Little Feet

Ever since I saw Jiahui's baby Nicole crossed her feet while sitting on a chair, I started to train Joey to do the same thing as well. It looks like such a ladylike thing to do!

Surprisingly for me, I only needed to cross Joey's feet against each other twice, and she started to do it everytime she's seated down. Haha... So demure! I love it!

This photo may look a little weird in its orientation, but she was actually sleeping in her sarong and she stuck her legs out like that. Cute eh, those fat toes? Hehe...

Thank God for my mother in law, Tuesdays now are no longer blue for me. :) 

Tuesday is the first day of my work week, and the longest day of the week for me. I have to work from 10am to 11pm and to add on to my tiredness, I have to bring Joey to work with me early in the morning, then Isaiah rushes to my office to pick up the both of us, and he would look after Joey when I am doing admin with my zone leaders. I will then take over looking after her after my zone meeting so that he can concentrate on his zone meeting.

Tuesdays are always super stressful & intense for me, because there are 101 things to be done within a very short span of time. In between, there will be lots of instructions from pastors and adhoc tasks to be completed. Plus, I need to 'evacuate' Joey from the nursery latest around 6.30pm, which added an extra deadline for me. Especially after Isaiah started this new job, it has been virtually impossible for him to rush down to my office by 6.30pm. More often than not, I'd have to bring alot my heavy bags of admin papers, put Joey in her stroller and bring all the barang barang to the meeting venue by myself. It was really tough & mentally & physically very taxing. The worst part of it is that Joey has to stay out with us till 11+pm, sleeping uncomfortably in her stroller, and reaching home way past midnight and not yet bathed. Poor baby, really.

And so, we decided to ask my MIL to help look after Joey every Tuesday so that I can go to work and focus on my work the whole day. At night, we can also have a good time meeting with our fellow CGLs. It has indeed lifted up a great burden off my shoulders! Thank God for my MIL who was so willing to stand in the gap for us. =)

For last Tuesday and today, I felt so liberated! Of course, I missed hearing my baby's laughs & voices the whole day. But, I also could be totally at ease knowing that she is in good hands, and I can focus all my attention on the work that I needed to do. I should have done this long ago lor! haha....
