Last year this time, I was caught with a newborn baby and had no time to get delightful Christmas gifts. Thankfully a friend of mine had given a shout out of some toy fair going on, in September if I didn't remember wrongly, and I had gotten presents in advance. All I had to do was run out to get some gift wrappers. But armed with a barely two-month-old, I was hardly in the mood for Christmas.
This year, I decided that things are going to be different - Christmas is my favourite holiday - I'm not going to be caught in the last-minute-mad-rush-to-get-some-gifts among throngs of equally hectic shoppers. I don't get a kick out of dashing around to buy presents, I don't enjoy such adrenaline rush, no thank you. So I started preparing early so that I can just sit back and enjoy the festivities with my loved ones during Christmas. Here, I have completed 70% of wrapping the Christmas presents I'm gonna dish out. That makes for a sense of accomplishment in me, and you can say I'm a control freak. I enjoy doing things when I'm not rushed, that's just me when I can have the choice. If I have some extra time on my hands, I'll get going with some handmade cards as well!
Hello! I'd like to be known as Ling in short, aspiring to be those super, wonderwoman-kind of a mom, but in reality just a beginner in this motherhood journey.
As I switch roles between nurturing mom, capable executive, and attractive cum understanding wife, feel free to share your experiences with me.
