You have turned seven this 18th august, 2009.
We have moved to Bangkok on 31st August.
You, like us, mourned this move and we were also looking forward to it for it opens up vistas of million new experiences. We stealed ourselves and prayed that with time, we will settle and enjoy.
For the first time, few days back, you told you liked your school in Bangkok. It meant so much to us.
We prayed that you get many friends quickly. You have few now atleast, last saturday, we were so happy that whole day you spent with Florian, his brother and his friend.
We see signs of things your school is imbibing in you. We are happy when you say, 'thats lame!'
From facination on cars in Manila, you have got facination for Lego now in Bangkok. Its costlier but we are happy.
You can spell now 'smear and scorch' which probably I struggled to spell when I in seven or eight grade.
Now this January, 2010, you will go for a field trip from your school. You, who have slept never alone. You, who still needs help in drying yourself after bath and thing I will not say lest it embrasses you!
It gives us goosebump. How will we stay for 3days and 2 night when you go for your field trip? Will you be able manage alone? Will you eat properly? Will you be able to sleep alone? What will you do if in night you want to get us and look for us? Will you drink enough water? will you be enjoying everything its meant to be? What will you do if you feel cold at night?
This will make you more independent and I dont like that though I know its good for you, my dear son. Thats the dellema all fathers suffer from and have to learn to come to the right decision.
How will I face the quiteness at home without you? Will we still keep the cartoon chanels on just to keep it familiar? How will we sleep without your warmth in the bed? Should we also checkin to the resort you will be paying? We arent allowed that we arent even allowed to alllow you to carry your mobile!
Mama asked you to practice sleeping alone. Your response, 'those who have brothers or sister, sleep alone, I will sleep with you.' It have a warm glow to our faces and heart.
We rejoice at every sign of your developments and we love the way you are. We love all the funny crazy things you do which makes us smile even after manydays when we think of it.
We know you will be taken care off. Yet, we cannt just believe that you are now grwon up enough to go to a field trip!
