Travel again...

My job need me to travel quite extensively....and today, I need to travel to Taiwan till Monday (23rd Oct) and stay at home for 2 days before 'off' again to HK till Sat (28th Oct) next week....which mean that I will 'miss' my darling sons so much and dont' see them for 2 consecutive weekends...

This morning scenario between Jona and myself is quite 'cute' and 'sad' for me to accept...

I was double check my stuff this morning around 7.15am when Jona suddenly pop up in front of me...As usual, after he wake up, he will come down straight from his room (while grandma wash and brush teeth). The conversation start:-

Jona : Good morning, mummy
Mummy : Good morning, Jona

(saw a cab outside our house)

Jona: There is a car outside (then, he walk to the sofa)
Mummy : Yes. Jona. Mummy going outstation again. This time, going to Taipei and back on Monday.
Jona: mmm..ok. Good bye, mummy
Mummy: ?? (just thinking: wow, my son really grown up lor...know me going outstation)
Mummy: You must be a good boy when mummy not around ok?
Jona: OK.
Mummy: Don't be naughty ya?
Jona: OK
Mummy: Give mummy a hug and kiss
Jona obey hug me and give me a sweet kiss.....(I almost cried...)

While walk to the door,

Jona: Good bye, mummy
Mummy: Good bye, darling

2 minor 'incidents'

In one year period, around Isaac nanny house, I met with 2 'minor' accident....not really big deal actually, but, just think of remind myself....

Nanny house is opposite to playground, as you know, lot of children either playing swing, football, etc...

One afternoon, after fetching Isaac, and only drive 20km/j, suddenly, a boy kick the ball so far that it roll to main road (imagine how strong his kick - good footballer in future, he,he) and just coincidence, roll under beneath of my car....I didn't realise it, cause busy talking and playing with Isaac while driving slowly passing the housing area. Suddenly, heard loud 'boommm'..both me and Isaac got a SHOCK and immediately I stop my car and see....only realise the ball roll underbeneath and my car run over it....can see all boys in the field show dissapointed face....SORRY, not mean too...

Next day, no one is playing football in the field, but, following day, guess some parent bought new ball gua..they happily start playing again....

I told my hubby this incident and he said, I should buy new ball for them....what?!! Hello, it is not my fault and somemore, I'm not millionaire ler....if every day like this...habis lor.. i better change job to become a banker/printing money by myself...he,he....

Yesterday, another incident happen just before I reached nanny house. After making a corning quite slowly and on correct lane, I guess with 40km/j, suddenly see one boy cycle bicycle so fast (like Shumey), and he is on my lane!! When he see me, suddenly he got panic and try to stop his bicycle which unluckily, not able to do so, and 'BANG' into my car so hard...but, he is lucky, cause I already stop my car and hoping he is able to do so..who know...then, I go down from the car, and asked whether he is ok and wanted me to send him home...while rubbing his leg and adjust his bicycle, he complain...*I sudah nak stop, basikal saya ada brek, cuma awak #@!$%@* ...can heard that he complain that I'm wrong but with very small voice (he just little boy around age of 8 - malay boy)....

How daring boy nowdays??!! And, the neighbour around Isaac nanny house saw this incident, told me that it is really dangerous and the kids always cycle on main road without precautious....

Really hoping in future, my darling Jona or Isaac Noel won't doing that all by themselves without mummy or daddy supervising...

Pre-school nightmare...

I just wondering which mummy or daddy won't be upset if all these happen to our own kids....yesterday, Jona came back from school with high fever, and non of the school teacher or the driver inform us that Jona got fever till my mum carry Jona from the school-car only realise Jona got HIGH fever (38.6 C)!!

I really quite upset with this pre-school...really, if I got chance, I will **slap** this principal for broken her promise. Initially, when the school had open day end of last year, she keep calling me to persuade me to enroll Jona in her school...almost every night...and when I mention will enroll in July, around end of June, she call again....

Once I enroll Jona to her preschool, below is the scenarios that happens which really make me think I have make terrible mistake:-

Scenario 1: 2 weeks attend preschool + daycare = one evening, when I go and fetch Jona from daycare, teacher told me that Jona today, 'pinch' one girl (who happen to be my next neighbour DD). This old lady teacher said, maybe, both playing and accidentally Jona pull the girl hand and the girl try to avoid, and 'ta ta ta'...I do said apologise on behalf of Jona...Then, this teacher ask me to promise not to tell the principal that she told me...Just let the principal inform me about this incident.....never to my imagination that the principal in return 'accuse' me that Jona learn pinching stuff from home?! What? Jona is the eldest, who he would learn it from home?! So far, we never pinch him except use rotan to cane him lar....

