Here I am

So my 6 years old and 4 plus years old are in school routine now. Unfortunately they are not loving it all that much, but it must be.

I have at home my 2 years old keeping me company.

But basically we settled into a nice routine of waking up early, even on weekends. I do my shopping a couple of times a weeks while the girls are at school. We take them for eating out once a week and playing somewhere once.

Life seems to be taking a nice pattern. And when I am not being an idiot and go to be early enough sleep I really enjoy my day.

I have started taking better care of myself; yoga my favorite sport and trying to make better food choices, I am not targeting weight loss as of yet, just a healthier me. Since I started taking vitamin B complex and Osteocare daily in addition to my regular multi vitamins I have been feeling much better.

Ok a little incident that happened today with my KG girl. At her school they started selling them sandwiches at the beginning of this year, that is why I stopped giving her one from home. The last few days after Hajj break she has been asking me to send a sandwich with her, and I ignored cos I though she is just being silly. Today she went to school crying because she wanted a home sandwitch and was insisting that they are usually late giving them their food at school and that there is not more shop there to buy from. So I called the school and as it turns out she is right. So I sent her a sandwich and a Croissant, she loves those and I wanted to make it up to her. But in the half hour when I was waiting for the croissant to get here an the chauffeur to take her food to her, was a very nervous anxious time for me, I felt real chest pains during. Just thinking that my little girl is not getting the food she wants, or that she has been feeling down because she is not eating what she wants.

But this got me thinking about all the parents in this world with children they can't feed. How horrible they must feel to see the hunger and need in their babies eyes and not be able to do anything about. How horrible. If i where to erase anything off the face of this planet it would be poverty, time and time again.
