It has been 7 months since our last visit here in our hometown. So, when we saw our family and friends for the first time last Thursday, they can’t help but notice my son’s rapid weight gain. My son is only 2 years old and he already weights 17 kilos. Most of our family members and friends say that he must not gain more weight or else he might become overweight and have some problems later on.

Our son doesn’t eat a lot of rice but her does drink a lot of milk. So, I guess it’s time to regulate his milk. And since he always ask for milk, I will still give him according to his demand but this time I have to lessen the milk formula like instead of 4 scoops of milk for 7 oz. water, I will now have to only put 2 scoops. I’m sure he will notice the difference in taste and texture but I’m sure he will still drink it without complains.

It’s already school holidays in Malaysia. My li’l girl even had an early holiday as we had to travel back home. And since it’s not yet school holidays here in the Philippines, my sis invited my li’l girl to join her son in school. My li’l girl decline for reasons I’m not sure of. It’s either she’s tired to go to school or she wants to just enjoy playing and watching TV at home. I also don’t want to force her because as far as she’s concerned, she’s on a school holiday.

Anyways, I’m just preparing myself to homeschool her next year. We haven’t ordered her materials yet and hopefully we can do so before the year ends. Her homeschool materials are quite expensive though I’m sure it’s much more cheaper than college books. But I just hope my li’l girl and I will have a great time in homeschool.

I’ve just lost my temper and it’s a not pretty sight! sigh! I’ve been a bit impatient especially with my kids these days and I need more of God’s grace, patience and gentleness. I know it’s not an easy road to take and there will be more testings of patience but I’ve realized that indeed I cannot make myself be patient and gentle. I need of God’s grace everyday and I can only attain this most prized attribute by abiding in HIm, in His Presence and in His word day by day.
