School Day Blues

We survived Jesse's first day. Yay! The boy was a little apprehensive at first seeing the crowd in the place, but the moment he saw tables upon tables all strewn with toys, he quickly got into the game. Unfortunately Jesse isn't much of a people person, so after awhile, he just went his own way doing his own thing.


it's Daddy's first day of school

On their first week, classes run from 9:00am to 11:00am only. Our first hour we distanced ourselves, staying in sight so our boy could see us. At the second hour, once we saw that he has gotted comfortable in his new surroundings, we quickly split the scene.

All in all, it wasn't bad. Today, however, was a different story altogether. I didn't go today, so Mae managed it on her own. Unfortunately the poor boy was feeling a little fragile today and there was screaming and gneshing of teeth. Ugh! Hopefully he gets accustomed quickly cos this Kindie is pretty militant about parents' presence. According to a Handbook we had been given (yes, they're THAT efficient!) we're not allowed on school ground after Day 3.

I'd like to tell you a cute little story of my first day at Kindy, but for the life of me, I can't remember a damn thing about it. Either it was such an uneventful day that I forgot or I have suppressed the horrific memory of my mother deserting me. Heh! I guess eventually it'll turn out alright for Jesse.
