Peeing on bed

The next step of his milestone......while some of my friends having no difficulties with that, i have heaps!


When he was a baby, he didn't care whether he was wet or dry, it made me glad.....but now, he is still like that and I don't like it!!!


very difficult teaching him to get up when he wants to pee, what i'm doing now is setting my alarm and get up every 2 hours just to ask him, whether he wants to pee or not!!!!


His problem is he is too lazy to get up and go to the bathroom, even i have get him up every 2 hours!


He once didnt pee on bed for 6 times and got his reward, but again repeated!!! so we agree to put his favorite toy - Tyrannosaurus Rex- away and no playing with it until the next day IF I find him dry. 


I tried to find bed sheet with dinosaurs on it, but couldn't find it!
I told him not to drink too much - I should't do this i know
I gave him a spoon of honey- people said honey absorbs water from body


My mom told me that this is the bad effect of diapers! could be i bet!


Maybe the only problem is he is not ready yet, he is 3yr5mo


My tips for mums: buy a powerful hairdryer (i use this hahahhaa)

What God Hath Promised

God hath not promised skies always blue,
Flower strewn pathways all our lives through;
God hath not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.

But God hath promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, undying love.

God hath not promised we shall not know
Toil and temptation, trouble and woe;
He hath not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden, many a care.

God hath not promised smooth roads and wide,
Swift, easy travel, needing no guide;
Never a mountain rocky and steep,
Never a river turbid and deep.

Annie Flint (1919)

Mummy...a thought

You will never know how deep you can love someone until you have a child but 
You will also never know how big you can get upset until you have a child


Sometimes reading heaps of articles make me sick!  
I just wanna know other's opinions about my boy's problem but then I find out that too many 
opinions are confusing!
It seems that I still have so many homeworks to do.
It seems that I have to teach him many things in shorter time.


Sometimes it brings dissatisfaction by the way I'm teaching him


But....It just a thoght!


I know that no body is perfect, my son not and I'm either


I know that I can't compare my son to others, I can just compare my son to his self before.


I know that every children growing with their own pace, so stop pushing!


I know all those facts


Maybe what mummy needs the most is seeing the strength while developing the less one is the next.


My tips for mums, do share with your friends when you feel stuck or boring in educating your love one and be thankful to God because when you think like I think, it means that we have our child to think about while many doesn't have.

Traveling Note- Bidadari Island

Last holiday, September 4th if I'm not wrong.....We travelled by boat to Bidadari Island. Just 25minutes away from Jakarta. An escape from our beloved crowded city-Jakarta. As we run a restaurant we can manage holiday ourselves. We opened and worked hard when the others enjoy holiday and it's our turn to have a great holiday with lower price hehehehehe 


I did a quick search on the internet to get some information, of course it was the time for Mr Google helping us. We planned the holiday just a day before. We first planned to go to Tidung Island but it takes more or less 2,5 hours by boat and it is an island with citizens and it's a new holiday destination so they don't have even an inn to stay. With my 3yo son NO, THANK YOU.


So we decided to take the nearest island from Jakarta. The ticket was Rp 265.000,00 included return ticket and lunch - buffet. The ticket is valid from 3 years up. When the salesgirl saw my son, Noah, she asked how old he is. I answered 3 yo, she said:"Make him stand". After she saw him, she said: "OK, He does't have to pay" Yeahhhh great! hahahaha he looks like 2 yo boys. I'm sad about this but still be grateful for some condition.


Bidadari Island is a resort island, only for holiday destination and managed by private company.
We can walk the island for around 30 minutes. The sands not white and a bit dirty. The food was bad, we were in the island but no seafood for us???? the shore full of rough coral. We insisted ourselves to enjoy the sea and we made our feet hurt and we had to carry our boy passing those sharp coral to reach the sea which was not blue. We could see the tiny fish using google but we have to really pay attention. 


There were many sea urchin. A guy kept searching the sea urchin around using something like a spear. But we are unlucky, my husband got stabbed on his feet. It's badly hurt and to get rid of it, you need an empty soda bottle and all you have to do is hit your feet with the bottle on the hurt area until you don't feel hurt anymore. If you don't feel hurt anymore it means the sea urchin has crashed inside, you're safe!

We swam on the sea for 2 hours and we got tanned. After swimming on the sea, we swam on the kids pool. Lucky that I brought him a float so we enjoy the swimming time a lot. Exhausted, Noah slept when I took a bath and when my husband put him on the table covered by our clothes, he just slept!


He enjoyed playing with sands a lot. We just had fun.


The condition of the beach not really good but when we decided we want to value our holiday, we could have great holiday! After all the most  important thing was we spent time together and we had grateful feeling.


My tips for mums: When you plan the holiday, prepare for the worst, e.g. the place is not like on the brochure. Don't forget the sun block. Bring snacks and drink bottle. Don't leave the float. Also bring the sand toys. Extra clothes is a must, even if you don't need it you can use it for other thing, for me used for his sleeping layer. The most important thing is a joyful heart! When you arrived at your destination, you can choose whether you can get upset with the condition or just enjoy the time with grateful heart.
