No kakak

Our maid Jane has gone back to the Philippines after completing her 2 years' contract.  She is supposed to return in 3 weeks so fingers crossed there's no hiccup!

Bye kakak!

She prepared some things before going... pruned plants in the garden, dug the kids' ears, packed their stuff for our holiday, made their juice for a week, painted their toe-nails etc.

I want flowers, kakak

So in the meantime, I get to be the kakak haha.  I have resolved to let things be if necessary.  But it has been rather tiring also.  Felt it already at our first home-cooked meal - preparing, cooking, serving, making sure the kids eat properly, cleaning up and washing, then cutting fruits and washing again. Luckily hubby helped out (he doesn't always) before heading out to work at night. Then I did some reading with the kids before getting their milk ready.

Two more weeks to go.

  1. I thought all of you went for holiday during the 1 week school holiday so no posts. Jane must be a very good helper to get everything prepared before returning to her home for a 3-week break. You can get SE and JE to help out with their father for the next 2 weeks.

    1. No posts coz busy haha. No no... SE and JE will be more of a nuisance than help. They will be VERY excited to help for sure. But I will need a kakak to help clean up after them!

  2. Jane is a good kakak. She is very thoughtful to prepare everything before she leaves for home. Not easy to get good maids these days.
