It's not hard to be left out when you have a little sister's who's experiencing many 'FIRSTS' this year. Letitia was very patient and indeed sailed back into the school year quite hassle free and happy. This year, Letitia had her favourite teacher again as her class teacher. This teacher actually requested to 'follow' this class up the ranks in view that she has lots of ideas and creativity to make them do well in school. Except that, in Primary 3, the class size grows and this poor young teacher has the BIGGEST class of all of 43 kids. Phew! Am often praying for her and feeling like she's got it tough... from a mother's perspective, I barely survive juggling TWO and yet, she has 43!!
Letitia has to wake even before the sun rises around 6am every morning in order to get into school by 7.10am. School lessons starts at 7.25am. She has an extremely long day as it finishes at around 1.25pm with an occasional 'extra' events continuing till 4pm. Being a light eater, she'd rather skip morning tea and head to the library to check out the latest books. Thus when come lunch time (late!), she's starving...
Letitia is our Ms Initiative as she's happy to get on with all the homework available for the day. Often, she's so tired that I will have to FORCE her to have a nap, yet she'll fall asleep mumbling that she may not finish her work. And yes, we have A LOT OF HOMEWORK, some of which is too tough for my housewifey mind to understand.
Letitia asked to take a picture in to hot midday sun. Poor thing. Her eyes are unable to open as she is on Atropine drops that dilate her pupils making her reliant on her transitional glasses to protect her. So when it's bright, you'll see her eyes closed shut (body's response).
This is my happiest moment EVERYDAY when I see her running to me. She is home now. Safe and can rest till the next day of 'education' in the little red dot!
