Felt rooster I made for my baby for Chinese New Year

It has been almost a month since I last visited myLot. Finally, I am back. I was quite overwhelmed and depressed because I couldn't find myself grounded and peaceful. I thought things would be better after a vacation back to my home town to celebrate Chinese New Year, but it wasn't. Kids fell sick after coming back from the home town, and I am busy making a gift for my eldest son's birthday which is on 26 Feb. (6 more days to go) I am glad I have read some parenting articles that really inspired me, and it seems like my children are not so difficult anymore, so I am back to my normal mode, normal happy mode. Now, I can spend some time online and more time with my children joyfully too. It's going to be end of February very soon, I just can't believe time passed by so quickly, and it seems like I haven't get anything done yet. How has everyone been so far? Hope everyone is doing well. Picture: Felt rooster I made for my baby for Chinese New Year

Yes, that's right. I am learning to treasure every second, live in every minute, be more mindful, so even though time has passed and things have not get done, I am still living happily. Thanks.

I am happy to be back to my online life too. I haven't been visiting ForumCoin for quite some time too, but also did re-visit it these two days, but it seems like ForumCoin is not a place for much interaction about life. I hope I will be able to find some time at LiteracyBase too.

@kaka135 There are some improvements at LiteracyBase. They approve blogs instantly but at payment check for plagiarism or any violation which I think is a good thing. There are also like and dislike options in groups.

I know it is not easy to take care of three children. You are already doing a very good job Sometimes you need to have a break. You know a happy mom is the most important for a family

Raising children is not easy for anyone. Time passes, they grow up and most look back and think it was no so difficult after all.

Yes, it's not easy, but sometimes it doesn't seem too difficult as well. I guess it very much depends on how we are. I always think when I am grounded and balanced, days seem to be so much easier and kids are so much lovelier. I am working hard on myself. I can still remember those sleepless nights I had when my second child was very young. Now I am having these sleepless nights with my third child, but I know this too shall pass.

Hello my friend, I had been gone a while too. I am glad to know that you are feeling okay now and I can understand you with the happenings and the depression. I get it sometimes. Yes, it is amazing time flies, and it is nearly the end of February. I hope that the weather is also good for you there. It is nearly spring here.
