Mamapumpkin??? 
Once upon a time, she designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, she cleans poop and is student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, she has certainly learned many lessons in humility. And then others.....
To succeed in the corporate world, first succeed with your kid as the happy boss. Seriously.
This blog is about Mamapumpkin: A crazy, kick-ass Mom who works full time juggling several jobs - the full-time paid job, the raising of her 2 kids (she gets paid in kind for this) and the volunteering job for various charity organisations and parenting websites. Needless to say, she gets very little sleep (3-5 hours per day, Margaret Thatcher who used to sleep 4 hours per day during her conservative career inspires this crazy lifestyle).
Mamapumpkin intends to change the working Mom landscape in Malaysia where working women can bring their children to the corporate office of a client and not be frowned upon.
She writes anything that comes out of her head, mostly without thinking first (since she already has to think at work!), which almost ALWAYS gets her into trouble (according to her husband, whom she considers the love of her life on a good day).
Her 2 pet monkeys drive her towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.....day after day.....and interestingly, her parents are Muslim, her in-laws Buddhist, she's Catholic and her Hubs, an Atheist. She's thinking her kids should be Hindu, just to complete the rainbow religion cycle.
Gotta love it.

My precious firstborn
By Mamapumpkin, on April 24th, 2009
I’d give anything for these photos to have been taken professionally instead of my stupid handphone. Nevertheless, it depicts the soul of Tee, my precious firstborn, whom I will love fiercely till the day I die.
My dearest Tee, you have grown from a newborn who knew exactly what you wanted into a pretty butterfly, who still knows what you want, and know how to get what you want too! I hope you continue to grow into a fine young lady one day, who continues to know what you want, and most importantly, never forget that you can do anything and everything, all on your own (from Charlie and Lola). Always reach for the stars and the stars will be yours.
Like I’ve told you, you will always be my precious baby, even when you’re 80 years old! Soon, you will have a new baby sister and although you may feel that I no longer have enough time for you, always, always remind yourself that you are Mama’s Number One. Not an ounce of my love for you will be shared but a new pot of love be given to your new baby sister instead.
Love, Mama xxx
