I knew I would not stay in my city, I would move to another place in France but I could not have imagines I would make my life in another country. Now I am married and I am going with the flow, knowing that maybe one day we will move to my husband country, Egypt.<br /><br />I think deciding to stay with your girls is the best of decision. Childhood memories are the greatest you can offer to your children.<br /><br />Looking forward next Friday.

I enjoyed the story and the link to the history was very interesting. 100% with you, why pack kids off to daycare and work? you would only see them at night and weekends.<br /><br />Malaysia looks not only beautiful and serene, but I'll bet the local cookery is interesting as well.<br /><br />By the way, a few blogs back are photos of the girls, re-look at them and you know you made best decision to raise them yourself.anthony stemkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15666462157746049139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415847947845553634.post-42815057044175042792011-07-30T14:21:55.311+08:002011-07-30T14:21:55.311+08:00Paul Joseph: Thanks for sharing your opinion.

Just love the peaceful life here. <br /><br />Thisisme & kneesandpaws: It is good to have some people understand my decision and why I am doing it. That makes me feel so good. It is not all about have lots of money sometimes. We can find money but we can't rewind our children's childhood. Once u miss it, you can't bring it back!<br /><br />my day in a sentence: I'm glad you have the courage to do so!!<br /><br />ordinary malaysian: Well, i chose universities that offer the course I love. Something to do with chemistry. One of them is University Malaysia Pahang. So, the Education Department offered me the course I love and chose UMP as my university. I could have gone somewhere else but UMP chose me! I thought of returning to Sarawak but it is not easy. We have lots of furniture here and our children are still young. Moving all the way from Kuantan to Sarawak is not very near.

Now I have a life 700 miles away from my family. It's amazing how life takes us to new places. I enjoyed reading about your journey to Kuantan and respect your decision to stay home with your children. I found that each time I "went out to work" I felt a deep longing to be home with my children. So now I work from my home and things are better. We struggle financially but the benefit of being home is a good trade. I wish you all the best!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456360103620523621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415847947845553634.post-6176771702107701442011-07-29T15:12:11.112+08:002011-07-29T15:12:11.112+08:00Hi Fidelia.

My youngest daughter is doing the same (she has one just three and another one 19 months). She says that what is the point of having children, only to leave them early to go back to work! They don't have very much money, but to her it is the children that are important at this stage in her life. It was really interesting to read those things about you today.Southhamsdarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12285980805569582676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415847947845553634.post-16138512452622452212011-07-29T13:40:27.462+08:002011-07-29T13:40:27.462+08:00Judging from the pictures I've seen on this bl...Judging from the pictures I've seen on this blog, Kuantan looks like a beautiful place to live and raise a family.Missed Periodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10343265071637032284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415847947845553634.post-4653631284816611572011-07-29T13:15:57.326+08:002011-07-29T13:15:57.326+08:00I often think about moving to a new location, but ...I often think about moving to a new location, but I think I missed my time. I'm someone who doesn't like a lot of change once I get adjusted and have a set routine. I should have considered the option after graduating college; it's the ideal time to make that kind of change. But I played it safe and moved back home. I wish I had explored other options. Still, I don't think I'll be here forever. I'm open to the opportunities life may present.Paul Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07219724579550337686noreply@blogger.com
