First day at kindergarten

A very Happy New Year to everyone, I know I had been MIA for some time. Pardon me, as I was busy with my daily dreamlike nausea and puke. I was also busy scooting around for a new school as it’s about time for the little sheep to attend school.

Wednesday: First day at school.
The sky were still gloomy and dark outside, I woke bb up while he was soundly asleep. It was the first day of school on wednesday. He dragged himself up while I get ready his uniform. He was somewhat jolly well happy carrying his Bob the builder’s bag and put on his Mickey’s socks and shoes before heading to school. All excited, including mommy and daddy.

They were already many little cuties at school when we arrived. Some were sobbing softly, some loudly while others happily entertained themselves with toys. I helped bb with his shoes in the shoe bag and sent him to class right away and I left him. He was perfectly cool and played with toys when I peeked through the window. Later I went in to the class again to chat with his form teacher and say goodbye to him. That’s when the horror scene started. He pretended not to hear me at first but facial expression changed immediately when I was ready to leave. He clang on to me and started crying hysterically. My heart ached seeing this, however I got to be firm. I left him crying in his teacher’s arm.

Today is the third day, he was very reluctant and already crying at home refused to put on the uniform, Sri has to coax him to put it on and he was so manja, he wanted Sri to piggyback him to the car. The moment my car reached the school, he started crying, tears were already thick in the car. Gosh! I feel so bad but darling, fees are not cheap; it’s for the better of you.

I really hope that he could do better at the following week. Does your kid cry their way to school? What do you do to calm and soothe them?

I LOVE THE SCRAP.... VERY nice...

As for bb crying... eee... after a while he'll be over it... trust me... i know... i was a crier when i went to school... try and reassure him, saying things like, u'll miss him, and u promise u will come after school and pick him up as soon as u can.... I saw that working for a few cases.... :D

It might take time.. but remember, don't force him into what he cannot get used to.. since my boy is still young, I decided to try again later.. :)

Good luck dear!

He will adapt eventually. The trick is to get them acquaintance with a favourite teacher. Like my Emily, she has her favourite teacher and always looking forward to go to school to see her. However it takes times, she stopped crying after 2-3 weeks. We just have to continue to encourage them.

Whom do you think I look like?

A couple of weeks ago, daddy and I were sort of discussing whom does bb look like. “Of coz me la” He claimed. Hehe… not only me but also most of my friends think bb looks very much like me. Daddy used to be upset when people said “lucky your son looks like mother”. He damn not syiok whenever people say that. He would complaint to me why those people talk lidat one. Hehehe…so today I am inviting you as the judge. Left: Mommy said she was very fond of the scissors, look at her hair, hehe...she snipped her own hair when she was that young. Right: Daddy was a goody-good student, look at how handsome he was with that tie :) That's me. I think I look very much like mom, so what say you? Who does BB look like?

Runaway

Dark hue befriended me this entire week. I was not “In the mood for work”. Everything around me seemed so quiet and static but not the noise in my head. I planned to runaway- escaping the pollution to treat my spirit to a little spa. (During off hour) Hah! I put on my headphones with (林宇中- 靠岸) playing. I am “In the mood of beading”, it has been a while since I last beaded. It is amazing to see lil meaningless beads evolving into something beautiful and useful. I am attempting for more exciting pieces soon. I think those rings look cute. What do you think? It is okay if you think otherwise as the saying goes beauty lies in the eye of the beholder.

Update

Gosh! He is still crying after 2 weeks. I spoke to my sister a couple of days ago telling her my concern over bb’s behaviour. When ask by daddy or mil whether he cries in school; bb’s answer is always “NO! I never cry”, uttered with confidence. In fact, he cries furiously when I drop him to school daily. His excuses before leaving with the teacher are either, “I want to go back or I want mommy or I want my kakak…”. Sis told me to boil an egg and keep it in his school bag; he will be okay in 2 weeks. Err…I have no idea why, it was a myth she heard from elder woman to soothes kids from crying to school. Has anyone heard of this tale before? Does it work was my immediate question to her. Well obviously, she said it worked for her 3rd child. I am very doubtful la but still I asked Sri to boiled one this morning for bb to bring to school. I am keeping my fingers cross. *counting- 1,2 3, 4, 5….eggs need to be boiled b4 he stops crying, wah, who is gonna eat those eggs???* Of late, I have bee...
