Alex who is 25 months now often says Daddy.... working... too much....
It makes me realised that how much time I spend away from my children and Alex seems to think it is not a good idea...
Again, I was working in the studio and Polo just told me when I got home, that Alex has been sitting in his cot and waiting for me to open the door... he will says... oh daddy is home when the front door is open... and he will always says... daddy is not home yet... from where I am reading... it seems the excitement of anticipating me and dissapointed because I am not home yet...
Recently, been helping a friend to do the shoot for her new website and along the shoot, she mentioned that her son broke down in tears and say, mom, can you stop working and come home?
Obviously as parents, we are always thinking that we are making money so we can buy them toys, food and endless things and the future... the child then said to mummy, I don't need any more toys... I can give away all my toys... and please be there for us....
Those statement broke my heart....
As we all try to find happiness and yet, happiness sometime is just in front of our eyes...
It is very difficult to balance work and life so you spend enough time with your children and earn enough money to live a little more comfortable.
I think its time for me to cut back on the hours I spend on my work and spend more time with my children....
It is difficult to say no to an assignment as it is after all, that is what put food on the table... but I guess, we could do with simple meal and live simple and be happy....
Time and Happiness are something money can't buy and I want to see my children grow up... and don't want to miss the moment when they do something.... you can't turn back time....
Lucky for me is that I can take their pictures whenever I want and that is good to preserve some memories and hopefully those are things that they will cherish when they grow up.
Good night everyone....
