When we found we were pregnant in Feb 2006, hubby (hereinafter refer to as "Di") was first to suggest starting a blog (which he eventually did) as a diary for our parenthood journey. I didn't bother because I'm not sure if I can persevere in writing (rather typing) one. So why bother to start one now? Hmmm... Because I recently completed a scrap book documenting my motherhood journey from Feb 06 - Apr 07 and we could recall so many fond memories going through the book. Besides, Di stopped updating his blog due to time/energy constraints, and its a lot more tedious to cut/paste photos, design layout, write my thoughts, etc. in the scrap book. I finally decided on the easier way out - BLOG. Hence, my diary to document our (or rather, my) parenthood journey begins here.
Being first time parents to a pair of twins is an amazing experience for us. Without any family history, we conceived the twins unexpectedly, yet with much anticipation and joy. They're indeed treasures from the Lord. Now that they've come this far - from newborns to high speed crawlers, we can't helped but feel proud of ourselves for having such high levels of endurance in caring for them. On the other hand, I really salute those who have triplets or multiples, as well as parents with more than 2 children. These young innocent creatures can easily turn 2 otherwise organised, competent parents into incoherent, exhausted and frustrating strangers.
Now that we've signed up for a "tour package" which leads to a lifelong journey of learning and growing (with the kids), I ask God for His daily provisions and watch over us as we take things one step at a time. Yes, we particularly need lots of patience and grace, just as our heavenly Father had been graciously putting up with us. ^.^
What do I think of PARENTHOOD? ... Its A Journey of Faith.
"... "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. ..." - 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 (NKJV)
