Jeff and Enzo

It's been almost 2 months since my last post. A lot of distractions brought about by the burden of slavery called work made me miss my blogging ritual. So how does a working mom like me able to weather workplace burdens, relationship troubles, financial woes while raising young sons and endeavoring to live a full life? A lot of help from friends, loved ones; unconditional and silent love from my sons; and resilient spirit fortified by God's grace.
Sometimes I ask what is the essence of working hard but not having time to watch and be part of my kids' lives? Especially now that Jeff is a teenager and Enzo is not anymore a baby. Everyday, they amaze me and how I suffer knowing I cannot experience one of the most amazing things that happens in this world-- my kids' growing up. While taking a break from this post, Enzo took control and wrote this on the post " i like super inggo and karate kid my latest favorite is 1940 mark of zorro" - a constant reminder of his ever changing tastes and favorites.
Jeff is into computer gaming. It's a struggle to get him un-hooked. But our compromise is - gaming is only on weekends; no computers during school days.He strictly follows it- no ifs, no buts except when further compromises are made and only a mother's heart can understand why rules are sometimes bended. :)
Life should be simple, fulfilling and fun-filled. I intend to get hold of my life again not just for myself but for my kids as well. They are missing out on what Mommy has to offer in their lives too.
