Regular Mum (Not up-sized)

I think... I will just be a Regular Mum in the future. Not up-sized.

Up-sized as in "Super Mum" - one who can juggle high-level of management work in office, and come home to juggle diapers, milk bottles, tantrums throwing kids (more than 1 kid), cooking, and household chores. And not someone who can drive her own kids to and fro (have been very out of touch in driving. Confidence level real low). Someone who has super duper abilities to cope with all sorts of stress in life, without crumbling down emotionally, mentally & physically.

I am just a regular 9-to-5 working woman, forsee myself not climbing up the corporate ladder, and not earning big bucks. Haiz. How to provide my kids with those good and expensive extra circular classes leh? Like piano, ballet, enrichment classes. Can't earn enuf to even treat my own family to holidays, or going for good meals..

I am just a regular and normal woman, who's not really strong & independent, mostly dependent on hubby.

I am just a regular person, who do not have good knowledge/IQ/EQ....whatever you can name.

So, I think, I guess... I might just be a Regular Mum(?)

  2. No la, I am not depressed la. Just being realistic after reflecting on own abilities, and also when compared with my capable sis-in-law.

    I do hope I will be a Super Mum in my own ways next time!

  4. "How to provide my kids with those good and expensive extra circular classes leh? Like piano, ballet, enrichment classes" - your kids dun need these...these are optional. Just give them lots of love and attention.
