Mama, you can go now

Today, Tasnym was resistant to go into her class and I had to accompany her. She was clinging on, sitting on my lap and not even wanting to go with Sarah. But after a while... I think she had warmed up a little to being in school, she turned to me and said:

Tasnym: "Mama, you can go to work, I stay here with Kakak. Bye Mama Bye!"

Mama : "Hmmm... oh ok... bye Tasnym"

Kena halau seh...

My babies are growing up!

Waaah... I felt like crying today when I left Tasnym in school. She looked like she was about to cry and refused to walk into the school and called for me softly. I had to tell her to go in to look for her kakak before she turned away. Later peeped into the windows to see her in Sarah's class and hugging Sarah... I think she'll be fine ... but ... my babies are growing up! Waaaaahh..

Tasnym's First Day

Its Tasnym first days in nursery at Hanis Montessori together with Sarah. As predicted Tasnym did not cry, it was Sarah who had separation anxiety although I was sitting full view in front of her. I ended up sitting straddled between two classes entertaining both girls at either side. By the end of the morning though, Tasnym was all happy to be sitting on her own doing her own stuff with the teacher. Sarah still needed assurance that I would be around... Oh well..

Tasnym keeps running over to Sarah's class and refusing to go to her own class. She screamed when I carried her off. I think her teachers will have a problem... She does things according to what she wants. So when others sat in a circle singing songs, she was in the middle spinning round and round on her own. Or in the middle of Sarah's class sliding around on her tummy!!

Well... can't wait for the next Parent-teacher meeting!

Go to Hell Smokers!

I really can't stand people who smoke. I find them inconsiderate ans extremely selfish. They only think about their own personal enjoyment and not of others' discomfort. It is personal choice to smoke and they can continue to do so, suffer from lung cancer and die if they really wish to. But I can't stand it when they wish to pass on that death wish to others who have no wish or want to breathe horrible smelling smoke that reeks of serious poison!! Worse yet when pregant ladies or children are around. They dun care whether there is a no-smoking sign stuck right in front of their nose.

If they want to smoke in public so much, why don't they just swallow all the smoke, why breathe it out? Then they can have the total satisfaction of receiving the full effects of the nicotine and all accompanying poisons. Why be so gracious and generous in wanting to share the smoke with others. Or better yet, why not just stand in the middle of the road, put a hose attached to the back exhaust of a Malaysian bus and just take a deep breath... I assure you, the effects are the same and maybe you'll get a better high! Or maybe, you'll get knocked down by other vehicles so you get your wish to die much earlier...

Since people who smoke often say they do it cos of stress, well get a bigger dose of poison from the bus and it will eliminate all your problems away...

They smoke at public functions, in front of babies, in front of pregnant wives, don't these smokers have any sense at all? You mean they dun even love their wives and unborn child that they willingly continue to puff away despite knowing full well the possible impacts. Dun tell me they are so ignorant!!

Its gonna be earlier, YEAH!!

We went to the gynae yesterday and were surprised to be told that actually the baby is already 9 weeks and not 7 weeks, as we had previously thought. This was noted in the scan that the baby is actually much bigger. Well, I'm happy to know that my morning sickness misery is gonna be cut down by two weeks ha ha.

We finally gave in and as Zuraidah would put it, has put up the white flag and proceeded to employ a new maid. Wat to do... we really cannot stand the sight of our home right now and neither has the energy to actually clean up cos its gets too frustrating to see it messed up so soon after. The pile of unfolded clothes is ominously growing bigger and one day we would need to use picks and axes to climb it!!

I'm just praying for the best and really hope that the same problems encountered before will not repeat itself.

Boy or Girl

People around are already asking whether I'm carrying a boy or girl.... its too soon to see duh...

My hubby wants yet another girl as he wants to make a trio of Charlie's Angels. I want a boy. No reason, just felt that it would complete the equation somehow and wanted the experience of caring for a boy. Hubby asked how I would feel if it was a girl. My reply? Of course, I would accept it cos be it boy or girl, it is still a gift from God that I am extremely grateful for. So many people around are having so much problems conceiving and even maintaining a child in the womb.

But for now, please GOD can it please be a boy? Thank you

Parent teacher meeting

Went to Sarah's PT meeting yesterday and to no surprise we learnt that she still maintained her "I will learn when I decide to" attitude ie she would only respond to her teachers when she feels like it making it hard for them to assess her. She would even demonstrate her knowledge to her teachers at her own leisure and not at the time when they wanted her to... hmmm... a person with control issues!!

What does surprise us is the information that she is very popular in class such that the other kids would want to sit beside her and be her friend... this for someone who is so shy and quiet. I think its also cos she mothers them and is a big sister to the rest. She would assure them and help them with things. Awww... So cute!! I feel so proud of her when the teachers shared that with us.
