Changes. Some are welcomed. Some are not.
2007 began as a different year which I had expected in 2006.Zoe was registered with Jurong Primary School and due to begin her Primary One life last Wednesday. However, mummy and daddy dears sought for deferment for her. Getting an approval was easy. I see it as better for her that she has another year in preschool to get ready for the bigger school. Furthermore she is a year 2000 baby, which means she will have to compete with the same 46000+ children her age in every phase of their education and even possibly including job search.
Getting Zoe to come to terms with this deferment was not easy. She understands that she is already 6. She looked forward to going to a big school like the rest of her peers. She looked forward to growing up.
Sorry, little angel, I have to dash your dreams for a year. I have Zane to consider too. So, mummy really have to slow you down a bit.
By God's divine intervention and provision, Zane was offered a place at AAS. He was suppose to start EIP with Fei Yue, but somehow, AAS called and granted him a place. Even though the timing isn't too ideal as Zane can be rather sleepy during the sessions, I am glad that he was able to survive through each session so far.
There are changes requested from Zane's school. Firstly, he is on half day care now. That also means once I'm done at my school, I've to drop everything or carry outstanding work back so that I can pick Zane by one. Before reaching his school, it will be a bonus if Zoe gets to eat her lunch. If not, it will be late lunch for her. Not ideal definitely, but can't be helped. I really pray that the shadowing arrangement will really work out. If Zane were to quit school, that also means I have to quit too.
I can quit my job, but hopefully after I complete this year? I've started in what I've proposed to do, I don't wish to stop or ... play my school out. I really wish to graduate with all my 23 babies.
Lord, please, shine Your Light that I may know which are the correct steps to take. Through all things, trials and pains, may Your Name be glorified still. Please give me the supernatural strength that I need. And please continue to help me to keep my heart soft, especially towards people.
In Jesus Christ's Name, I pray. Amen.
Love,
Jesselyn
