I thought that I am done with kids, hahahaha; what a joke?
I’m not complaining, I miss kids running around the house
or there would be someone who will greet you upon arriving home or someone who will
accompany me when I go out.
Originally, I have 5 kids of my own. yes, my flesh and blood but since they have a
life of their own; I decided to become a foster parent.
Dhandrew come into my life when he was just five years old
and even though he was not related to me in any way; I become so fond of him.
Fast forward; Dhandrew is now seven years old. Just like
any other kids, he wants to play; watch TV and other stuff a kid would love to
do.
Dhandew is the first boy that we had and then came Gabriel
and then we got a twin boy several months ago.
It’s a happy house but a ramble as well since there are
more things to do and take care of
Dhandrew being the eldest at seven , need to learn a few tricks
on his sleeves.
While children now a day becomes more and more bound to internet,
social media and phones and uses a sense of entitlement instead of responsibility;
I as a foster parent has a responsibility to guide him
As much as we love our children , we also need to teach them
to become responsible adults as well. Our goal is not just them learning
something but to have them learn important life skills while learning as well to be
responsible, perseverance, patience.
What’s nice about Dhandrew is , he is now the little big
helper in the house. At seven years old, Dhandrew has his own task at home.
Here are some of the household chores that Dhandrew can do
but not on a regular basis
Throwing of trash
Every seven o’clock in the evening, he goes out and wait
for the truck that pick up the neighborhood trash. We make sure that he knows
where to stand as to not get hit by cars and we always make sure that he safe.
Folding Wash Clothes
He folds his clothes like shirt and pants plus the socks
Sweeping the Floor
He can now sweep the floor and he’s very good at it
Taking Care of the Babies
He is capable of carrying the babies and we make sure that
there is an older one with them. It is also their bonding moment together.
Cleaning the Table
When he eats with his siblings, they know that they nee to
clean the table and put the dishes on the sink
Washing of Dishes
Dhandrew can wash small dishes like the glass and small to
medium plates as well, we take of the big ones.
We are happy that at seven years old, Dhandrew know how to
help around the house. He may sometimes be grumpy or complain a bit but still
he stills do it and we are happy that we can rely on him on things
Just as we rely on Dhandrew, we also rely on the things that
we use on our home. For washing of dishes, we use Bubble Man dishwashing liquid.
Bubble Man has three variants, the lemon, Kalamansi and the Antibac. You can
purchase it at 32.50 for the 270 ml and 70.00 for the 880 ml. ( depends on the
supermarket where you purchase it)
Of all the three variants, I like the anti bac ; the most.
Since we have babies with us, we want to make sure that we are bacteria free. We have kids and babies in the house and they
too use the utensils and dishes as well. Pans and Pots that are greasy are easy
problems with the Bubble Man.
Bubble Man is also a one stop cleaning tool for us since we
also use it in cleaning the sink, floor and bathroom. With the Anti-Bac variants ,we feel safer plus the ingredients is so gentle on skin
that we let Dhandrew uses it as well. There is no allergies or irritations on
his skin that he is happy to do the washing.
Things we love about Bubble Man Dishwashing Liquid
Its biodegradable
Its gentle on skin
Its affordable and its available nationwide on all leading
supermarket.
