Graduation

hubby had to work today so i went to amir's graduation day with tiza and tisu. the graduation was mainly for the kindy class while the rest of the students put up shows and received prizes for the year-end exam. amir got no 4 this time, he was no 2 during the mid-year exam.

i'm very proud of his achievement, he's able to tell numbers 1-6 and his a-f (not just recite but identify them as well). he also knows his jawi and is able to name different types of animals and body features. his arts and crafts results are better, he got a B compared to E last time around. he also got perfect marks for his malay and maths. i was not happy with his english at all, he only received 50%. obviously he converses in malay only at school. well, its ok...he's not even 3. but what happens when we change his school when he's 5? i plan to send him to an english-medium school will he have trouble settling in?

amir's class put on a dance routine. amir came on to the stage with his hands in his pocket. i think he was trying to stay calm. imagine coming in to a room of of parents with cameras and video cameras, all squatting down in front of the stage. he looked around the hall for us. when he finally saw us, he didnt smile. when the song started, he didnt do anything but clapped. i think the poor boy had stage fright!


next was asyraf's "cute baby" competition. it was for babies below 1. he was the only boy and couldnt compete with all the girls in frilly gowns and hairbands and hairclips. but he came home with a consolation prize. asyraf, you're still the cutest baby in my eyes...







ariff was there too. calmly waiting for the event to be over in his stroller...
