Happy Friday! Is anyone missing the school holidays as much as I am? Yup, for some reason, I find school days much more tiring and of course, so much less fun.
Let's see how this bunch is doing.
The big girl has been waking up promptly, and in fact earlier than needed, because she has captain duties to fulfill this week. So far, she has been settling down well and it's good that she is reunited with her classmates for another year in Primary 4.
The little sister is now in Primary 1 and thanks to her elder sister and the fact that she has set foot in this school umpteen times last year (to help me out with volunteering), she is getting swiftly accustomed to things. Being the outgoing one, she has been making new friends and telling me all about her exciting happenings in school too.
As for the littlest, it's his second day of being in preschool and it's still a struggle whenever Mama needs to leave. He screams, he bawls, he resists and he holds onto me with all his might. It's a new experience for me because the sisters were chill when it came to starting school and neither of them cried, even though they might have been nervous when I had to leave. This one, I'm not sure how long he needs before we get over this phase - one which makes me feel heartless for leaving him and walking off. Yup, being apart for 3 hours every morning feels long and I am not sure if I will actually like the feeling of not having any kid around me for that couple of hours. I'm weird, huh?
Someone told me that boys might be surprisingly more clingy than girls and it seems true in my case, and this little koala will likely remain so for a while longer. I'm not complaining because I think when the time comes and he becomes a teenager who doesn't need me around and wants time alone or with friends, I think I will jolly well miss this superglue phase and wish I had cherished it more.
In any case, it's a new beginning for us and I am thankful to see that at least two out of three kids are doing well and feeling happy to go to school.
Hope the first few days of school have been great for your kids too!
