The girls have grown real fast and I can’t believe they’ll be 5 years old in another 6 months. Last year, I was already thinking of enrolling them to a toddlers school but hubby decided not to and let the kids play for another year. I knew I could trust his decision because last year, both of them already know how to write their names and some words. They started reading and are continually learning new words each day. So the schooling was postponed to this year.

As I look back, I saw their picture when they were still in NICU, 12 days after they were born. Just look at how tiny they were then. 3.3 lbs – both of them.

But now, they are ready to go to school, play with other kids and mingle with different people around them.

Oh I am getting nostalgic, I tend to recall my school days too! A lot of classmates and playmates running around the school ground before the flag ceremony. Cleaning of classrooms before and after class and making sure that everyone wears their cover shoes so the floor would always be clean and shiny. I just wish we had disposable shoe covers before so I won’t have to worry about cleaning it everyday.

Will they be OK at school? That is the question I always ask myself. I tend to be overprotective and I can’t let go. I am not sure if I’d be able to send them to school daily but for sure, my family will be here to support us. These times are when I wanted to just stay at home and be a mom and wife. LOL. Anyway, I know they’ll be alright. They are ready. All I need to prepare is myself.
