Its been ages since I last posted an entry. Yeah, my kids took all my time. It is also because I am still using dial-up instead of broadband. You know how had it is to get to post an entry even with our broadband speed, what more with a dial-up. It really puts me off with their slow tortoise speed.
Today, I had a little bit of time since ZD is napping while ZM is at school. Yeah, my kids have grown since I last blogged. ZM entered school early this year. He cried for the first 3 months when we sent him to school! He had separation enxiety ie. he does not like to be separated with me since he is very close to me. But its all over now. He enjoys his school and looks forward to go to school daily. I am so glad. I like his school. Since second half of last year, I have been searching for a good kindergarten for him. I looked high and low, near and far. To me, a good school is a school that does not burden children with homeworks and exams, have lots of play incorporated, fun-loving teachers, lots of space for kids to run around and proper english speaking teachers. I have found all these with his current school. Before deciding to enrol him in his current school, I have shopped around more than 10 schools for this purpose and I am glad that I have found this school. Most of the other schools burden their kids with lots of homework. I don’t see the need to have homework for 4year old kids. Aren’t they suppose to play at this age? The reason why I enroll him to a kindergarten is because I want him to socialise more as he is very shy and not because I wanted him to learn more academically. I rather let him learn through play.
As for ZD, he is a very naughty boy. He is very different from his brother. While is brother is shy and introvert, ZD is more outspoken and extrovert. He will not hessitate to let you know what he wants and demands his way of doing things. Throwing tantrums are his favourite past time which is very annoying and bad. I have yet to find a way to control his behaviour. He is slow in his language development. Mostly, he will only say a word a time and can only pronunce the last syllable from a word. His pronunciation is out for letter f, s, k and g. I do hope as he grow bigger, he will be able to rectify this problem. Do I need to see a speech therapist? I do not have problems with ZM the last time as he was able to pronunce all letters except letter ’s’ and he outgrows it at a later stage.
As for myself, I have grown older and fatter. I am so ’see lai’ nowadays. Sigh……… this is my live.
