Both Started Crying....

Today was Le-Ann first day at the kindie. Dearie Suki enrolled her into the Q-Dees kindie near our house last Friday. Because of me too busy the last whole week, ended up Dearie Suki bring her to the kindie. Apparantly according to him, she quite like the kindie and little girl told Daddy that she wanted to go to school. So he enrolled her in and going to start her first day at school today.


Yesterday night, I was busy packing her stuffs and took out the new 'Reebok' shoes I bought for her during the RSH warehouse sale. 50% off and I bought 2 pairs, one for Le-Ann and one for Ee-Thern. Dearie Suki nagged me and said the kids shoes even much more expensive than his shoes. What to do, also bought already, can return back ah?


This is what you called 'Super Kiasumom'. Bought one size bigger, end up she got to wear Ee-Thern's shoe.

She is so happy with her new shoe.


This morning she woke up, very happy and as usual she said she wanted to go to school. Changed her into the uniform, get her school bag and happily singing in the car when both me and Dearie Suki send her to the kindie.

Then my poor Ee-Thern boy, cried and refused to get down at the babysitter house and kept asking for 'Cheh Cheh'. In the car I was telling Dearie Suki, looking at her pattern, I think she should be OK and won't cry. Reach the kindie, send her down, bring her to her class and I quietly sneak out from the room.

Wah seh, once she didn't see me, she cried like hell and I even can hear her voice from the ground floor. Really heart breaking to hear her crying and as though someone has torture her. I went up again and she stopped crying and once I leave the room she started again. Dearie Suki started to nagged me and asked me don't bother her so much. Just close one eye and go.

Stayed with her for an hour and I received a phone call from my 'STP'. This one I really 'beh tahan'. I tell myself not to blog about it, but I must blog it. I was actually on EL today cos I scared my Dearie Suki cannot managed alone. She called and questioned me, why I am on EL as I have to amend the price list to give it to my sales reps today. I answered her that my girl refused to go to school and I need to be here with her. And I told her I will amend the price list and emailed to the office later in the afternoon. At that time, my Le-Ann, kept crying and it is quite annoying when someone called up to make a fuss on some small matter. My fire really burning and I told her off, can't I do it later and what is the problem now! Supposed to take 1/2 day EL and ended up take 1 day EL cos I really pissed off.

Ended up, I myself also cried along with my Le-Ann. Alamak... so malu. Maybe I should learn to let go and let her be independent. Tomorrow, I will be back to work, and she will alone in kindie. In the afternoon, I have arranged her a transport to send her back to the babysitter's house. My biggest worry now, whether will she go up the car or not.

Poor little girl, cry till vomit in the class and even when reached babysitter's house also still crying and her mommy, me... still crying at home thinking of what her 'SOT' said to her.

is she afraid of her teacher or peers? try to get her to tell you. if the problem is because teacher threaten her or peer bully her then maybe you have to look into it.

If is just because she is new and can't adjust, then you really need to be like what you hubby said, close 1 eye and go, that helps the teacher too because most of them will stop crying after seeing that noone come to "rescue", especially after a few days. But of course, if this because of the earlier reason, then you know what to do hor...

Sue, hope you are feeling better. The 1st week of going to school for kids is always like that. You can see some parents stay in school with their children for weeks. It will get better for Le-anne once she find some friends there. Your STP is really heartless for saying that. Of course family come first. Don't mind her stupidity.

Gen said...

Aiyoh, I read already also cry. I dun have kids of my own yet but when I saw my niece cried in playschool, my heart 'sng sng', I also wanted to cry so I told the maid we should just let go and leave. Bo pian, that is part and parcel of life. :o)

JK said...

DOn't worry too much. It's normal that children cry when their parents leave. They will eventually be fine after a few days or a few weeks, depending on the child.

i send my younger daughter to a kindie in back home just for a month.before she went there she was very excited but after reached there she started to cry and refuse to go there the 2nd day!alamak..i think your daughter is the same as mine..it's normak i guess.my kids will look for each other if they are not together too.regarding your stp just ignore her.i think she is too rely on you.don't give her a damn.

Maybe you should just let your dearie suki take her to school. Last time my #1 even worse. Both she & the mei mei started at the same time. Ended up she was crying & had to go to her mei mei's class. Keeping her mei mei company konon!

Anyway, after a few days, they will get used to it.

You know, your STP really reminds me of my STP last time. Sama mia perangai. What to do, some ppl don't place priority on the family. Nvm, they will regret later for trying to make so much money until their kids are neglected.

Suesue, you're doing the right thing. Just don't let that woman bother you so much.

*hugs*

sigh... i hate it when people like ur STP asked me "what's ur priority?" sounds like threatening.. of cos we know what's our priority... i.e. Family always 1st. So inconsiderate of her!

Zooropa said...

1st thing 1st, I think u must let ur darling girl independent.

Re ur job, I think u encountered something very similar 2me last time but I resigned fast coz I know I can't work wth such kind of CRAZY WOMAN. She tot she is d smartest & everthing not doing in her way (alth trivial matters) she scolded me. She really diagnosed wth MAD COW DISEASE! If I were u, I'll quit the bloody job!
