Thanks a lot guys for watching todays video. Our heart goes out to all parents working hard to provide a better life for their children while doing their best to make time for them. It's not easy balancing the two. We pray that God grants you the energy and grace to balance all aspects of your life. We are in this together ❤️ Baraka ❤️
Yes she has a reason to feel that way especially when you expect to see your baby's reaction and not baby's alone even wife or husband I understand Milly correctly and I feel her, Milly it's very normal take it easy and all you're doing is for Taji plus I have to say mostly you've been there for him 🥰🥰🥰
It's always hard in such situations n in line with my email i kindly request you recheck n give a reply,i understand Milly very well n i hope as taji grows his reactions will change for better.
Hey Milly, my son now is 15 years old, we have never parted ways until he was 11 years old when I had to move to USA for green pastures, you can never be 100 % available but any time you have with him make it count, I never new I will leave my son, and now I cry every day but when I remember our past experiences and fun i smile coz I know I gave it all. At this young age,this is where memories are most made, so make use of them. Mich love.
Left my kids at 1yrs na 2yrs for a job in Europe.. And I cried every time I visited home.. They've now grown 14 and 15 yrs... But I still miss and cry...
I love how kabi is taking his place as a hubby and assuring milly that she is a good mum and she is doing a good job😭😭😭 You are doing a good job as parents 👏👏👏👏
I feel like that is a phase many children go through. Mine used to ignore me when i get back from work in the evening. Then after a while it ended on it's own....it is normal...keep assuring him of your love and be confident that you are doing a great job.
Best advice ever,,esp if it's within Kenya,, babies love what you give them most,yes you maybe working hard to provide a good future for him but he might end up loving the future you are providing more than you the parents,,,,it's just a kalesson he needs some extra time with mummy and daddy
I remember listening to Janet mbugua's Interview sometime back as to why she left her job at the media houses and she said she had observed the way her son behaved when she got home and realized she was becoming a stranger to her kids..
I cry daily but it's something I have to so especially being a single parent. God gives me the strength to carry on daily n I know one day I will be with him n will never have to leave
My prayers goes out to all the children who are left behind and mummies pass away leaving them without that mother's love coz it can never be compared to any other love ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Am stay at home mom too If you have a supportive patner just stay with the kids dnt look at what people will say or go with the trend just do you They will grow it's not like they are stagnant.thn we can chase the money For now let's make memories and raise our kids it will have a big impact on them in the long-run Not dissing The moms who work thou 🤗
Same here, sometimes you will look around ur home en feel if u were working,you could help around with this or that but then again everything has its reasons the right time will come.
Travel with him and the nanny as much as u can. Sometimes we parents sacrifice alot, i remember crying every day when i had to go back to work after 3 months of maternity leave.
You have to make serious choices especially when they are young. I sacrificed a whole lot when they were younger that I may not loose them later. That meant less money in the account. Now that they are older in teenage and beyond, we are friends. It's not about balance, it about family. Tough I know, bit worth it.
On a positive note..he is reacting like that because he knows and feels safe about your love for him..that's why kids that age throw tantrums or behave so ..so in essence it means he knows you love him unconditionally that's why he is expressing his feelings...that said I realised a long time ago children do not equate provision to love...love for them is about the memories you create and the time you spend together so normalise that.. I am kenyan living in UK and I quickly realised we hassle a lot and confuse that with meaningful time...here because there is no luxury of househelps you have to plan everything around your kids..your work your holidays etc you can't separate the two ...you normalise everything around your kids in your life..I have grown to enjoy the time spent with my kids and kujilelea... so just be brave he already knows he is loved now you just need to normalise your routines in a way that accommodates him
I feel you Milly this is exactly how my daughter welcomed me after a four day work trip, she even cried and didn't want me to hold her. Have never been heartbroken 😭😭 like that day
This so emotional I can imagine ,wah knowing that I will get to see ma kids after 2 yrs from now cox of job ..bt it's nt that I would ave wanted to b far frm them bt circumstances do force someone to b away from them cox u want to provide for them,may God always protect our kids
4 days and you are crying 😭😭😭 you make us cry more ,,,,,2 yrs now abroad and another more one yr,,,ndio niende home😢niliacha my kids first born na 5 yrs,,, second,,,,,3 yrs,,,, even we talk but that mother love,,,ak it's so painful ,,,,,umenifanya nimelia,,,,but we leave all to God
Kids have feelings just like adults. Sometimes you just don't feel like for example hugging someone or doing something and this is same with kids. The boy didn't feel like it at that moment and that's okay, let him be. This doesn't mean he doesn't love or he didn't miss you while away. He did, he was just not in the mood. I think we should learn to respect how kids let out their emotions especially when they can't express themselves.
