A new Adventure and mission!

Hi All...

I am starting a new blog(finally!) which focuses on vegetarianismhood(if there's such a word)  after being asked especially by vege and non-vege parents alike on how to bring up their kids in a meatless diet for a good sense (with all the green reasons as well as contaminated meat etc)...

I was sharing my ideas and thoughts with a mutual friend(who's been a vegetarian herself for more than 20 years I think), and she said why not! And we have some thoughts about sharing and putting up recipes, ideas, information about vegetarian for the benefits of those who are interested in a Meatless/Plant-based diet.

So stay tuned and keep a lookout for our new b

log site:http://healthyvegelife.blogspot.com/

Currently is still "UNDER CONSTRUCTION". However those who are interested to be part of the Contributors Team for this blog can email to me: vegemolly@gmail.com/alohamolly@gmail.com.

Hopefully this would be a practical and fun platform for all IT savvy, young parents and anyone who are interested on the vegetarianismhood...hehe...

Okay...let's hope this site would grow and expand happily, healthily and in a much organised way as the site theme says: H2o... ;)

Emotion Management for effective Relationship and Communication

How often we heard of Emotion Management? I am sure we heard of IQ, EQ...

That day I was pondering on emotion management when I was communicating with my daughter and DH.

Hmm...lately my little KY has been catching each and every phrase I used, not to mentioned picking up the emotions I am having along...phew..so I am trying to remind myself every now and then not to let my anger or frustration to overtake my "teaching" session with her...

Even during my conversation with my DH and others...sometimes without realising our emotions seems to overtake our senses...

If we can just stop a second, take a deep breath and connect with our inner self/soul(so-called keeping our emotions in check), the outcome of each communication and thus our relationship will certainly improves.

It is not easy but I am going to put this as part of my 2009 task list....first starting by:

1. No shouting/speaking loudly - Replace with speaking with respect for everyone esp. DH n DD

2. If frustrated, sit back and relax, keep quiet, don't speak with anger - "Silence is Golden"

3.  No finger-pointing - Everyone is responsible just solve it and make peace

4.  Laugh and have fun more often

5.  Hug and love more

Yippee...gonna stick this on my mind n fridge haha...

Cheers! All THE BEST!

Tips and Tricks to Effective Parenting: 2nd Month Of Pregnancy

Tips and Tricks to Effective Parenting: 2nd Month Of Pregnancy

Recovering from Dental Surgery

Dear folks!

This will be a short update...as I am in the midst of recovering from my first part of Dental Surgery to remove my wisdom tooth...

I went to govt. clinic in the hope to remove my two wisdom tooth which had decayed....been delaying the visit due to pregnancy and breastfeeding(as they would prescribe antibiotics before and after from my past experience 2 years back when i remove the one on my bottom left side).

To my dismay they would only pluck the top one and leave the bottom one till the end of next month after X-ray is done......i thought i can have it gone all at one go...haih....

But after bleeding non-stop(with lotsa blood coming out) whole day yesterday and still bit more today...I told myself..luckily they removed only one..if two at the same time..I wonder how much blood i would lost during this period of time....(plus having my "auntie visit" at the same time..)

But i do found out something...perhaps breastfeeding and av has made the blood coming out more than other people..hmm..

Anyway I have made enough preparation(reading the net on how to care after surgery) to prepare a faster recovery this time..been diligently taking Vit. C before and post-surgery....seems to work! THanks to my PHARMACIST friend...HuiChin!

And keep my finger crossed I should be painless and well today(the second day) and hopefully the next visit to remove the bottom one would be fast, bearable and recover promptly too!

Wish me luck! :)

Siblinghood

Last weekend I was with my two kids for 3 full days as the babysitter is "on leave" and my hubby happened to be away for training as well...

I was for the first time perhaps spend some good quality time with my two babies(age 7mths = and 2 yrs 6 mths old)....somehow I see the difference between the two of them....their growth and development....I am not sure whether it is a coincidence or what..but somehow having an older sibling does makes the younger ones grow amazingly faster compared to an only child...

My son seems to response, laugh, and learn faster with the sister playing with him all the time...haha...not to mentioned that he managed to picked up his sister's(KY) screaming skills as well or rather she does sound like "screaming" when she sings loudly...I guess to a two year old...they still can't differentiate or control their volume just yet....

So it is a fruitless effort on my side to get her to sing softly or to speak softly when the brother is zzzzzzzzzz......

So parents out there...if you are contemplating whether to add one more kid to your only child...this is what I can share...having a sibling as my best friend used to said is a gift from God! Having a lifetime companionship and "siblinghood" if there's such a word for it!

This reminds me ...when is the last time i have a cuppa and chat with my siblings ?? :) 

Happy Siblinghood....!

CNY and my thoughts...(soon to come)

First of All, I would like to wish everyone Happy Chinese New Year...

I have a good and enjoyable CNY this year...travelling back to my hometown visiting people i have not seen for at least 2 years....if not more...

Meanwhile, I would like to share my thoughts on some lessons I learnt during this short CNY trips:

Part 1 : Siblinghood

Part 2 : Emotion Management for effective Relationship and Communication

Part 3 : CNY visiting and kinship

Part 4 : Experience and stimulus- essential part of living an inspiration and guided life

Stay tune for my updates on the topics above!
