It has been a while...


Today marks my eighth month working in the new company and living in a new country.
Little one is no longer little one as he turned into two in June.
He will be going to preschool in coming December.

As a first-time-mother, I have finished a book borrow from local library in order to have mental preparation on what to expect, prepare, pre-visit...

Book title: Getting ready to start school
By Netmums

Though it is written in compliance of UK rules and regulation, it is quite useful for reader around the world. As the book is divided into 6 parts -

Pre-school days
Finding the right school
Getting ready to start school
What starting school means for you
Starting school
Getting the best out of school life

It not only concern your child being in the school for the first day, observation of your child after school, encouraging your child if he/she does not pick up skill as other peers did, chance of behavioural change (to be clingy, bed wetting..) as well as mother who might have 'empty nest' syndrome once the child is going off to school.

Though it is possibly not the best book I have read, but overall it is a good start to get involve in preparing, planning for a new chapter of life :)
