Halloween at School

First time at Camp Ooch downtown participating the Family Halloween Fest. It was fun filled from pumpkin carving, to haunted houses and different carnival games for the kids. Adrian dressed up as a Police this year for Halloween!

We had the first parent teacher interview this evening with Adrian’s class teachers. We were ecstatic to hear from the teacher that Adrian did exceptionally well at school. He’s progressing well on his Readers, will soon be introduced to rhyming words etc. The teacher also had him started writing story book (i.e. a page where Adrian will draw a picture on top and write a sentence or two at the bottom) and it’s not the first time we heard others’ comments (from both his class & Art class teachers) that Adrian is very creative and imaginative. In terms of Maths, Adrian has done all the basics and skip counting and is now moving onto the stamp game where addition will be introduced. Overall, the teacher is very pleased with Adrian’s progress at school. And we are glad to know his social circle has broadened – apart from hanging onto his best friend in class all the time, he’s having a bigger social circle and is making a few other new friends at school in this new school year.

Adrian spent the day at Blue Mountain with the grannies while we stayed home sealing the asphalt driveway on the Thanksgiving weekend!

We spent the day at the waterfront attending the Canadian International Air Show. The show runs for almost 4 hours and it's quite boring at times, but the kids had fun getting autographs from different pilots.

A Magical Day for all of us… Adrian's Wish of having a playroom makeover has finally come true! The first surprise started off with a limousine waiting outside our house to take Papa and Adrian for a day at the Wonderland while the IKEA crew showed up later for the makeover.

Though we've seen the floor plan of the layout, they wouldn't let us come down for a peek until the moment…. The Playroom was revealed to Adrian promptly at 4pm. Oh boy, was Adrian surprised!!!! The playroom is so colourful that it incorporates everything we had asked for (Adrian mentioned he likes red, rainbow colors. We wanted plenty of storage and shelves, an area for floor play and some frames for his artwork etc.). Adrian was a bit shocked afterwards and it sure takes time for all of us to soak it all in. It’s absolutely beautiful!

The MAW Slogan says "We grant wishes to Children with life threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy." We truly appreciate the effort and hard work from Make-A-Wish for making this happen, not to mention the planning and generosity of IKEA Canada & Sony Canada. We wish Adrian remain healthy and enjoy his playroom in the years to come!!

The Limo came to pick Adrian up for a day at Wonderland.


The "Moment": Surprise!
