I made Mummy and baby bear bentos for this Thanksgiving hop because I am thankful for the opportunity to be a stay-at-home-mum. I've been one since the birth of IT, and that makes it almost 9 years, the longest job I've had, lol. I am very thankful for being able to look after and be with the boys all the time. I enjoy their company very much. Of course it's not all a bed of roses, I'm very busy on most days, since I'm the chauffeur, maid, chef, tutor, etc. And I'm almost screaming my head off at them every day. But their smiles, hugs, kisses, love and appreciation makes it all worthwhile. :)
Mummy and baby bears are made from short grained brown rice. Blanket around baby bear is a small slice of ham.
The box is also packed with curry meatballs, broccoli, grapes and strawberries.
Bento for me, love the colours in the box today. :)
Aww..i almost tear reading your SAHM para. :) Im not, but i think im going to next year. I dont know if i can cope with the house chores and being chauffeur, maid, etc like what you said. But agree with you, it is all worthwhile at the end of the day. :)
