Happy or not

Remember this post about my thoughts of not being able to give my son a school party he was expecting to have? Yesterday, I was finally able to get a confirmation and it was a GO.

I wrote a letter for his teacher advising her that we will be throwing a small celebration for him on Friday. When I got home, he gave me out a print out of the schedule for March. At first, I didn’t bother to read it only to find out just this morning that there will be no classes on Friday because of the Grade 6 NAT examination.

Gawd! I actually do not know now what to do. He was expecting it big time and when I was finally able to make it come true, another obstacle came our way. It can’t be on the 3rd as it’s too early and I don’t have enough time to prepare yet. I was thinking to still throw him a party on the 9th instead, as there is a Musical Program on the 7th and 8th in their school.

Now, don’t you think the party is really not meant for him?

Press of time

Let me just rant.

Exactly one week from now, my little boy J will turn five. Since all his classmates celebrated their birthdays in their school, he was expecting the same too. At first, we were kind of sceptical at the idea as our funds are not that big for such. However, I saw a light when my company announced that our performance bonus will be credited to our account on the 28th. The husband gave me a go signal to allot part of it for h is party.

By then, I started to make a list of things to buy as well as the budget for the party. I have even hired a graphic artist to make his invite which was paid by PayPal money.

The party was a go – not?

Until now, which is the last working day of the week and Monday is already the 28th of the month – there was still no announcement or general assembly about our bonus. I have to order his cake today but I can’t because of it.

I do not know what to do. I can’t break my son’s heart.

I am a bad mom…

I am still h ere

It’s been a while since my last post here. Motherhood plus my corporate job has taken a toll of me. It was kinda hard to juggle all my responsibilities now most especially that the kids are growing up fast.

My son will be turning five next week and that makes me think of wanting to really quit my job and just be with them – that is, if I could.

I promise to update this soon – when work is lesser and stress is out of the way.

See you later!
