Choice of words

One day, I was waiting around at the entrance after Josie went into her class. Looking on as she did her routine things from removing her shoes to storing her bag to sitting at her spot. The parents/grandparents in her school will stay on, looking till the teacher closes the door.

Then one of her classmate, whom I know the mummy before this school starts, came. The mummy was telling her child that after going into class, can look for Josie to play, reassuring her child (first time to a school, still clingy at the door).

Then..... some mummies got curious, which child is Josie. We still are in the stage where we are unable to identify all the children. One described her with the two ponytails. Another described her with the "big face".

There goes my heart. Sensitive I know. But if the parents uses this description, what would happen when she is older, going to school with older kids who are taught up this way? Will bullying starts? I do remember I have a classmate who was always called a "big head" in a jeering manner.

I'm worried...

But she's the best as she is. Mammy loves Josie.

Josie's first official class

It's the start of a new year. My facebook had been flooded with parents being excited and worried for their children's first day of school, be it N1, K1, P1, S1. Hahaha.. Amazing range huh. My turn soon. Next year maybe, and it will be N1 for her. Till then, it's play for now.

During Josie's 2nd trial of 3 classes, I signed up her for a 10 class weekly session. It's $550 for 10 classes and $60 registration fee. And they rebated my $88 for the trial. That's so awesome. I love savings. If I signed up for two terms, the savings for the classes is even more. But that's over a thousand dollars. An amount too big for this SAHM.

Exploring the gym

I'm not sure if it's because she's in a good mood, or simply because she's more used to going to class and having fun, Josie looked forward to today's class. She kept trying to peer into the gym and wanting to go in. But the gym is not opened till class time.

Trying to reach for the latch to open the door to go in

She had fun today. Busy Hi-5 ing teachers and classmates.

My happy baby

I'm really happy she had fun and learning things, at the expense of her Daddy's wallet =P

I was asking her where's Latte korkor. Haha.. She pointed downwards and said "Dog"
