Graduation's done.

N had his graduation concert just a few hours ago. That marks the end of his kindergarten years. I think he has learnt well in his school and has been quite happy there. 

Time does fly! It wasn't too long ago that I remember checking on him on his first day as a nursery kid and when he caught a glimpse of me outside his school toilet, he cried! He has blossomed and grown so much through these 3 years.

It also wasn't too long ago that his first time being at the kindy grounds was when I was carrying him in my arms while he was having high fever during his Kawasaki Disease episode when he was almost 6 months old. Why was he there when he was so ill? At that time, we had just finished getting his blood tested at Mt A hospital (to test for KD) and we rushed like crazy to the kindy to see his oldest sister perform at the mini-concert in school. Now he is almost 6 years old and going to primary school in 2 months' time!

Which primary school is he going to? Remember I wrote about the divine appointment a few months ago? That we met my old friend and Hubby's colleague at a cafe at Gardens by the Bay? They advised us on how they got their son into the affiliated school and what we should do. Well it was really divine. N is going to that school! 

We are happy. We were actually also content to send N to the neighbourhood sch that is 10 min walk away from our new place as there was no news from that affiliated school ever since the registration exercise was over. Until a couple of days ago, when we finally got the news that N is going to that school. It is that famous Christian boys school. One that parents fork out a million or two to buy a property near that school to stand a higher chance of getting into that school. The one that parents spend at least 40 hours to volunteer at the school for the same intention. Or spend a few hundreds to join the school alumni if the were old boys of that pri sch.

We didn't have to do all that. It was God's hand. From moving Hubby to teach at his current school (instead of staying put in his previous sch), to having colleagues and friends encouraging and advising us to send N to that better (but MUCH FURTHER) affiliated school, to having that divine appointment. God was at work behind the scenes all along.

Thankful.

With much blessing comes great responsibility. Why that school? Let's see what God has in store for N, for us...
