Selamat Hari Raya from My Mom's Best

Last week, Raya week have you go anywhere? We didn't go anywhere but stay back in Selangor. My dear has to work on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. So we didn't go back his home town, but we have a dinner family time with my parents and sibling at Cheras. Haven't wish my Muslim readers and friends Selamat Hari Raya.

If you have notice my blog url, it has changes from www.mymomsbest.us to www.mymumbest.com because I am not able to use the domain name of that anymore. It has brings me lots of memories in my blogging years. Special thanks to my blogger friend Leona for helping me with the domain.She's mommy of two boys just like me, feel free to visit her blog, she blogs of parenting, beauty and tech many more.

It's back to school and yesterday I have to drive 3 rounds to park near school to wait for son. Today even worst, I need to drive 6 rounds in to find a parking then I went to nearest bookstore to shop for son's history exercise book. He says it was missing not sure who took his book, last year it happened to him too and it took almost a month for the math book to show up again. But then I did bought the same book for him, else he would be punish by teacher.

Being mom of two boys, I have no transporter to fetch my sons. I fetch them, unless I have a media trip my dear would be helping me out during his lunch hours. My niece can helped if I am not able to fetch him but it depends too because when's she on college break and here, she can helped me out.

My son Standard 4 now and the exam is very tough. There's why he's attending the tuition at tuition centre. I didn't choose the tuition centre near the school as they only choose the children with good grades. Yeah they will check on the report cards and results of students before they accept them. They will inform you that if your child is slow you better not send there as they are learning fast. It's sad but this is true, as the admin lady of tuition centre told me and saying that if you want to let him tuition at the centre no problem but you have to risk it as he might not able to catch up. Not sure if he's going to go for tuition in school, for Standard 6 its compulsory to tuition in school.

Talking of education, his school uniform need to buy new pair soon as he's growing big. His white pair of shoes also need to change at least twice a year due to size. Now he's no longer using the trolley bag for school because the trolley bag's wheel broken or carrier is broken. He's using backpack and it's very heavy. Today many children are using trolley bags in school, I have seen Standard One children struggling to pull up their bag just a step away.

Parenting is we love and care want to give the best for our children. Always thinking what to cook for them, and for family too. Healthy meals are important for healthy body and mind.

Saturday afternoon outing with son

Look at this huge roti tissue, son cannot finish it alone so I ask my dear and family members to join me to eat. It is not cheap, Sri Melur restaurant is a famous restaurant. I don't know how they charge but my dear pay RM50 and balance he received is around RM2 plus change. It's my first time to order roti tissue there. We have ordered other food like tosai, nasi lemak, some fried chicken, etc.

This afternoon we supposed to purchase his BC textbook from nearby bookstore at the school. But the seller says that the books are still sealed in the box, we'll need to come back again next Monday to purchase. Son told me that now BC papers have two papers to do for exam instead of one paper. Oh boy! It's going to be hectic year for him and me.

Chinese New Year soon, have you start shopping for new clothing? I have enough of clothing and no plan to purchase any yet. His school going to start school tuition on 18 Jan, but son's not taking part as he needs to absent on Friday for outside tuition. So we decided not to give him tuition in school. Perhaps next year he can start tuition in the school, we'll see how it goes. He is poor in BM and BC, that's why now I have started him tuition in tuition centre instead of daycare tuition. Two years he was in daycare tuition and it didn't seem to pull up his grades.

He starting to like Chinese Calligraphy and class teacher has chosen him together with 14 students in class to participate in a contest. We don't know when is the contest but I told him that he'll need to practice to write perfect.

Chinese New Year performances at the mall, I have visited the Curve, you can click on the link to see more. Other than that, I have also upload photos and video to my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/mymomsbest/

Are you ready for school tomorrow?

Yes just a few more hours Sunday is over, we will welcome Monday and night needs to sleep early and wake up early to go school. My son maybe not use of it, he has been sleeping late for a week. Tomorrow teachers maybe see sleepy eyes of children in class.

Did you had a good time for a week of school holiday? My friend's daughter is having another week school holiday she is studying in kindergarten. Next year her gal will be same school as my son.

I am done checking his home works and books in his bag. His white shoes and white socks are ready. His school uniform is hang up. Hopefully I didn't miss out anything.
