Seriously, we have never felt more liberated. You might think we must be crazy but it's true! The whole atmosphere at home just feels different and the kids too, seemed happier! We no longer have to endure the presence of a stranger and I dun have to keep worrying about my kids being ill treated! Dear probably was the happiest of all! He has never liked the idea of having a maid and after 3 years, he's glad it's all over.
Life has definitely changed, afterall, we had 3 maids over the 3 years. I have never done any chores these 3 years and it's a big step for me! Initially it was tough, sacrificing my gaming time an tv time to do ironing or moping. If I said I never looked back, I'm lying! But after a week when all routines fell in place, it's easier. Everyone helped in one way or another, so we are more united in a sense too! The kids are more independent and have taken more responsibilities over themselves. You might think we'll have less time with them since we have to do chores and all that, wrong. This is one area we will never compromise. With or without maid, the boys are our first priority. Their fixed story time remains, their fixed activity time remains..everything that we set out to do as a family, remains.
I'm not encouraging everyone to go maidless.. I'm just saying its possible to live without that stranger even with 3 small children! Ask us if we plan to have a maid in the future to do cleaning.. All I can say is, we dun have luck with maids so.. Oh well.. :)
