I can’t believe how half a year had gone by so quickly and we’re already in the middle of June 2015. And for us, it means Sophie has another six months before she enters Primary One! Where did my baby go?

But on the other hand, I’ve seen Sophie grown by leaps and bounds as she’s becomes a more confident, independent and outspoken little girl. Just this week, I met her childcare teachers for the half year PTM session and was pleased to hear how they had so much praises for her.

Picnic with her K2 class
I was shown some of her journal writings and was rather impressed by what she can come up with, both in terms of the content of her topics and the details that she goes into. As the kids are expected to write independently, she’ll come up with invented spelling of words that she doesn’t know how to spell and they were a pretty good attempt.

Clearly, she’s a little wanderluster too
I think this little one may have some emerging leadership qualities in her and the plus point is that while she’s able to lead, she also gets along well with her friends from all classes. I’ve got to agree with her teacher that she has a charismatic personality and always bring joy to everyone around her.

Hanyu Pinyin is not so tough anymore
Dear Sophie,
Mama’s so proud to hear how well you’re doing in school from your teachers. I always look forward to our nightly chit chat sessions where you’ll tell me how your day went, who received a green leaf from teacher, who didn’t take their nap or who celebrated their birthday.
It puts a smile on my face knowing that you’re enjoying school, learning new things even things which you told me were heard a few months ago like hanyu pinyin which you’re getting a hang of now.
Remember that to be better at something, we must practice and do our best. Don’t forget our song,
Go, Better, Best. Never let it rest. Till your good is better. And your better best!
Love you!
Your dearest Mama
