When I grow up I wanna be.....

What was your ambition when you were young? Teacher? I believe many of us wrote that in our compositions back in primary school. I didn't want to conform to the norm so I wrote I wanted to be a nurse. (But later I found out that I will faint at the sight of blood so no Ms Florence Nightingale job for me.)

When I was in secondary school, I wanted to join the police force. (Due to the influence of too much HK police drama series.) Hence I joined the NPCC in school. I got lazy in JC and the thought of becoming a police soon faded off.

I don't know when did I started to have this noble ambition. To be a full time housewife. Don't you dare laugh at me!! It's the toughest, underpaid, have to work 24/7 and unappreciated job. I remembered I once told my mum why I wanted to be a full time housewife. Because I don't want to miss any significant moment of my kids' growing up. I want to nurture them on my own. I also want to decorate the house I want it to be. Making sure my hubby wears ironed, clean clothes to work and returns home to warm, yummylicious dinner are my KPIs. With this ambition in mind, my decision to accept which job offer is crystal clear. It may be a more boring job, lesser room for advancement, but all these are not my priorities. My family, my hubby and my baby are. What is a few hundreds more compared to the time spent with the ones I love?

I wanna thank my hubby for all the support he has given me throughout this period. Be it emotionally, mentally or financially. He is not romantic, even though I big hint, small hint and even tell him directly I want a present on Mother's Day he still DIDN'T get me one... but he definitely loves me many many and will be there for me, always. I love my Silly, Lazy, Piggy Hubby :)
