"Expectation vs. Reality"
Hello reader's and writer's how are you? I hope you guys are doing well and safe. Three days more to go it's already Christmas. Have you done preparing your gifts and done shopping?
My mother-in-law and I already plan for what food we will be preparing for the Christmas eve, and I'm excited to prepare them with her. We still haven't do shopping for the gifts, maybe we will do before Christmas as my mother-in-law wants to bring us to SM Megamall after she received her Christmas Bunos. She is expecting to received it tomorrow.
Anyway enough for that,😅 I will continue to my topic for today.

Yesterday when my mother-in-law told me that my son's half siblings will arrive today, I feel excited. I was happy imagining that my son will be having a playmate and I know he will enjoy the stay of his siblings. Another thing is, I also feel happy when the kids is here, I don't know but I love kids. I love how noisy our house if they are here, as a matter of fact whenever they go, I feel sad and that leaves a day before I can move on with their absence. When I still don't have my son, there were times that I asked a favour to their mom to let the kids stay at home. I don't know but my heart belongs to the kid's ☺️.
Today, my son's half siblings arrived home, their mom bring them early this morning. I thought my son would be happy seeing them as he already meet them twice, but what happen was opposite with what I expected lol. When they arrive my son is already playing, he was actively roaming around inside the house . But the moment he saw them entering the house he stop playing and immediately walk coming to me.
He started noticing them, he looked at them from head to toe and when the kids tried to approach him, he hug me tight to cover his self 😅. The kids mom even tried to carry him but he keeps pushing it's hand away from him and even cried lol.
I thought he can adjust after one hour or more, but the whole day he just keep on crying whenever he saw his siblings. Whenever his siblings tried to play with him, he immediately cry and look for me 😅. I don't know, it's maybe because he don't used to see new faces at home. I am expecting that I can do some work today , as my son will be enjoying playing with them, but it didn't happen lol. The more that I can't do anything as my son don't want to be separated from me. I can't even get a shower as he always wanted me to carry him😅.
At the end of the day, my body is aching 😅. The whole day is so tiresome, but I can understand my son. I know he needs to adjust as he don't used to see them. Maybe tomorrow he can adjust and play with them, hopefully 🙏😂.
Closing thoughts;
Because of my son's behaviour today I realized that he needs to be exposed with new people. But with the current situation, it's hard as we still facing the pandemic. I feel sorry that he find unsafe even he was inside his shell, I feel sad as he found fear's being surrounded with new people. I'm worried for his future if he continue behaving like this. As a first time mom, it's scary as it might affect his growth. But do I do? I want him to be safe, I wish he can adjust soon.
