April 8, 2011. It's a Friday and Justine's first day hi at his soon to be school this coming June. I enrolled him at
Holy Trinity Montessori School for a summer class for his assessment and preparation. I choose Holy Trinity Montessori School because the tuition fee is flexible as well as not much of expensive. I also heard good feedbacks from moms who's kids have been studying in this school. And the most favorable of all is that it's just a few blocks away from our house, so we will not be worrying about traffic if we woke up late...
Justine did great! I was actually kinda nervous on how is he going to behave, is he going to cry or if is he going to let me seat beside all the time while the class is going on. I've heard a lot of moms experienced such with their kids on the first day. Well it turns out Justine's did the opposite... When we arrived he just approached the teacher seat beside her and listened. His teacher even told me after class that his very attentive.
I personally drop and fetch Justine to school right now so I kinda feel the endless task of a single parent. I now usually have 3-4 hours of sleep because I need to wake up early and prepare Justine for school. I can actually just drop him and leave but since his class is just 2 hours I just wait outside or sometimes I do leave him if I have some errands in the city like grocery or pay bills. After we arrive home from school, will then need to prepare for lunch and then do blogging and work in the afternoon until dawn. Works interrupted from time to time during late afternoon because need to take care of Justine's dinner, after that Justine's study time and then bed time. Back to work after Justine's already asleep... Tough! :D
So mommies like me how was your kids first day at school? And which school are they studying?
