It takes me less than 5 minutes to reach my office everyday. At times, I'd walk to the office since is just right outside the housing area I stay.
In the morning, I will join my neighbors for an hour of exercise before having breakfast with my youngest daughter. Sometimes after the exercise, my neighbors and I will be having "picnic" at the park with their delicious cooking & I'll skip my breakfast at home.
In the afternoon, I'll go home for my maid's home cook food. Depends on the workload, sometimes I will be able to meet my youngest daughter before her transporter sends her to school. Usually my 2 elder kids will be home before I go back to the office and they'll eagerly tell me what happen in school...
Knowing my schedule, at times my youngest daughter would call and tell me how much she miss me and wanted me to be home earlier for lunch. Once she said,"it's so unfair, ko ko & cieh cieh can see you during lunch time everyday..."
A few weeks ago I spotted something sweet she wrote on the whiteboard.
"wake up early, hug mom and dad, ask them if they can eat lunch early, if they can, kiss them then go to school."
I'm sure a lunch that comes with my daughter's kisses will surely be the best meal ever!
I'll try my best to be home earlier.. I promise.
