Mother hen and her chicks

Like a mother hen who protects her brood I aim to give my kids the best guidance possible. In 2013 I am going to focus more on spiritual growth for the kids. Many a times we are caught up in pursuing academic excellence that we neglect the important of their spiritual development. I have talked about how I will be going about achieving my resolutions and goals in previous posts. I will be setting goals for the kids too for them to achieve.

With so many chaos in the world nowadays it is important to have GOD as your anchor so that you are able to battle any storms and tribulations which may come your way. I’m focusing on a closer walk with the LORD and am going to bring the kids along for the ride.

We will be going through the bible and also adjusting the way we pray together as a family. There will be more focus on GOD as the center of the family and our pillar of strength. I will be incorporating teaching of spirituality and moral values together with their existing academic progression schedule which I had mapped out for them.

I believe in a holistic development of a child and to provide support in all areas of their development so that they will grow up to become well balanced adults.

What are your plans for your kids this 2013?

This week the theme is on Commercial Jingles so I have chosen this one by Cold Storage to remind myself that I have the “Whole World in My Hands”

Doggie boy in his new uniform

This week marks a new milestone in Doggie boy’s academic life. He is formally in elementary school now since the new term has just started. My little boy is now in a “big boy” school and is no longer a pre-schooler . He now has to be more independent and learn to tackle problems on his own. Lesson time is longer and he gets to handle money to purchase his own food during recess.

Doggie boy has been really excited and is looking forward to going to school everyday. It’s great that he is so enthusiastic about school and open to making new friends and embracing all the changes that he is going through. It is still orientation this week and lessons proper will only start the following Monday.

Doggie boy doesn’t know what will be expected of him as yet however I’m sure that he will be able to handle whatever challenges come his way. We will always be there to support him and give him the guidance he needs. All the best in Primary 1 dear.
