Work-at-home Mom



I am deleting the word stay-at-home mom from my vocab. There's no such thing. Unless you have a nanny, a maid, a driver, a cleaner, a cook, a teacher who helps with homework hahaha. to top it all off these days we might not work in an office but somehow is running a business of some sort from home! I am a work-at-home mum.

Happy 8th Birthday Arwen!

Happy 8th birthday my sweet darling daughter!

We had a party at home this year. We invited our big extended families and two of your friends - Natasya and Najya from school. We invited Anissa but she didn't come. We had fun. I became the host as well as the entertainer for the kids. Our the theme this year was the Minions!!!

Nadiah, Adam, Redza and Ya actually came for a sleepover the night before - which was fun and a wonderful treat for you!
