First weekend after starting school
Gerald has adapted quite well to school. Not much crying involved though he has not really gotten the idea of listening to his teachers yet. He will sometimes wander round the classroom and start opening cupboards to search for toys. Hope he will grow more mature, sociable and disciplined as the days go by. For now, he is enjoying himself at home. I think weekends will take on new meaning for him as from now, he can only play to his heart's content on weekends.
Playing with a TV console game that yiyi got for him for Christmas.
Eating a banana on his own. We're training him to eat on his own now as the teachers in kinddy don't have time to feed the children. Of course there is a huge mess at meal times but I guess it is a skill that he has to learn sooner or later.

First Day of School
2008 marks the year when Gerald starts his journey of education. He is enrolled in Nursery this year and I hope that he will adapt quickly and adapt well. We are sending him to school to help him learn to socialise with other children and to hopefully learn some discipline like sitting still and obeying instructions from the teachers. I am both excited and nervous about his first day though he doesn't seem to know what is going on.Gerald in his new uniform.

Gerald at his first assembly. He seems to be thinking, "Am I supposed to do this everyday from now on?"
