School Holiday Thoughts….
For parents who have children in “big school” as my kids call it… we understand the challenge of waking up in the early morning darkness… and at times dealing with tantrums before school… and many of us feel that it is a groundhog day over and over until the “School Holiday”…
As parents, we thought, YES!!! we have an hour more to sleep and kids will behave themselves and give us, parents, that 1 precious hour of “sleep”.
Guess what?
They wake up earlier than school days and start their “party”…
I am sure many of you can relate…
One thing strike me very hard this morning is, yes, our children may feel “liberated” from school… but for some reason, I felt that I have not done much for them… and understandably the guilt sets in…
Lets face it, as much as we think we want to spend MORE time with them, they have their own things going on… so the time we spend with them actually rather limited.
Yes, we can bring them out for things that makes them happy… however, looking back… what do we have to remember of them? how do they want to remember us when they grow up?
Like investment, it only pays off many years down the road.
Imagine we never take those first steps in investing in their memories… I call it, emotional bank account… How do we bank in those emotion bit by bit and allow them to remember us when they have their own family… in short, what kind of role model are we hoping our children to become?
Lucky for me, I have the skills to capture what I want to remember of them and of course how I want them to remember their childhood as well as with us…
Sure, in the digital age, we have those softcopy which we hold dearly… personally, I don’t remember much of what I shoot a month ago… My answer to my own need is to have them display…
These are some of our memories with our children…
I work so hard every single day and I love to come home and surround myself with happy memories of my children… I don’t think it is too much to ask…
Give me a call if you would like to make use of my skills for your family too…
