With Adrian complaining about tiredness every day after school, we’ve decided Adrian will resume the napping routine starting today at school. Though Mrs Gordon doesn’t think he is tired and she suspects Adrian wanted to nap only because he wants to be with his best friend, we’ll see how it goes for a week. After all, his health is in top priority!

Adrian's first practice on Glockenspiel - we signed him up for the Orff Instruments class in the after school program at school.

Attended the Curriculum Night at school last night and was very well informed on what Adrian learns/will learn in the coming year. We feel very blessed to have Adrian under the hands of a very experienced teacher and TA. Even though we knew in advance that the teacher was not supposed to talk about each child’s individual progress, Mrs Gordon told me a little bit of Adrian after the Q&A session. It’s totally amazed to hear Mrs Gordon speaks very positive on Adrian – like how he knows all the phonic sounds and is able to make words in class (like CAT, MAT, BAT etc.) and she also compliments on his printing saying he writes neatly within the lines and so on. I was basically speechless and was too ecstatic to hear all about it. With me always worrying how Adrian is behind with his peers, Mrs Gordon reassured us that he’s NOT. That’s the nicest thing to hear for the day… Look forward to hearing more about Adrian’s progress in 3 weeks’ time during the Parent-Teacher interview.

The teacher from school called us this morning and suspected Adrian got pink eye (2 kids in the class got pink eye last week). Adrian has been sick (cough & running nose) since the beginning of the week and he did have lots of discharge from his eyes for the past 2 days. Mama went to pick up Adrian right away and brought him go see his pediatrician. Adrian remembers the setting in the doctor’s office and kept asking if we were there for the needles... The doc said he’s got an eye infection and URTI and prescribed him eye drops and antibiotics. Hopefully he’ll get well soon.
