Isabel..mommy felt so bad seeing you fell down in the school and injured your lips. Ur teeth were bleeding too. Mommy's heart so painful seeing you cry...

Mommy can't believe you are so creative. You made a bikini swim suit for barbie using plasticine. Great idea...

Yes...mommy told me I am going to be jie jie already. I am a big girl now and want to ve a jie jie. Mommy stomach has baby. I am so happy.  I will kiss and hug the baby in mommy's stomach.  I told mommy once the bb is out, I will share my toys and clothes with her. I will teach her how to play toys. I love you baby....

Holiday program

My school ends on 30 nov. But mommy wanted to bring kor kor for swimming lessons, so she has to sign me up on something to occupy my first week of dec. Mommy signed me up for a week of yoga and art craft holiday program organised by fun4kids. It starts at 9am and ends on 12.30pm. Just nice for mommy to pick me up after kor kor swimming lesson.

I was excited before going and kept asking mommy is it a big school like kor kor school. Mommy said no. Anyway I was still looking forward to it. But at the end of the first day, the cheh cheh didn't allow me to wash hand after the painting work,  I felt upset and started crying.

When reached home,  mommy asked me whether I like this school or not...I told her..this big school no friend, my small school has many friends. ...I think I still prefer my small school. The next day we were a bit late and the teacher so worried that I didnt want to go anymore. .

Note from mommy.

Mommy is proud of you that you didnt cry or wanted me to stay or leave or cling on to mommy on the first day. Even some older children was crying and refuse to join the group.  You are really an independent girl...mommy is so proud of you.

Sharing room with kor kor

I have been sleeping with daddy and mommy and kor kor in daddy's room for the past 2 weeks. Now, I want to sleep in daddy's room and didnt't want to sleep on my own. To make me sleep on my own again, mommy get kor kor to sleep with me.

Mommy said from now on, kor kor will be sleeping with me. I will be sharing my room with kor kor. But, I still called for mommy in the middle of the night and when mommy scolded me, I cried very loud and woke kor kor up in the middle of the night.


First day to preschool

@ 3 years 2 months 4 weeks and 1 day old

Today marked the first day that Isabel stepped into a preschool. It also marked the first time I left her with someone else, though only for 30 mins.

I have been toying with the idea of sending her to preschool but hesitated due to her age. But I feel she is ready for preschool due to her early speech and maturity.

Anyway, what made me send her there today was because uncle Ding will not be around next 3 days and I guess it will be better if I can send Darren and Chloe to school, instead of depending on Angela. The best way is to send Isabel to school too, so that she will not need to be under the sun with me if I have to send them to school. Of course, another major reason is I feel she will benefit more in preschool in the morning, compared to at home. It is either screen time or fighting with Darren at home in the morning, while I have to attend to all the morning chores and lunch preparation.Anyway, she has been asking to go to school..so why not?

So, I woke her up in the morning around 10.15am and we arrived the school around 10.45am. It was corner time for the children and she was happy to be there. She even insisted to carry her elephant bag to school. She called that her school bag. She also insisted to carry it all by herself without my help. So cute of her....

She was not afraid or shy at all when we reached there. She played with the children there and joined them in the class. She told me, "mommy, I go and study first ar?" She came out few times and told me this...

Until 12pm, I decided to leave the place and bring Darren for lunch. I told her I will come back and fetch her later. She seems ok. Though it was only half an hour, I felt I am missing something....I felt lost without her around...not used to it I guess....I have been thinking how is she doing without me around there...

At 12.30pm, I picked her up. The minute she saw me, her eyes turned red and she started crying. The teacher told me that she has been asking "where is mommy?' when started to see children going home. However, she get distracted when the teacher greet her goodbye and she has forgotten about her sadness and back to normal.

I asked her is she happy in school..she said yes..she told me she has many teachers there. I asked her whether she still want to go to school, she said yes....

I am very proud of her..at least for the first day..that she is not crying, that she is not clinging to me all the time...I am so proud that she is so independent...though she has been with me all the time and never attended any playgroup before. The teacher also commented that she likes to go to classes..hahaha....

So, hope she is ok tomorrow too...then, she will be officially going to preschool....

Dear Isabel,

Though mommy has been waiting for this day for a long time and happy to have some time on my own..but when this time is here, I feel I am missing you very much. You have become part of me and mommy wishes we can both be together all the time. But, you have grown up and you are ready to learn more things outside the world....mommy has to let you go..somehow..one day. So, this is a start..a start to venture things on your own without mommy next to you. But, don't worry, mommy will always be there for you, should you need me around. Mommy will come back and fetch you. Don't worry....

I love you, Isabel...

Love,
Mommy....
