Power Struggles with kids

After spending 2 full days where I was out the door by 830am and back home only after midnight (and this is due for a variety of reasons), on Day 3, I was about to book myself into Tanjong Rambutan (that is our famous local mental asylum). Tired to the bone and still having to keep the kids alive whilst they fought their raging wars, even Godpa Dave was pleased that he was only here for the weekend.

After doing some grocery shopping, I bribed T2 with some chocolate because she refused to sit in her stroller without SCREAMING and I don’t know what else I would have done because this baby can REALLY SCREAM!!!!

So of course, when T1 saw that T2 had chocolate, she wanted some too but I made them share it. I promised T2 that if she sat in her stroller, she could open the chocolate when we got into the car. In the meantime, she was happy to just hold the bar of dark chocolate. And of course, when we got into the car, T1 couldn’t wait to open it. You can’t win.

I instructed T1 to help feed her sister and I instructed T2 that if she wanted to eat chocolate, Che-Che would have to feed her. All good. One last instruction, eat it VERY SLOWLY and SAVOUR EVERY BITE.

Before long, there were already screams. T1 was mad that whilst she took baby nibbles of the chocolate bar since Mama had said to savour it, her little sister was chomping off the biggest bites her little mouth could handle. NOT FAIR!

And T2 was screaming because T1 had control of the chocolate bar and wouldn’t give it to her fast enough whenever her mouth went empty.

Oh, I’m just so glad they are in bed right now.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
Show your support and spread the love!
