Christmas and the New Year went by and before we know it, we're just a mere 16 days away from the Lunar Chinese New Year! Amidst the festive preparation (actually its just spring cleaning the house and shopping for new clothes), the tooth fairy and flu bug caught up with En and Xuan respectively. 6 emerging teeth and an ever runny nose, my gosh!!! So there goes my festive mood again...
When a child is not well, everyone around him/her gets busy attending to his/her needs. When you have twins or multiples, its more like engaging in a guerrilla warfare when the kids are unwell at the same time. Surprise raids take place once every 30 minutes after midnight. And that ear piercing, screeching sound of your teething toddler wailing "out of the blue" just makes you want to duck under your blanket forever.
Sleep deprivation is driving me insane. Forget new clothes, grooming, visitation plans, gatherings, etc. All I want for this festive season is my 2 hours of sleep...
