Note to the Daddy………..

Please always be wise saving your money in this coin bank so that we can have our next holiday trip 😀

Hi dads, all of you have an important role in shaping the character of your children and give your children a wonderful childhood for your kids!

“Walk With Me Daddy”

Walk alongside me, daddy
and hold my little hand.
I have so many things to learn
that I don’t yet understand.

Teach me things to keep me safe
from dangers every day.
Show me how to do my best
at home, at school, at play.

Every child needs a gentle hand
to guide them as they grow.
So walk alongside me, daddy –
We have a long way to go.

Happy Father’s Day to all Daddy around the world.

“I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father’s protection.”

 Sigmund Freud –

Daddy + Children = Best Friends Forever

“The conscience of children is formed by the influences that surround them; their notions of good and evil are the result of the moral atmosphere they breathe.” -Jean Paul Richter

I just heard a story about a family which is broken apart because of the mother’s big influence to her children. Well, I share this with the purpose to remind all mother and father  (including me, my self, of course! ) who stay at home and rise their children to be careful with what we say.

“A child miseducated is a child lost.” -John F. Kennedy-

This is really happen, and I shocked and cannot believe it when I heard this story from some one. I will just summary the story. There was a mother who always bad mouth the husband in front of her two children since the children young and the result, the children hate the father. The mother and the kids hate the father. Now that his children grows up and married. Though the younger child has reconciled with the father but the older one, still hates the father until now and always say bad things about the father.

Well, we have to be careful with our mouth, it will really give big impact to our children. As for me, most family I know, the mother will stay at home and take care of their children and the daddy go to the office and work. So that the time that the mother spends with the kids are more than the time that the father spends with the kids. Kids will have strong bonding with the mother. I feel pity to that family, especially with the kids who grow up in hatred, moreover, if they hate their own parents.

Understand that between husband and wife will have some clashes sometime, but it doesn’t mean that we have to implicate kids in our problem. Kids need both, daddy and mommy. I believe that all daddy who go to work will also longing their children, especially who work far away from their homes. We know someone who work only as a waiters, once he told us that he missed his children so much. He worked overseas and his salary is not really much so that he cannot any how going back to his country to visit his children. He liked to talk to my kids and played with them when we have lunch or dinner at that restaurant.

We as the mother should understand and appreciate that our husband go to the office and  work not for themselves but for us and our children.

I might not be a perfect mom as well, but I really want to always learn. I always try my best to maintain the close relationship and strong bonding between the father and my kids. We should make our kids to have a good impression about their parents.

Some of what I do to make the kids having a good bonding with their daddy:

  1. I always try to find a time when I can bring kids to my husband’s office area for having simple and quick lunch together.
  2. I always persuade my husband to spend time with the kids on some special occasions, such as: kids’ birthday, children’s day, Christmas, Valentine day, Father’s day, etc.
  3. I always remind kids that they are so lucky as their father willings to take leave and spend time with them.
  4. I also sometime left the kids with my husband (without me) for few hours so that they will have strong bonding.
  5. On the father’s day and their father’s birthday, I will help kids to prepare something for their daddy.

It just something which is simple that we can do to make our kids know how their daddy love them, their daddy has to go to work everyday for them but still willing to spend time with them.

I also can see how much my husband love JJ and TT, and I really want him always become my kids’ best buddy and also set a good role for them. Indeed, my husband is JJ and TT’s best friend, they play together, spend time together and kids always be very happy every time see the daddy coming back home. They even very happy whenever I bring them to have a quick lunch with their daddy.

I really learn something from the story above. My purpose to write this post is to remind us, you and me as a mother to become the best connection between the daddy and children. Make them become best friends. Make the kids so proud that they have a very good daddy, let them know that their daddy loves them.

Yes, the daddy is kids’ best friend, don’t make them become enemy, moreover when we know that the daddy really loves his children.

“No influence is so powerful as that of the mother.”
-Sarah Josepha Hale-

I love my PAPA

JJ: ” I love my Papa”

TT; ” I love my Piapia (special name for his daddy)

My kids have a very good bounding with their father. I am glad that their father is willing to spend time to play with kids before they go to bed. Every day 🙂

On kids’ birthday he will take leave and we will spend time together going somewhere to celebrate kids’ birthday.

On TT’s birthday, last month, we spent time together at the Singapore Zoo. Kids are very happy, and they even rode the elephant for the first time. They love to see the map.. They think it is an adventure time. They will spend time to read the map with their daddy and will decide together which animal they plan to see next.

My kids should be grateful having Mr. Papa as their daddy. Not all daddy are willing to spend time with their kids on weekdays because some of them are very busy with their jobs. I believe that some of them also really want to spend time with their family, but they have no choice because they have to work hard for their families.

Mr. Papa will also spend his time every night with kids at home. Play with them, read the story for them, create his own story and sometime will ask the kids to sing the songs for him and will make it as it is on the show.

Mr. Papa will also spend sometime to having lunch with us, and will have a short walk with us before he come back to his office.

Fathers have a very important role in our kids’ growth, especially in their character’s growth. Kids will see how father love their mother. They will learn from their father. Yes our kids really need their father as their figure in their lives.

 

===== HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO ALL FATHERS ======

Father’s love and bond to his sons

JJ and Daddy

Like some other father and son relationship, JJ and TT have a good relationship with their father. They love to play with their father and so does their father.

Despite on his busy days in the office during weekdays, their father still willing to spend time with his kids after office. Every weekend is the best time for the kids to spend the whole day with their father. He will shower the kids and also spend time to feed the kids, play with the kids and read story for the kids.

Sometime my husband will ask JJ and TT, “Do you love Papa?” and then they will answer him “Yes Yes Yes” But somehow they want to tease his father and say No No No and then they will laugh together.

TT and Daddy

Recently my husband was busy with one job, though he is doing this job from home, it makes him almost has no time with the kids. But still he spends few minutes to play with the kids. One day he said that he miss to play with the kids, but I can understand that there is a due date for his job so he has to do his job. I know he loves his sons, and I know that the kids also love their father.

There are some people said to me that to raise, teach and taking care of the kids are mother’s jobs. Father’s jobs are working and give a good financial for the family. Some fathers even go home and first thing that they want to do is read the newspaper, watch the TV, do their job or may be read the book. They don’t realize that the kids long to play and spend time with them.

Therefore for fathers who read this post, if you have not really spend time with your kids, please spend time with your kids regardless on your busy time. Your kids really want you to play with you because they love you. It’s not too late yet… Appreciate this moment because this moment will never come back 🙂
