Gar Gar 1st day of Kinderland

4th Jan 2010 - My Julian and Garwyn 1st day of the year but especially for my Gar Gar as it is his official 1st day of school without Mommy! Gar Gar is joining Julian in Kinderland for a half day class.

I was feel with excitment and anxiety. Packed their bags and bought whatever they needed for the big day. Check and check their bag several time to make sure I didn't leave out any important items.

I woke before 7am in the morning to help prepare them for school. After they left with the school transport, I hurried into my car and followed behind to the school.

To my surprise, GaR GaR was not crying when he board the van with gor gor. When I reached the school, he was playing happily in the classroom. But that was not for long and he started to cry for gor gor. Julian was then summoned by the teachers to appease his little brother. He went into the classroom and played blocks with Gar Gar. Gar Gar felt more secured with gor gor around but soon it was the shame shame gor gor started crying so teacher had to bring him back to his class and Gar Gar started to cry...

I went to pick Gar Gar up at 12.30pm.

Intelligence

Today i read an article pasted on the notice board of Shichida school. The subject of this article is about whether intelligence is born or made. I find it really interesting so i stood there to read and ponder about it. Then my maid asked Gar Gar if his intelligence is born or made. Gar Gar replied "home made" and that reply really made me laughed. Nevertheless, it's quite true cos i did put in alot of time and efforts to "home school" them. Gar Gar is always attentive when comes to learning and he is always hungry for books and puzzles. As for Julian, I believe he is born gifted with intelligence but he is a super attention seeker and thus spend most of time catching the attention of others rather to focus on learning. That's what I call attitude problem, so what if he is clever? If his attitude problem persist, he would have wasted his god gift intelligence.

"Gar Gar, it is ok to be home made....dun learn from gor gor ok?"

Our Anniversary

this photo is taken by Julian

It's our 7 + 14 years anniversary. Why 7 + 14? Cos it's 7 years of courtship and 14 years of marriage (24th Nov). Instead of a candle light dinner, I decided that it should be a family occasion so we took the kids to their long awaited excursion - MERLION PARK! and that was how we celebrated our anniversary.

For 21 years together, it resulted in these 2 adorable monsters produced. Life is now complete with them. Our joy and pride...
