Friends without kids (some to the extend of dislike) often ask me if I feel tired when I go home after work and I need to face two little terrors at home. Frankly, who isn't tired after work and who don't wish that they can go to rest and knock out till the next day.
Having kids definitely drains your energy and your earnings. I would say 70% of my salary goes to their insurance, milk powder, diapers, school fee, school bus, toys, snacks and my helper who helps to take care of them. 20% of my salary goes to bills and 10% is for my expenses.
If I am single and without any children, of course I will have more money to spend.
DO I REGRET? They asked.
NO. I answered firmly
Why should I? I guess it's their laughter and smile.
Someone who greets you "mama" when you are back,
someone who wants you to hug when they are feeling unwell,
someone who cry when you are quarreling with their father (Zaylen did that when I quarreled with FATman(dennis) in car.
someone who pester you to buy him 6 lollipops ( I didn't though~)
someone who talk back to you and make you angry yet want to laugh and the list goes on.
I guess those who don't understand are not ready to be parents yet.
It's a short post today as I AM ON LEAVE!! This is my first official leave this year since I left Asus in Jan 2014. I AM GONNA ENJOY! <3
