The Day We were suprised

rieIt was a last minute notice i received from her school's principal about the event.

The event was a very simple one. Lydia goes to a nursery, with kindergarten in it. It has a small number of students. I guess each class (by age) has 10 students. Just like my kindergarten more than 20 years back. So the event was also simple. There were not many performances as they were only few songs by the kids.


I was surprised when the emcee announced Lydia's name for the 1st place in 4 years old class. How can the teachers not telling me about this? Have they forgot or it's their style, to suprise parents, i seriously dont know. But if it is, they hv succeed. Me and my husband both suprise to hear Lydia's name called. Not that we think Lydia is not capable. We know Lydia is a smart girl. Her exam's results are excellent and her reading is also good. But still, why parents are not being told? i just dont understand. I told my husband maybe we should send Lydia to different school next year .. he said why should we? Lydia is doing fine in this school.So I said, but this school doesnt have the proper communication and their concert is not grand and the 6 years old class doesnt get to wear jubah konvo to receive scroll. And my husband replied, why is that very important to me? why a grand concert is so important to me? He see Lydia is happy in this school. Dont you think its going to be difficult for her to adapt to a new school? Dont you think Lydia's happiness is more important tha a grand concert? thats what he said. And he said the suprise for not getting any info about final result is quite cool. And jubah ?? that is not a big deal at all, we can go to any photo shop, rent one and take pic, if thats what you want.


Ok, he won.


And then, another award is for the Best Award. This time I hv expected that Lydia will be one of the 3. And she is. Emcee said that the best are choosen based on their achievement in 'Cahayaku' and their overall attitude and performance for the whole year.


wow.


I am a mother, and I am proud of my daughter. I am sorry if i overreacting but i suppose every parents will share the same feeling as mine.
