Happy First Day of School!

During vacation, Addy was telling me how she missed her teachers and classmates in her old school so I was a bit worried of how her first day in the big school would turn out. She also became a bit clingy, she doesn't want me to go somewhere without her. 

First day of school, I accompanied her. I'm proud to say though, that from Nursery to Junior Kinder, she never cried during first day of school. But there might be a different story this time. While on our way to school, Addy was asking a lot of questions like, "Are you gonna wait for me?" and "Will you just stay near the door [of my classroom]?" So I was thinking, I should ready myself, it looked like someone will cry later. We were a bit early, she was the first one to enter the room, but after less than five minutes, few of her classmates arrived. At first, she picked a place where no one was there but her. Then, her classmates' parents invited her to join the group for some first-day-of-school pictorial. She joined them and she started to mingle with them. I was relieved. When I told her that I have to leave her, no violent reaction at all, just "see you later mommy." I was so proud of my little girl!

At first, she chose to be alone.

Then, tadaaa! All smile with her boyfriends (LOL). You can see that her smile here is a lot happier than the first one :)

Going home, she was very enthusiastic in telling me how her first day of school was. "Mommy, my teacher's name is Grace. Then I have another teacher, she's Teacher Jelly, but she's not a food, it's just her name is like a food." Hahaha! She also showed me her purple paper puppet that she made. 

I am happy knowing that she enjoyed her first day in school. I am hoping she'll enjoy the coming days as well. But knowing Addy, my cheerful and friendly Addy, I know she will. Besides, I'll be here for her during the tough days if there'll be any. I'm so glad that I didn't miss this part though. :)

Meanwhile in our home,

Daddy had to take care of the twins, it's a good thing he's on the afternoon shift.
