We attended Parents Teachers Meeting at Ee Rynn's school. Ee Rynn was excited showing us her projects. She has 3 projects : Starfish, fruits and ice bowl fruit salad projects.
We cherished the moment. She would explained and described the details. Who draw this, who makes that, who write this, who create that and so on.
Waited for a while and we met her Mandarin teacher. She commented that Ee Rynn can see a link between the Chinese characters she learnt. Especially in recognizing Chinese character. She recognize the similarity of a character that can be used in different sentence that bring different meaning. After clarification of preparation for Primary One, we meet her K2 teacher.
The first comment was 'What I like about both of you is you guys are on the ball and current'. She has progress very well. She loves to learn new things, want to lead, want to contribute, able to express her thought and participate very well. You have supported her well at home. She is ready for Primary One. Continue to do what you are doing.
This opinion has make my day. When I have decided to stay home, I never thought of wanting affirmation from 3rd party. Nurturing our girls are our priority and laying the foundation in these crucial years is our decision. We never measure our sacrifice. This comment has once again reminded me that the 'result' of my effort is 'unseen' at times but the reward is enormous. I call it 'delayed gratification'. Unlike at work, we have 'to do list' and 'check' it once it's completed.
We can't 'complete' our task in building a family. It needs loves, patience, perseverance and passion! I would never trade my experience now with another job promotion.
I feel so blessed and priviledge too. Growing up with my girls has taught me many lessons. Thank you God for your guidance and assurance as our family grow together.