My thoughts. It may be difficult to go with him everywhere coz he's still young and the change if climate.just create time with him na place zenye unaweza enda na yeye you can
l feel Milly cant believe av really cried with her,but now that leaving him behind is part of your job ,just have courage,and pray for him always and especially when a away
This is emotional I’ve been away from my kid for more than 2yrs now and every time I talk to her on the phone I cry! I miss her sooo much and now coz of covid it’s hard to travel home!😭😭😭😭😭
It's natural Milly, I stay in Mombasa and my daughter's in Voi and am telling you sometimes I talk to them on phone and I cry Sana just imagining wato that far
May God protect us and our children back home us mum's who we go to gulf countries for greener pasture leaving our children back home for 2 to 3 years🙏🙏🙏
Now can you imagine I left my kids about three years now .how I miss to go back and to hug them 😭😭to spend time with them .but our God is faithful day itafika tu
😭😭😭I've really cried when I remembered I left my gal of 2yrs to go and hustle in Doha the first month I will make a video call and she would not talk to me yet am told she used to say mum left me 😭😭😭@milly wa Jesus hugs mami I feel you
As a parent of adult children who are very busy with their lives, I am no expert. That said one VERY important lesson I have learnt is the important of balance. Don't lost yourself in your children cos you will be angry/hurt when they cannot make the same sacrifices for you. Love them and be present but remember one day they will grow up and leave you and for a while they will not value your relationship as much. It is ok. Be a good steward of what God has given you. Otherwise, loved the show. Enjoy parenting.
@@THEWAJESUSFAMILY am also a victim here like, I started crying the very moment you started crying ....waaah,,,it has never been easy for me since I left home to Dubai in search of greener pastures for both my son and mom. I cry everyday aki....sometimes I see myself as a bad mom 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭....aki,,,,😭😭😭 naeza tu sema ni God hunifanya navumilia aki. How I wish naeza pata job poa kenya yenye itanilisha na ilishe mtoi wangu but, God knows it all.
This video make me cry.. am abroad and my son is in my home country.. i do really miss him but i have to fight for his future.. sometimes when i talk to my son he refuse ..you make me cry 😭😭
This really made me cry coz I am far away from my kids they r with my mom and as working mom this breaks my heart because my kids are 2 and 3 years old they exited when they see me on phone but this has made cry coz am afraid of how my children wil react after see me after 4 months 😢 💔 😞
Milly I can feel u,me hata I cry sijui how my last born wil react nlmuacha so young nitalia sana until hata talking on phone makes me emotional 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Aki I'm shedding tears already 😥 I've been away from my son and jana I experienced the same....he doesn't even recognize me 😥 it really hurts and i felt it was all my fault
It's completely okay for Milly to feel like she's missing out on Taji's growing up steps. It's understandable. And Taji's reaction is usual. It's normal. But he would never forget his mummy. That bond is way too strong. Children tend to react that way because of mixed emotions and being overwhelmed. I'm pretty sure after a while, he was back to his bubbly self again. Milly, you're not missing out. And it's okay to feel like you wanna be more present. Nawapenda ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
See how Sylvia and I have said almost similar experiences with children in UK.. when my daughter came to UK, my daughter was 8yrs of age, now a mature lady. Then, I only took small jobs of few hour to make sure she find me home after school. I thank God because now says I was present mum as I qas not absent... am home at all times especially in the evening I was never absent.💚🇬🇧
Milly ,Taji needs you more than you can imagine but u guys you always leave him behind that's why ata akiwaona it's not a big deal for him but thanks you have learnt a lesson
One time i left my 3year old son behind for 3 days... When i came back he was asleep. When he woke up the nanny went picked him up and came with him... When i saw him.. i tried picking him up akakataaaa... He was clinging soo titely to the nanny and he refused me... I felt sooo hurt, i felt pain in my heart... I shed tears... I feel you Milly.
Woiee I have been away from my son for almost two yrs now simply because I have to work 😭😭😭😭😭😭he is five yrs but believe you me each time we talk I must cry so I can't judge you hugs Millie 💞💞💞💞💞
I feel the pain, I left mine he was 1year now even talking to me in a vedio call he doesn't want and he said am not mummy 😭😭it is so emotional I feel it now he is 3yrs
He need more time with you guys.iam a mother of 3 boys and I think at his age you can choose holidays destinations which suits him as well........milly feel relaxed the boy he's okay.
I feel you Milly..my son lives in the village with my mom and I visit for like after three months and sometimes I even find myself 😭😭wondering whether he really understand that am his mom and I love hom so much but everytime I visit he hugs me well but goes back to his business 😭
I was brought up with my grandparents is used to call my mum by her name then aunty... After high ndio nilimuita mum. The fact that none of my parents was not available it was so stressful..... Since I became a mum my babies are my first priority my prayer ni God Anibless na pesa ndio nifungue my biz ndio niwe around them all the time..... Milly you are doing a great job
Spending quality time during the foundation is paramount. Enjoy and cherish each waking moment. Your "you" time is also essential but should be done sparingly. "You time" rejuvenates the two of you.
Just bring him along in your holidays/vacations when you can. Also maybe don't plan consecutive trips soo close...so that it doesn't feel like you are always away
A prayer for all parents May God give you super natural strength even after work to spend quality time with your kids and have a great bond and may He guide you on how to raise your kids🙏🙏🙏 May God bless your hustle In Jesus name i pray Amen!