Scenario 2: This happen also when Jona in the daycare...Teacher told me, Jona very naughty, make one kid fall backward...when I asked further...this is the actual scenario....Jona inform teacher, he want pee pee, and this 'old lady' might didn't heard it, so don't bother, and Jona just pee pee on the floor....of course lar, 2 yrs +, what do you expect? And, before this teacher mop it, another young boy (same age with Jona) purposely walk over the urine and slip off and bang his head backward...And, teacher accuse it is Jona who being so naughty and scold him...do you think this is fair?

Scenario 3: Everytimes when I fetch Jona back from daycare, once I reach the school,and Jona see me, immediately he will grab his school bag and tell teacher "teacher, teacher, mummy is here' (repeating), and then, stand near the grill (I mean door grill not gate). The teacher, always reply in strong tone 'Jona come here! Sit down, and don't move!' ' You only stand when I have open the grill and ask you to go!'....What the hell?! My son just being so excited seeing mummy and want to go home, that's all after long day in preschool + daycare...can't he has some 'freedom'?

(I never have problem when I bring Jona out for shopping either in Tesco, etc. He will always follow me politely....I just wondering, if you open a daycare, you should be a caring teacher/nanny to guide and teach n talk nicely with the kids - wonder all these bunch of teachers did receive their diploma in childcare or not)

Scenario 4: This happen recently, last Friday. Jona came back from school, and when my mum want to fetch Jona from the school-car, the driver told my mum 'fall down' and off...And, then, Jona told my mum '(his classmate name), fall, fall,aiyo'. Both his palm is so red (luckily, no ulcer, etc)..So, I call and ask the principal what happen to Jona in school today....

You know what she told me "no, no, nothing happen in school...I asked the driver and she told me, she never told your mum that Jona fall down. He might just fell down all by himself when he open the car door"....WHAT?!!

Scenario 5: As I mention earlier, Jona got really high fever yesterday, when he back from school....why no one from the school call us to inform us, to bring Jona back and see doctor?? Shouldn't the teacher being a bit concern about little kids that schooling there?

I really piss off with the school and principal...all in her mind, is money, money, money...she didn't even teach at that school...anyway, I already enroll Jona in another kindy for next year (really hope this one is much better and secure and more professional in handling kids)...

p/s: lots of mummy also really unsatisfied with their kid performance, teacher/principal attitude from this kindy....few of them told me (while we're chit chatting at playground during evening time)they also withdraw their kid from that kindy and move to another better kindy.... he,he...of course lar, we paid so much and this is what we get in return - really not a good investment tho....

Update: Progress/Development (4th Oct 2006)

Guess now I should start joting now Jona / Isaac Noel latest development progress from time to time (before mummy forgot totally about it) - got this idea when my younger sister, Flora asked me when Jona got first tooth, Jona don't want milk, how you 'encourage' him to drink, etc....


Jonathan (3 years and 2 months old)

Progress: Nowdays, Jonathan really love books. Everyday, back home, definitely hold book + colour pencils + pencil.....even though, when I force him to pronounce some words which is hard for him, and later he did, I will praise him and bring him to 'mini mart' to buy sweet/candy mah...who know, he want go to bookstores and select one colouring book that he likes!!

Till today, he still bully his Di Di, but, after that, he will rub Isaac head, said 'sorry, Isaac' or 'don't cried'....so sweet....both now, start to enjoy each other companion...


Isaac Noel (1 years old)

Progress: Start his first few steps already...too active. Like to climb and sit on chair and 'goyang' his leg...or, climb and sit on his ko ko tricycle and make sound like 'weeewww''weeeewww''. Don't know how he get it..??

But, for Isaac, FOOD is number 1. Got food, don't bother anything... ha,ha...can swallow or eat anything you can offer to him...

Also, nowdays, if Ko Ko hit him, or not allow him to touch any of Ko Ko stuff or we don't fully his wish, he will 'roll' himself on the floor and cried so loud?!! Or, even scream so loud to tell us, Ko Ko beat him....when we carried him and comfort him, immediately he stop cried, and start to 'scold' his ko ko ...with his baby language - 'eee, aaa,aaaaaaaaaa'

So funny, see my boys progress day by day....

p/s: hooray..now I can let Isaac wear his new cutie mutie shoes
