The joy of having children

many a times we have the elders say "a family is not a family without children."

Many parents would agree with me that their lives have never been the same (until they grow up and leave the house) since. Their lives are filled with laughters, anxieties, angers and noises. Did I just say noises??

We have two noisy kids at home with superbly loud voices (all thanks to the gao-li-shen I took), two girls who don't behave like girls (even Iggy is more well-behaved).
Two kids who most of the time play together & sometimes fight. Two kids who simply love one another because one looks up to her elder sister and keeps calling che-che and another who loves feeling good/proud about being the da-gar-che.

A cute and funny scenerio in the car : (only short distance from Rivervale Mall to home)
Athena : "A, B, C, D, E, .....Z. Won't you sing with " (pause)
Aricia : Eh Mo !! (Elmo)
2 of them : hee hee hee hee hee
the whole cycle repeats for the next 5-6 times with them looking at one another and laughing

Such joy............

Ya.. sometimes really feel contented by just looking at them. And sometimes pulling our hair out when they get on your nerves.

Oh yes... guess that's why they're called children
