Easter

Easter is coming up in 2 weeks and this Easter will be extra special for me as I am finally getting baptized after all these years. It has been quite a long journey until I truly get myself together to join God's big family. I am so grateful for all the love and support from the RCIA teachers and my Godparents, who will be travelling all the way from Indiana to attend my baptism this Easter. I can't wait to see my Godparents and spend some quality time with them. Perhaps I should plan a trip back to Indiana sometime this year. It has been a couple of years that I haven't been back and I miss them dearly.

Happy early Easter everyone!

Work life balance

Time just went by way too fast the older you get.  It has been more than 3 months since I went back to work and I am finally used to coming to work everyday.  The biggest struggle I have with work is I feel like there is never enough time to do everything I want when I am not working. I never get time to tidy up the house (not to mention the cleaning part), paying bills, running errands, and even watching my favorite shows.

Another challenge is to find time to spend with Aaron when I am exhausted after work everyday. Music and swim lessons are now scheduled on weekdays to free up weekends to do stuff together, but they wore us all out a little too well.  Even though it's tiring raising a child, I keep telling myself that Aaron is growing up so fast that I am going to miss all these days with him.  I don't mind being called a helicopter mom because I truly love hovering around Aaron and give him a hand whenever he needs it.

Wouldn't it be nice if we all have 48 hours a day? ;)
