“Time is a thief, enjoy your day as if it’s your last”. I just read this quotation on a post and gave me some thoughts to ponder.
Today, I just want to share with you my dear hiver friends our sweet moment last Sunday afternoon, just the four of us. I admit we have been busy managing our business for the past weeks and we forget to have a quality time with our children. That’s why last Sunday afternoon we decided to have a fun time at the mall and enjoy ourselves together with our children.
My first born always tells me that he wants to go to the park, and I said to him we will go on weekends and it turns out that we can’t able to schedule it because we have to buy some stuffs for our business. It was before we have our own business we would go to the mall or park every weekend that’s why it was already in his mind that every time my husband had a day off, he would think that we will go outside. I felt guilty about being busy but of course we are doing it because we wanted to give our children a future that they deserve, so we are doing our very best to make some money and invest our time just to provide for them.
The quotes that I read reminded me that it’s okay to take a rest and enjoy our life for a while. It can also help us refocus and relax again after so many days being busy.
We decided to stroll at the mall and buy some stuff for ourselves first before going at the indoor playground. It’s raining a little bit that’s why we just gone to the mall, maybe next time when the weather is good, we will go to the park again.
There are a lot of sale items today at the mall, but even if it’s sale, I need to control myself from buying and I really think first before buying something if it’s necessary or not. So, we just had some window shopping for now, maybe next time if we have a budget, haha.
My son was so excited that he runs towards the cars, it feels like decade for him to ride this car again, haha.
While they are enjoying their selves, I bought some “siomai” at one of the food carts inside the mall.
After minutes of riding those cars, we decided to go at Kiddie Trampolines House. There is a slide and some balls, and also puzzle games that the children would love and enjoy. The entrance fee is about 1.5 HBD per kid for 30 minutes and adults are free for every child. My husband decided to join them inside, because every time we go to an indoor playground it’s always me, but this time I told my husband to go with them, it’s his first time actually and as I take pictures of them, I can’t help myself but to smile because they are really enjoying and they are very happy right now. There are also dinosaur toys inside which my first born really likes.
After our time at the mall my husband bought some stuff for our refrigerator, and we are left at our tricycle. I bought some juices and some street foods for my kids.
We really had a fun time for a while, after weeks being busy. It’s really important that we make time for our kids because time was really a thief, we can’t control it and someday our kids will become adults and soon will have their own life. That’s why, we will always make quality time with them, spend every moment as if it’s our last. That’s all my dear hiver friends of this community. I hope you have a wonderful day.
