🌿 Simple Joys: A Morning Journal from Housework to Gardening and ...

Hello, my lovely friends!

Today, I want to share with you the simple yet heartwarming morning atmosphere at my cozy garden home. My tasks begin today with the gentle sunlight and the responsibilities I have as a wife, mother, and dutiful daughter.

🥣 Breakfast Made with Care
This morning was a normal school day for my daughter, so I started exploring the ingredients in the kitchen and found that there was quite a bit of leftover rice from yesterday. I had the idea to transform the cold rice into hot, fragrant rice porridge to help warm us up in the morning.
I asked my beloved husband to drive to the village shop to buy some salted fish, and he didn't disappoint, getting exactly the high-quality salted fish I ordered. Once all the ingredients were ready, I turned on the gas and heated the pan. The sizzling sound of the hot oil hitting the salted fish filled the house with its aroma. Soon, a simple yet delicious breakfast was ready to be served on the table in front of the house, amidst the airy and comfortable atmosphere.
The three of us—father, mother, and youngest daughter—sat around the table and enjoyed our meal together. For my mother, I had prepared a separate, soft pork and egg rice porridge specifically for her, so it would be easy for her to chew and ensure she received complete nutrition.

🔔 Rushing but full of joy
While they were enjoying their delicious meal, the school bell rang, signaling the start of classes. The little girl quickly put down her spoon, put on her favorite shoes, and hurried towards school, which wasn't far from home. Although almost late, she arrived with a smile and energy from the breakfast her mother had prepared for her.

🐢 Mission accomplished: Taking care of the little ones and mom.
After dropping off my daughter and preparing breakfast, my next task is to care for my beloved mother. I carefully feed her breakfast before helping her bathe, dressing her neatly, and, of course, performing her daily "physical therapy" routine to keep her body strong and happy.

Besides taking care of my family, my little pets are just as important. I stopped by to clean the birdcage, water the plants, and give the little turtles a bath to help them relax and naturally release uric acid. Seeing them happy makes me smile too.
🛶 Journey to the Farm: Sustainable Agriculture
A little later in the morning, my husband and I hopped on our trusty motorbike, loaded with leftover food from yesterday, and headed towards our farm behind the temple. Along the way, we didn't forget to share the leftover food with the stray dogs, believing that small acts of sharing make the world a better place.

Upon arriving at the garden house, the hens and ducks swarmed towards me, knowing exactly what to do. I scattered a mixture of cooked and uncooked rice for them, while my husband took on the task of feeding the fish in the pond. The fish we released into the pond are now growing much stronger and healthier.
The most memorable sight of the day was seeing my husband paddling his small boat into the pond, carefully collecting fallen leaves and trash floating on the surface to keep our water source clean. I couldn't resist taking out my camera to capture his diligence and the peaceful atmosphere.

🏠 Back home to prepare for the next meal.
After finishing our tasks at the garden, we returned to our house to prepare for lunch. Even though we haven't decided on a menu yet, starting the day by taking care of loved ones and pets amidst nature like this is a priceless blessing.
