我其实对烹饪不感兴趣。但是，身为妈妈，希望孩子在家吃得健康、吃得开心。当他们长大后，回想起童年，但愿他们能记得这些简单的家常便饭，记得一家人一起用餐的快乐，记得这种温馨、舒适的感觉，记得父母亲对他们的爱。❤ 所以，我会继续煮下去，谢谢你们不但不嫌弃妈妈的料理，还常常说感恩的话，让我明白一切的劳累都是值得的。爱你们哟! ~

Laundry on the sofa, playing cards unkept, toys strewn all over, living room in a mess as usual. I was contemplating if I should edit the photo to neaten the background but decided against it.
Because this is who we are and this is how our life is. So instead of getting frustrated by the constant mess, we are thankful for having home cooked on the table. It's not something the kids take for granted because they see how tough it can be to cook, clean and care for four kids day in day out.
To be honest, I've never really loved cooking but I do it for the sake of the kids and hope that these memories will stay etched in their hearts even when they are all grown up. Every meal encompasses joy and symbolises my love for them. Just like how I remember my mum used to cook for me as a child, I know my kids will appreciate these moments too.
Dinner last night was salted vegetable duck soup, baked seabass with lemon and tomatoes, and fried rice with ham and egg. Oh, and pumpkin and banana puree for the baby. So simple, but also heartwarming and full of love.
Let's tuck in, kiddos, and celebrate the start of the September school holidays where we will be staying home, cooking, doing homework and revision, watching movies, dancing, playing card games and hangman, chatting about anything under the sun and enjoying how rowdy but merry the house is.
一家人能在一起就是最大的幸福。❤
