Elva is 30 months old

Elva is 30 months old. 

Its been 2 months since I post, I was busy with work and school until there no time to blog. Sleeping was my priority. 

Elva has grown up a lot, getting more curious at stuffs, talk a lot now. She is the gem in the house, laughter, anger and sadness all were contributed by her. Having really brighten my day, makes me eager to go home and fetch her from school although I could not make it some times due to work.

My new job is quite tiring, need to put lot of time and effort in it so have to sacrifice some time with Elva and Jerlyn because of that. 

I went to Bangkok for a business workshop in June, was quite tiring actually. I did not have much personal time there. But I met some new colleagues form different part of the world which I felt quite enriching as I can get to know different work culture from their countries.  The workshop was fun and it really bond us as a group when learning, but the challenge is how to bring back the learning back to Singapore where people does not appreciate what you are giving training. Maybe I still got alot to learn when comes to giving training. 

Elva told Jerlyn that she wanted a sister or a brother. I wonder if she is really lonely at times where no other kids playing with her. Singapore is known for its difficulties in raising kids due to the higher standard of living and not enough child care centres and teachers to take care of the kids. If so, how can we have another child? This kind of situation does not help much when we want to think for another child. My sister Cyndi she is having her 2nd child at the age of 37. She is more financial stable than me, that why she can afford to do that. But she also took many years of hard work to become financial stable. If we are not financially stable now, are we able to survive with 2 kids? Our mindset and planning needs to be strong.
