Weekend Reflections: Creating your Destiny

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Weekend Reflections Creating Destiny

Compass

This week has been a really reflective one for me. I had been reading the book Design your own Destiny and been reflecting on my own life and the direction I have had been following. It has been slightly more then 2 yrs since I have been on NPL to be home with the kids. Even though I am very happy with the current arrangements I still think that there are certain areas in my life that needs further adjustment.

My focus has always been on the kids and family and now I’m realigning it to spend more time focusing on areas within me that needs further development. There are still days which I feel that I SHOULD have done much more and am unsatisfied at the rate of progress of projects which I am working on.

There is still some imbalance in the spirituality and physical department. I’m need to deepen my relationship with GOD and also really do something about the weight loss which has stagnant since June. I also feel that it is time that I do some adjustments to my own life goals. It is also time for me to teach Monkey boy on how to work on his life goals too.

Even though he is only eight at the moment I feel that he too should learn how to create his own life goals and work towards them too.

Are you creating your own Destiny too?

Weekend Reflections: What is your must have foods?

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Weekend Reflections weekend reflections

Ham and Eggs

Do you have a must serve staple food in your weekly menu? Is there a must have food that the kids request over and over again? The boys love eating ham and egg. We serve this as one of the dishes for dinner quite regularly during our weekday dinners. It is fast and tasty to eat with rice or noodles.

The kids love eggs so I cook variety of eggs for them throughout the week. Sometimes I fry the egg sunny side up, scrambled or have it poached. On other occasions I make chawanmushi if we are having Japanese food that evening. We normally have egg as one of the dishes together with a side of vegetables. The kids are not really meat lovers but I do make sure that they do get chicken and fish to eat at least 2 -3 times a week. I also try to ensure that they have a balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables.

I would like for the kids to try out a great variety of foods however they are not as adventurous and still quite young I am holding back cooking more spicy and differentiated foods for them to eat.

What do your kids love to eat?
