I hardly have any personal ever since Phoebe was born. However, I treasure and need to have the quiet moments all by myself, to do reflections and the things that I like e.g. blogging, painting my toe nails, reading novels / magazines or simply to poo relaxingly, without being hurried by the cries of children. That's motherhood. Hence, you can see from the time stamp in my blog that I usually sleep very late because I want to enjoy the luxury of doing my personal things. I am always being in demand. Everybody wants me - my girl, my boy, my hubby, my parents and my job. Sometimes, I do wish that I can clone myself five times to meet the needs of my 5 'demanders'. That would be nice and the original me will be able to go shopping, do massage / spas, watch movies etc without being disturbed. I think I would enjoy selfhood as much as motherhood.
