Misc

-My Baby Shower party was last Saturday and it turned out nice. My husband’s cousin who threw party for me did a great job. She is a great host and has a big house with all the facilities to have a great party. My friends and some family showed up and I got lots of cute gifts.
Just two days before the party I and my brother had a big argument with our mom, My mom is a wise woman but sometimes does things that looks so unwise. She became friend with a woman younger than her age who is a big looser. Apparently her dad was passed a way in Iran and they were not in touch for a long time and now she wanted to hire a lawyer in Iran to get her inheritance. My mom knows some one and introduced her to him when he was here on a trip to visit his daughter, they signed an agreement but for the money my mom accepted the responsibility to get money from her friend and send it to him and gave her receipt. She did not discuss this with us. Long story short, this woman seems to be very abnormal and now she is regretting payment to the lawyer and knows my mom responsible for that and have sent a letter to my mom that she will sue my mom unless she pays her back the money and has written lot of lies and accusations towards all of us in that letter.
I and my brother were both blaming her that why she did not consult with us and why she accepted the responsibility in first place. The woman could just send the money directly to lawyer, why my mom got herself involved. Any way she was mad at us because we were blaming her!! The whole argument was not fun at all and my brother brought up other things from his young hood and some family issues! I felt like the whole
Argument is going to a wrong way and tried to stop it! Any way I asked the lawyer to send the agreement and proof of receiving money from my mom so I could send it to that idiot woman and I did. Some thing that in this whole matter was bothering me was that my brother has some anger towards our mom because some issues of the past and whenever he is mad at her for something he just drops every thing on her. I hope I will never have such a situation with my own kids in future!!

-I am getting bigger these days and I try to imagine how will be things when we have our second child. I wonder how I can divide my love and attention between both of them and how I will handle every thing. It must be very challenging. Thinking about it makes me nervous some times!! He will come in less than two months, I better be ready!!

-I have got another recognition award at work for a project that I completed few months a go. The users of project especially the one that ordered the project to our division was very demanding but I was very patient and thorough with what they needed. The funny thing is that I am a lot more patient and calm at work comparing home. It seems that I use all my patience at work and live very little dosage for home. Any way that made me happy. It is good to be recognized and appreciated, it happened especially when I was doubting again that If I should really continue to work when I have the second child. I know my job is a big dignity in life for me and if I quit it I will regret it sooner or later!!!!!!

I was thinking if you are patient at work, you can apply the same things at home too,,, and don't worry about being fair and just between 2 children, your case is even easier because they are both boys. if i find a good article or book , i will recommand you to read it.
take care

Hi Ocean,

Exiting life the next months, especially the pregnancy, everything goes so quick...so much going on in your private world.

The quarrel you and your brother have with your mother must eventually have to do something with love and keeping your mother out of trouble, doesn't it?

You are doing okay I suppose, another award at work and a great baby shower party. Keep that positive feeling. About dividing the love and attention.... I think it's more a matter of attention. I hope you love them equally and be able to give the attention your kids need.

take care,
Jan
