Happy Father’s Day to the man who made everything in my career possible. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He sacrificed his love for photography to pave the way to my online business. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The dancing dad of my children and the plant daddy of my babies! Because I’m such a dork at watering and I always end up killing all the greens at home. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To all you dads out there, Happy Father’s Day! ❤️💕

IS IT 2021 YET? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If there’s one person in this house that’s been affected by this crisis the most, it’s Alphonse. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He loves going out, swimming, strolling in the mall and he started enjoying his therapy sessions. All of a sudden they had to stop and for someone so obssessed with routine he was devastated. But we found a way to make him happy - water! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He loves playing with water and days after he started understanding that he has a new routine and it doesn’t involve going out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He started coping. So did all of us. And we did everything to protect him. Now that the quarantine has started to relax we’re being extra careful. And as much as we’re excited about it, we’re not rushing on going out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How has it been where you are? What businesses have already?

The Rebel. Ever since I was young, I’ve been labeled as such. But back then, it has a negative connotation. People thought I was a terrible daughter. That I don’t heed my parents’ advice. That I’m always the odd one because I don’t fit into the norm of what a typical Asian daughter should be like. They’re right. Except, I wasn’t a bad daughter. I just have a different perspective on things - ✨ I have my own dreams and I want to achieve it. ✨ I don’t want to inherit the family business. I want out. ✨ I will pursue my own happines no matter what people say. DOUBLE TAP if you’re a fellow rebel! ❤️🙌🏻

Raise your hand if you still exercise these days! ✋ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I used to walk Alphonse around the neighborhood back in Singapore. This simple daily task miraculously helped him escape another surgery associated with his condition. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then 10 months ago, Kris and I signed up for a gym membership which I never anticipated I'd come to love! And COVID happened. We coped up by doing simple squats, crunches, and leg exercises we learned from our training coaches. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thankfully, my existing neck and shoulder pain haven't attacked me viciously yet. But I can feel it sometimes and when I do, I just workout using my simple home routine to keep the pain at bay. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Adjustment is hard. Losing control is hard. But in the end, we just have to do what we can to keep everyone home safe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ TELL ME: What's your favorite home workout routine? Cleaning, cooking and feeding your children not counted. 😂

Grow faster by helping others. Tap ❤️ if you say “YES” and agree with me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Surprised? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Contrary to popular belief, sharing what you know isn’t going to get you more competition! Sharing allows you to be seen as an expert, an authority in your niche. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Most people think when they start sharing, they’d be giving their knowledge away and more people will try to do what they do and in turn, they’ll have more competition. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Trust me, if that’s the kind of mindset you have, it’s time to think things through. Because you’re only doing more harm to your business than good. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➊ Want growth? Show up! ➋ Want followers? Share knowledge! ➌ Want sales? Help others. Now tell me, which one are you going to do first, 1, 2 or 3? 📷 @craftedbydq

I wish that someday you'd be able to read books on your own, enjoy the silence because you're tired of the noisy streets, the passing vehicles, or your sisters' laughter. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In your own very quiet little world, I hope you're having fun. It's awfully quiet, my love but someday you will be able to hear too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For now, enjoy flipping book pages to soothe your senses, tearing books apart to strengthen your muscles, or browsing through the library like it's your playground. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I know you miss this place but if I can't bring you to the library, I'll bring the library to you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Double tap if you're a book lover like Alphonse! How many books have your purchased since this crisis started? #bookhoarder

Quarantine feels... Have you ever felt so exhausted just by being at home and hearing everyone call you “mom?” Not that I’m complaining but I can certainly use a break when I’m in the bathroom. 😂 Double tap if you can relate! 👋🏻 #tweenanigans
