I used to blog frequently about my parenting journey until last year, when my do-list got longer and the time I had with my family seemed little. I reckoned its because I embarked on my nursing career in a local government hospital, working 3 rotating shifts with only 3 days off every 2 weeks.
Then less than a week ago, when I completed a year of service with the hospital, I did a little reflection on what I had done and how far I've come. Well, I am thankful to God, and I must say I'm a little proud of myself, yet very disappointed at how the quality of life (for my family, myself and my patients) had been compromised. I read through my parenting blog a few nights ago, and I found myself reading them over and over again. They were such a wonderful source of encouragement to myself! I found strength when I went through those posts I wrote during difficult times, and realised how much I had depended on God on those occasions and how God answered my prayers timely and graciously. Hence, I decided to start a blog to document my journey as a working mother. And not just any working mother. I am a mother at home, a mother (to all my young colleagues) at work, as well as a mother to some of my patients at times.
So journey with me, read my stories, share my joy, my laughter, frustrations and occasional disappointments. And drop me a words of encouragement if you wish. I'd greatly appreciate it!
