primary one

& an is...
in like with it for now...hopefully (all fingers + toes crossed) for the definite schooling years to come!
able to wake up at 6am or so without a fuss...thank goodness!
not intimidated by the bigger & much crowded school...phew!
enjoying his ol' & new schoolmates which is a major relieve.
able to part with hubs or myself when we leave his classroom in the mornings.
having too much fun that he forgets to eat what i'd packed for him during his 20-minute recess.
telling me to fetch him 3 hours later after school & mommy said, 'no!'
in negotiation with mommy so that mommy fetches him slightly later.
wanting to spend more time playing & talking to his newfound friends after school.
adapting & growing up.

a week of new hectic schooling schedule has passed & mommy is...

thanking GOD for his smooth transition to primary school.
seeing how he's becoming quite independent & doing more on his own.
very proud of her big boy!

the only one thing that mommy isn't so pleased with is...
the icky, mucky, soiled, white-turned-black school shirt, socks, shoes
& his super soaked, sweaty self that he came home in for the last 5 days*!

* i'm just so glad that he's not in an all boys' school
cos i can picture him coming home beyond comprehension.
the clorox company is (i'm very sure) sending me a thank you note pretty soon
for diligently using & will be supporting their products for yonks!
better still, they can cast me in one of their commercials anytime
cos i truly, with all my heart, in the last 5 days, understand what dirty laundry is!
this is no joke!
