April, being a special month for me, was a time to celebrate. Besides my birthday, it also marked our 13th wedding anniversary and the end of my confinement. Woohoo!
That means I could now go out more often, bring the baby out, take baths, wear shorts, don't wear socks, go to air-conditioned places, eat the food I have been craving, drink cold and fizzy drinks, eat ice-cream, all without feeling in the least guilty. Haha. Shiok to the max!
I definitely loved regaining my freedom and was all ready to bring the kids out whenever I could. If I had known that Phase 2 (HA) was going to hit in May, I would have treasured that freedom and those times that we were able to eat out and head out as a big family even more.
In this post of "Happiness is...", it's about appreciating the freedom and learning to better cherish the simple joys in my life. These include being able to wake up to a smiley baby every morning, eating out with my kids, having a peaceful movie night, having home cooked meals, and having a family to care for. Well, I don't even mind waking up a few times a night and needing to pump, breastfeed and change diapers because I know deep down, that is also a blessing in itself. Read on for more of our happenings in the month of April.
