Many things have happened since the begining of Year 2010. Maybe I shall start from Trenyce since she's the eldest hehe.
First week of school was a fresh beginning for Trenyce with many new things in line for her.
Firstly, we withdrew Trenyce from TMCK and enrolled her into Kinderland @YCK. Im glad she likes the school 没妄费我们的一番心血 (meaning wasted our effort). She loves the variety in terms of learning opportunities in the school cos they have music class once a week, computer lessons twice a week and lastly, exercise/physical lessons twice a week. These syllabus are not available in TMCK, you need to pay extra as after school curriculum. Hubby was worried in the beginning that she couldnt get used to the new environment and will have 'rejections' to attending the new school. Trenyce commented boring in her first week of school as the teachers have not followed the real timetable in order to give time to the children to build up relationship i.e getting to know each other etc. Luckily all's well after the first week when the teachers resumed lessons according to the timetable.
Secondly, her long awaited art class at NAFA has finally commenced lessons. She waited till her neck as long as the giraffe hehe...oh well, she simply loves drawing and sketching. Give her a piece of paper and pencil and she can sit down quietly at one corner 'self-entertained'.
Thirdly, we finally found her a swimming coach through one of her classmates' mother. The swimming lessons were conducted at Sengkang Swimming Pool, which was something similar to the old 'Big Splash'...very nice swimming pool. Kaden and hubby also joined in the fun and went swimming every week with 姐姐, but at a different pool so as not to disrupt her lessons. 姐姐 is easily distracted by her surroundings like if she sees us around, she will wave her hand at us rather than concentrating at her lesson etc. 值得安慰的是她终于学会浮在水上 (finally floating on water) after 5lessons. Compared to the first day where she sat besides the pool and cried and now she can finally float and submerged her head into the water, even the coach has no confidence that she could overcome the fear.... It was a GREAT achievement for my dearie! Trenyce, mommy just want to tell you "We are very proud of you!" We lok forward to the day you can swim on your own...hopefully the day will come soon! :)
