Slug is having his haircut while the other 2 happily got a free pass on screen time. 

The wondrous thing is that we could all be here, with corners to be in, not feeling claustrophobic, not feeling warm, perfectly settled in. 

I love The Alcatraz.

It's the 2nd day of school and with a great stroke of luck, an excursion to Kin Yan Farm is organized. It makes easing him into school easier. 

2 girls wanted to be close but Fei displayed disinterest. I'll give him some 15 years. It'll be a different matter altogether then. 

Farm visit was not made conducive for the kids. Demonstrations conducted were more for adults, place totally not for kids. No playgrounds, no proper washing areas, nothing to make the kids want to return. It's all business. 

Lunch was held in school and I brought him home. It's only the 2nd day and he wasn't ready. 

On the 5th day, I left him in school. Screams could be heard and the teachers managed him and he stayed till 5 pm. He emerged from the center all smiles. There were presents given out for children's day and it eased him into the program.

Another milestone reached!! Fei starts Nursery today. He's doing ok, kudos to Slug for helping out. The difficult part was him refusing to bathe in school, ate very slowly and not participating in conversation with classmates and teachers. But this is typical of first day schoolers. 

He lost his head around midday and I got scratched, as a result. 

School tires him out mentally, evident from napping on his own at home, no struggles at all.
