Told P tt none of classmates is going to the same school as her and asked how she felt abt it. To my surprise she told m its OK, i will just make new frens like making new frens in playground.
I m shocked by her reply, she is optimistic abt it rather than worried abt change of environment. She is looking forward to Primary. Her daycare has prepared her for primary very well.
After spending 1 mth in ICU, CJ just moved at home this afternoon. We all learned precious lesson from him. The most optimist person i have ever met.
Take care K. RIP CJ.
P spend her children's day in Adelaide. She had lotsa fun in playground n beach. Once holiday ended, it was back to school. When i picked her up after school, she has a bagful of gifts. Our favourite gift is by Teacher S, it was a scrapbook of outing by the K2. It is a very meaningful gift. Thank you for the time and effort for making the scrapbook, it is priceless. From the photos, can see that all the kids have grown up so much in this 10 mth.......
P oso got a very personal gift from Teacher L. A book with her name n besties in it. She was over the moon when she read the title.
Thank you all for all the gifts. P really like them.
During the trip, we spend alot of time in the playground. Playground here are very children friendly, and everyone follows the rules. It is like a big melting pot where children of all races and religions play together and have fun. P blends in pretty well, making new frens and having fun. If only the adults are the same then there will not be wars.
All the kids are so lovely, they tok abt everything. P's vocab improved quite a bit and so is her courage. She will walk up to the kids in playground and intro herself and asked if she can play with them. Whereas i sit under the sun n see them play..... life is good
Did some cleaning today... Clearing up spaces for new things.... Found P's old clothes, there were so small. Looking at her now she has grown so much... Found her first panties, she wore them in N1. I remember having a hard time finding xs panties for her...
Memories floating back just looking at those old clothes......
CP dropped by the office and told me CJ was admitted to ICU last evening. Thats explains why she was late today. She looked tired and her eyes were swollen from crying when she walked in. We kept quiet and didnt utter a word. She gave us some instructions of what need to be done for the upcoming week.
After she settled down, she told me CJ was admitted in ICU for shortness of breath. Then told me that doc said he has less than 6 mth to live which means he might nt even make it to try the new chemo med. I felt sad and sorry for her. No matter how mentally well prepared u are, it will still be hard to go thru whatever she is goin thru.
CJ was my inspiration. I have learnt alot from his experience. I learnt to loosen up and smile more. I m praying for you.
The daycare has arranged for the kids to visit 3 primary schools. P went for the 2nd primary school visit yesterday. During the visit, they experienced buying food and stationaries in the tuckshop and bookshop. Seems like she is somehow mentally prepared for the next transition.
My little warrior is goin to primary school. Time flies. She came home asking which school she is going, good to know that she in enthu abt the whole thing. Whereas for me, i m worried abt the registration and transition. Will she get into the school tt is near to home and after school care. Is she ready for P1, so on and so forth......
I must say daycare really prepare them for the next phase. Homework on weekend to let them have a feel of hw. Setting up tuckshop corner for them experience with buying own food and money matters.
Perhaps i need not worry so much, like the chinese saying 船到桥头自然直.
