Topaz Mommy wrote about one's fear of loving another child. It was never an issue for me. There is always the capacity to love more. My issue was giving each child enough attention and guidance. Could I handle it? With all these thongs happening in my life, how can I balance motherhood, being a wife, a business person and being myself?
I try not to have favorites. I try to treat each child the same way. However, due to difference in personalities and birth order, I really feel that I am prone to have a favorite. Favorite pagalitan, favorite kilitin, et al.
Now that there's another baby coming, I worry again. How can I become a responsible parent to these blessings? Only God can tell.
I am comforted by the fact that my kids love each other the way we showed them. Seeing how these kids care for each other (when they are not fighting) tells me that I must be on the right track.
