Our New Pet!

While I was cooking on Monday evening, Z came running towards me "mommy! There is something in your room!" . He found a ladybird on my bed! Yucks! How did it get into my room? I have to get rid of it! Then I thought, why don't I try to catch it and let them have a closer look? I quickly ran to the kitchen to get an empty container and with the lid, I managed to put it in.

L suggested, "mommy, can I bring it to school to show my friends? " That's a good idea! The next day, both fight to bring it to school. Since it was L who suggested that, I decided that L will bring it to school first. Z was unhappy but when I told him the next day it will be his turn, he was alright.

They were sad when I told them that we can't keep the ladybird. I had to come out with stories that the family will miss it, maybe it is a mommy/daddy and the children looking for it, blah blah... When they heard that, they think that we should let it go too. When Z brought it to school, they reminded each other to say farewell to it. So cute hor?

They had fun showing it to their friends. The teachers were happy too that they brought it along especially Z's teacher. She asked if she can keep it to show it the other class. Why not? We intend to set it free today after Z's turn. Think they missed their Show & Tell session in their old school.
