Tomorrow is the first day of School.
Yaya will be in Grade 5, toothless in grade 3 and baby is going to grade 1. I no longer will have to do three trips to school each day as baby will be attending full time school.

I had the three of them all to myself for 2 whole months and I have yelled at them innumerable times, scolded them for silly things, complained countless times that my back is aching because of them (because they wanted to sleep with me in my bed during school holidays) didn’t keep my promise to take them to Victoria island for storm watching, and told them umpteen number of times ‘in a minute’ which usually was never done in a minute let alone in an hour, swore at the guy/gal who invented school holidays and worst of all I counted the days to Sep 2nd, so I could regain my sanity.

Tonight, as I watch my children sleeping peacefully in their bed, I feel guilty.. that perhaps I have squandered 2 months of precious time with them.
As usual I think If only….
As usual time keeps slipping out of my hand and the idiot that I am, I never notice.
