A Week Without Lucas


My job requires that I travel occasionally.  Lately though, "occasionally" has turned into "quite a bit".  I traveled to three different cities this past two weeks and didn't see Lucas for an entire week.  It was, by far, the longest time I was away from him since his birth.

I have to admit that despite knowing that I will miss Lucas, I too was looking forward to the trips.  I was looking forward to nights alone in a hotel without having to wake up in the middle of the night to change Lucas' diaper or feed him.  But halfway during the trip, I already found myself aching to go home and yearning to be with my son.

It was difficult.  I couldn't sleep and I still ended up waking in the middle of the night.  I missed my son terribly!

Next time, if my trip lasts for more than 3 days, Lucas comes with me!

About This Blog

This is where I document my day-to-day as mother. Every single day with my boy is a new experience, a new adventure for us. If, in the future, the universe will not allow me stay to tell my boy how I feel for him every single day, my journals will be here--a living proof of my unconditional love and devotion to him as his mom.

About Me

My photo
I am happily married and a mom of one. I am working full-time as a Director, Software Business & Integration of a San Francisco-based software company called LiveNote, owned by Thomson Reuters. Being a mom is to me an adventure in itself. I consider it a full-time job and a rather challenging role. But it is also the most rewarding job of all. What I find most exciting about motherhood is that everyday means something new and exciting. And it's hard not to document these things! So here's my little journal of motherhood. Someday, I will look back and read everything I've written here and marvel at how much I have grown and changed as a person, as a mother!
