Goodbye To Their Old School

It was time for them to say goodbye to their school since the school will be close on Thursday & Friday.... Honestly, I'm very happy. How about L & Z? Well, they are looking forward to their new school and they will miss their friends only.

I was disappointed with the school for the last few weeks. When we send in the withdrawal letter, we thought they would be professional, to treat us the same. How wrong I was! I don't received anymore updates through email from the school since 1 month ago and I have to ask other mommies to forward it to me. When I asked them, they claimed there was something wrong with my email account or computer. Funny thing was, I asked them through email and they replied me! Teachers used to update us when we picked up our kids but we don't get them anymore too. Anyway, enough of that....

Their last day was no difference from other days. I told them to say goodbye to their friends and L did but Z was too young to understand. It was probably better this way..... I told my babies to tell me if they ever need to talk about their old school or friends. I don't want them to hide their feelings. Let's hope things will be better from now on....

Christmas

We had a wonderful time with godparents! We planned to have a bbq at the beach but it was raining so we changed our venue. It was the first time that L & Z went to bed at around midnight.

We wanted to get hamsters for them as Christmas presents but after discussion, we decided not to. We bought them a terrapin instead as it was easier to handle compared to hamsters. They thought that was their only Christmas presents when I gave it to them. Gagaga.... L has a Sound Box Ampli Concert from Winx Club (her current favourite), I knew she would be very excited coz she likes to sing and it comes with a microphone! Z has a remote control Scoop ( & Bob as the control) from Bob The Builder, I knew he would love this so long it's something to do with vehicles and he can control.

On Christmas morning, both can't wait to open their presents! "Ohhhh", "Ahhhh", "Awesome" & "This is cool man" were what we heard throughout. :)

We went to Queensway shopping centre in the afternoon to get new school shoes for them but was disappointed with the service in 1 of the shops and they ran out of sizes. When we were in 1 of the shops, we saw a boy (think he is about 8 or 9 yrs old) put a piece of paper on my girl's head for no reason. How could he do that! I stared at him, expecting him to apologise but he didn't. So I went up to him and told him that he shouldn't do that and he owe my girl an apology. He hesitated, then apologised..... Then his grandpa (I think) was there and asked "what?". I told him what happen and I expected him to tell his grandson not to do that again. You know what? He kept quiet and walked away! My goodness!
It was a not-so-great Christmas outing for me,to meet a rude salesman and a naughty boy. We should have stayed at home instead. Haiz.... But we do have a great time when we got home :) Having fun & eating log cake. Look at the pics! They enjoyed it very much! :D

My Nephew Has Arrived!

My dear cousin, Fonia has delivered on 21 December! Hurray! Congrats! We are overjoyed with this news. :D But we won't be able to see our baby nephew till he is back in Singapore. Baby SF (yet to decided a name) decided to come out earlier than expected, his due date was Christmas day.

She is alone for the confinement with the help of my cousin-in-law only. I am sure S will take good care of Fonia and she is such a capable woman. We look forward to seeing her next year!

Another performance For The Elderly

L went to the church to perform for the elderly today. The school received a call from the church on Tuesday asking of they would like to perform for them. It was a very short notice so they did a short performance compared to the last one.

The school has decided to donate the rest of the money from the previous donation to the Children Cancer Society. Unfortunately I will not be involved this time as we will be going to the new school next year but I do hope they will do better.

You Wear New One?

This morning, Z noticed daddy was wearing a new tie

Z : Daddy, You wear new one?

Daddy : What is new?

Z : This one! (pointing at the tie)

Both my babies are very observant.... They will notice things or people around them. If they see a new present under the Christmas tree, they will ask : "mommy, we have another present?" . Whether I have a new hairdo, I clean the house, cook a new dish etc... They notice everything!
