Week 3 in Monterey.

It is 1 week after the last post. I am still missing home... I still want to tear when I begin to think of home. I am such a cry baby. helo, whoever reading my blog, i m still thinking of you. =)

In this 1 week, we have moved to the new place. It is double storey (I have muscle ache after 2 days of climbing up n down the stairs many many times!), fully carpeted except toilets, dining and kitchen area, has a little front yard. It feels like going to a chalet when I first move in. But as we start shifting things around, buying things to fill the house, it feels a little like dream home cos it is something I wouldn't have in Singapore.

And I begin my life as a home maker. It is a very busy job, with packed schedules and timeline to meet, oh, and with budget too. It is like doing a coordinator + operation job at the same time. My to do list is always increasing, with the priority changing at different time of the day.
It is so packed and mundane that I need to fb/msn at night to feel that I still belong to myself. (maybe only I understand what I am talking here). It is like my daily routine is determined by caleb's meal, caleb's play, caleb's abc & 1,2,3. Yet, there is fulfilment in itself as you spend the day with caleb, just being busy with his stuff. aiya, it is so hard to explain the dilemma I am facing.

I am also busy planning my MIL's visit. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT to plan someone's holiday!!!

I want to post some very beautiful pictures when I got time. that's like #?? in my list. hee...

maybe you'll find back yourself when the routine is stabilize and you'r on top of everything.

But definitely you'll find back your truest self (a beloved daughter of your Abba Father) if you take time to sit at His feet and rest in His love! :)
