My family is no stranger to financial challenges. If there is one thing I often remind my children, it is “no matter the state of our financial situation, we need to implement some sort of money management or else all that money will be gone in an instant.”

Today I will take the task of listing down the joys of motherhood from the time my kids grew up from being a baby to their adult twenty-something years of age.

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.”

If there is one thing I am proud of my kids (even my departed son), it's that they learned time management. Never were they tardy for school. Never did I ever have to yell at them “Come on, hurry up!” Sure, sometimes it was hard to wake them up but they knew the schedule of each school day and their play time. Their dad may not be a prompt person but you know the kids didn’t have to follow their father’s footsteps. There is no such thing as inherited trait of “being late.”

How did I teach my kids?

When Marielle, my second daughter, announced two years ago that she might be a candidate for magna cum laude, I beamed with pride. Before you think that I am bragging about my daughter’s achievement, there is something you need to know about my daughter, a right-brained, creatively different Alpha child,. She thinks otherwise but she probably doesn’t recall the early years of her learning challenges. For the first six years of her life, I thought she was learning disabled or a slow child. I often compared Marielle to Lauren , my eldest girl. Lauren as a precocious little girl was talking in straight sentences just after she turned one, sight-reading at the age of two years and 3 months, writing her first story called “The Virus,” and playing the piano at four and so much more.

Marielle often stuttered in her speech, and confused left from right. Though she made some progress with her basic reading during nursery, she didn’t do well in phonetics or writing. I didn’t want to pressure her or compare her with her more fluent sister. I accepted the fact that one child may not be smarter than the other until one summer just before she entered first grade.

A quote about family from Joyce Brothers rings so true: "When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses." A painful experience during the holidays reminded me that love of a family is the best gift of all.

Plans for a holiday vacation to Singapore got canceled at the last minute. This vacation was set to enable my husband and I to reunite with my daughter, Marielle, who currently works in Melbourne. She picked Singapore as our meet-up place.
