Maternity leave ...

Sandy's four months of maternity leave is about to end next week and she will be returning to the office.

Just like any school going child, time spent away from school is never enough. Same applies for mothers.

Time spent with your flesh and blood is never enough especially when the bonding of mother and child during the four months have become so much of a routine. I am sure Sandy will miss the little rascal when she's at work.

What really worries me is whether or not she can manage household chores and caring for Luca. It sure is no easy feat.

Being stubborn her, she does not want domestic help as she feels it infringes into her privacy. True because I can't be wearing my undies and walking around too.

Looks like I will have to start going hands on and helping her with the chores - perhaps I will have to start changing the diapers for Luca while she performs other tasks, on condition it is not soiled. Ha ha.

Thankfully we have a huge support team who consists of our parents, godparents and aunts who never say no to us whenever we need them around.

Luca will be placed at my godparents' place in the interim and until he is old enough to attend school then will we decide what the next step should be.

So looks like our mornings will have to start much earlier from next week onwards where the alarm goes off at 7am. Hope Luca will be cooperative too and wake up without being too grouchy because his temper is getting from bad to worse now.

You want to see how bad his temper is? Try provoking him the next time you meet him and he'll roar so loud you'll back off.

That's what a tiger boy does.

Ok. Time of get out of the train now.
