Seventeen years ago, in the seventh month, I was nursing a slight cough, a surgery wound on my abdomen, and a newborn baby girl.

Long days of feeding, burping, diaper-changing, sleepless nights to eating solid food, first steps, toilet-training culminated in the schooling years. In a flash, she's a teenager and almost 20. WHAT?!😲 arts rabbit hole She grew up drawing... on paper, on walls, on her feet. Until … [Read more...]

November 10, 2019 by ceemee

Once upon a time, this blog was loosely based on finding blessings in the mundane and appreciating the gift of an ordinary day. In the year 2011, I was inspired by this video. My children were still very young then, and I think that one of the most ordinary things in life is a mother taking care of her children. I felt tired and I sorely lack sleep. Ā  Recently, I found this book The Gift of an Ordinary Day by Katrina Kenison, the author in the video, on a shelf of a kiosk that sells second-hand … [Read more...]

Long, Long Night, Cymplified!

long, long night of a worried mom

What is worse than a long night of being sick, coughing and lying awake? It's a long night of my children taking ill; their foreheads, necks, backs and armpits hot with fever and their feet cold. Measuring out paracetamol for them to take every four hours. Sitting by them at the dining table, long after the meal was finished, to oversee them ingest every last drop of their antibiotics and other medicines. Here's another poem I wish to share. It's not an old one, I wrote it as a mother who … [Read more...]

parent's Christmas filled with love

the parents' Christmas lists 'Twas the year before Christmas, and all through the world, plan-ahead parents are writing down potential gifts for their family and friends.

keeping up with motherhood

Confusion. Apprehension. Exhaustion. Whether I like it or not, those will always be a part of keeping up with motherhood and all the things that come with it. Even if I am in a season where the children are all in Elementary; and they have no need for milk and diaper changes every few hours, I still feel confused, apprehensive and exhausted. Tutoring three children make my head spin most of the time. I get confused about the schedules and the coverages of the quizzes; also regarding the … [Read more...]
