Mixed feelings

After 7 years in Jakarta , this December 2018 we are saying farewell to our life and friends here.

Next week will be the final week of school for Term 1. Final and last term for me and my kids.

How all my 3 girls started their early years and primary years here.

To them , BSJ is their first school. And forever it will stay embedded in their minds.

It's the first school for my eldest. She was supposed to join Standard 1 in KL. But joined Year 2 when we moved here 7 years ago.

As for Aisyah and Alya , both joined the Foundation Stage at BSJ for 2 year before moving into Primary school.

How luckily they are to be able to join this great early years programmes. One which is different from back home in KL.

Of course 2 years in Tadika bunga tulip for eldest really paid off as it helped her a lot in Year 2.

Allah is the best planner..no doubts in it. And forever and always we will stay thankful to Him.

Throughout that 7 years in BSJ, me and my girls have become the regular faces that you will see in school. Both at drop offs and pick ups.

Having all girls leave me with no choice of not sending them to school. So Alya and Aisyah used to tag along to school before they join school.

And that how Alya became that time reminder for all those we have seen in school. A reminder how time passed by so quickly . A reminder of how old we have become as we see Alya grew up from being just a 3 months old baby to a friendly 7 years old girl.

Dedicated and friendly teachers had come and gone by through that 7 years. And how they have touched and leave good memories in me and my girls.

Until now my girls still remembers Ms Deborah O'callaghan , Ms Emma Russell , Ms Jeanette Sy .

And soon we will remember all the teachers in BSJ.

These days im school you will see me long hard and long of each things . If only what I see can be straight transferred into a video or pictures that me and my girls will forever cherished in the future.

We always pass by the kiddy pool . And how I can see Aisyah and Alya swimming there for their first time.

This last 3 weeks Arissa and Aisyah didn't get to do their swimming after school activities. Luckily I had look hard and long when I had the time ..with Alya . How we both always waited and sit at the shaded swimming dock whenever her big sisters are doing swimming.

And yes , I took endless photos of it. 😢

It's hard when you have lived quater of your life long in one place. Hard to leave when you have made good friends .

Friday franctic

Afraid of see what next Friday will be.

Usually we were the ones who saw sad teary faces of those school leavers and their family.

How we were the ones who witness friends hugging the leavers . And how moms also hugs their friends for the last time in school.

So comes this Friday , me and my kids will be trading our places as leavers of BSJ.

I do know for sure how it will turn up my Year 9 daughters. Deep down inside I am dreading that teary scene.

As for Aisyah my girl in Year 5 and she is just 9, she may cry at pick up or in a car. This too I just don't know what should I do or say..

And as for my 7 year old girl Alya , she might be indifferent to this..but she will join Aisyah in crying later.

And me ? Well , I wish I don't have to cry..for I wish to be the strongest one to support and hug my kids in that last bye bye moments ..
