time Nana went to USA, Joseph was only about 6 weeks old. Life was much easier because I just had to give him the breast and he fed himself. I didn't have to defrost food. No need to debone fish. I hate fishy fingers! No need to chop vege.
I've always known it's much easier to go out and work than to be a full-time stay-at-home-mummy with no maid.
I've no idea how my mum raised the 3 of us while babysitting another dozen kids while we ourselves were still kids.
So far it's been alright. The kids don't seem much thinner and are just as happy.
Joy-Anne is particularly sticky to me now. But it's really nice to greet her in the morning and she throws her arms around me and says, "I'm glad you're my mother".
At other times she hugs me and says, "Mama....you're my best friend!"
I've only worked a grand total of ONE DAY since Nana left. Daalin took care of the kids and took even managed a trip to the park.
Joseph is sometimes very VERY good. He can make the bed on his own initiative.

He can also hold her bottle when she refuses to, read to her, make her laugh and also cry.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmJH1bHRlKUMyaiwDAhpGt8HnUvdFiSiE7-E0gL-d5hBQIOK6z25Tt9-uXeYKrSvFH8AzvWc7m_pf2jUiRbmjl432bPaIJKFemPPwB7zPHF-9cHXnTaxh1GQMTvKRqtcH9zGzx/s400/photo1.JPG)
So while they play, I can still manage some packing. I tried this on yesterday...
It's my dance costume made when I was 15 years old. I can still wear it!!!
Anyway...I'll be quite glad when Nana comes back..... in 2 months time!!!
