Meet The Teacher Session

Today has been a super duper busy day for me! Firstly, I got to meet the principal and Jeremy's form teacher for all the paper work to be done before he enters this school next year. Yes, he will be wif his Jie-Jie, finally!!! Times flies indeed. Then after settling this, I need to meet Jamie's form teacher and chinese teacher for assessment of her entire K1 course of study. Well, am I pleased ?? Praise the Lord!! She has done extremely well wif mostly excellent comments and less than 3, good comments. However, there's 1 thing which troubles me alot. That is, she sometimes does take her own sweet time in accomplishing work in class, especially during chinese lessons. Having said so, the chinese teacher commented that, though Jamie seems to be in "deep thoughts" , she can follow instructions and complete her work independently & accurately !! Haha, do you call this multi-tasking??? Hmm, I dunno if this is a compliment or what.

Christmas Celebration

These are the gifts I've prepared it at very last minute for Jamie to give to all her 32 classmates this morning. Nothing fantastic, just a notebook & mechanical pencil but what I hope to relay the message to these kids is that God sent His Son to die for us so that we will have eternal life. And for us to demonstrate this little acts of giving, may the Lord's blessing be upon each and every one of the children. Oh yes, I also prepared sandwiches for the class :)

Deepavili Holiday

Kids did not take their afternoon nap today and I started wif lotsa programmes for them till both of them were too tired and they knocked out at 9pm sharp!! hahahaa.... and we went to the playground not once but twice! We played badminton, scooter, kicking the football and the kids were so happy whereas I was soooo worn out at the end of the day though I managed to catch my fav Amazing Race after the kids had gone to bed :D

Child Dedication

Praise the Lord that we finally managed to dedicate them during church servicde yesterday! I have been telling Jamie why we are doing this and what does it means by this act. It's also a reminder for CQ & I to know that its our responsibilities to bring up our children according to God's intended purpose and to ensure that they have the opportunity to know who God is and to walk through wif them this journey of knowing & accepting Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour.

A Friend's Church Wedding

Attended a personal fren's church wedding at City Harvest today and I brought Jamie along,knowing she is easier to babysit vs Jeremy. I am pleased to be able to witness Lawrence's wedding whom I have known him during our poly days. Here's a pix taken from Peiling's HP.

Little Challenge for Little Boy

Jeremy has been crying and waking up during late nights since he was a baby. There were days when he slept through the night but most of the time, he don't. Since the start of October when both kids are sleeping in the same room, I've been telling him why he should be considerate and not waking up Jamie & aunty at night. Told him that I will reward him "handsomely" if he shows me that he can do it! I am praying that he will outgrown this cycle and give us a chance to reward him :D

Bye, Old House..

Today we handed over the keys to en-bloc officer in charge at 1030am. Everything was cleared out and in less than an hour, we returned the house by to HDB. Ironically, I do not really have much sentiments about this house although it had witnessed many big and small events in our lives, including the birth of our children. One thing for sure is, the kids are as happy living in the new house here.

Silly Parent Volunteer Program

I'm currently going through a series of PV work to be complete by next year June in order to complete the 40 hours. Trust me, I am not the most KS mummy but neither am I a bochap person. So, today I was stucked at BBK swimming pool to "bbsit" some P6 pupils for 3hrs of swimming lesson. I WAS BORED this time probably becos the kids are old enough to take care of themselves. Anyway, I'm still left with 26 hours. Just hope that I can get it over SOON.

Dilly Dally Princess Star

I've decided to "threaten" this girl after finding out from her form teacher that she has been slow in completing her work in school. I told her that perhaps she is not suitable to study there since she "cannot catch up" ... Know what's her reaction?? Hahaa, she freaked out immediately and cried for long and begged me to allow her to continue there as she will miss her friends for sure! Well, I told her that she has to prove to me that she is fast (yet accurate and neat) and that she doesn't dilly dally and gets distracted easily. Guess what? Today, her form teacher came to me and reported that she's the 1st to submit her written work!! Hahahaaa... who says she is slow?? I know she CAN do it but she choose NOT to.

Fun Time

The kids were having fun doodling and playing in HARMONY before Jamie heading to school. This is really rare, trust me. They usually snatch, argue, tease and sometimes hit each other. Surely have things to iron out for them. So can you imagine, I have to play the middle-man every day, just to make sure they don't harbour any grudges at such tender age.

School Bus

We took a short bus ride (2 bus stops away) and walked 8mins by foot to reach Jeremy's school. After that, I gotta rush home by bus again so that I can spend time with Jamie for another 1hour b4 sending her off to school again! It's such a tiring experience especially under the hot sun so a decision has made to engage the school bus service for Jeremy started this Wednesday. Of course this boy is over the moon !!

Bisphenol-A Free Bottles

Was surfing the net for some info and I chanced upon some forum mummies discussing about the dangers of using plastic milk and water bottles. I quickly goggled and found out many information and without much hesitation, I bought these for peace of mind.
