As a Mom, it always excites me when Xavier has school activities. It is always a major event for me when he has school activity. I always give time to all his activities and I wanted to be present in any of it.
He is also very proud if I went to his school. He always introduced me to his classmates. It is a nice feeling…
So when I found out about the Moving Up, I was so excited.
When I first enrolled Xavier, I never thought that he will like school. Para sa akin gusto ko lang sya magkaroon ng socialization kasi masyado na syang bratty sa bahay. Parang palagi syang galit at gusto ko din syang matutong makisama sa ibang bata.
So yon, I never pushed him hard to study. Kung ano lang yong kaya nya, hinahayaan ko sya. Hindi din kami nagrereview kapag exam na nya, hinahayaan ko syang matututo on his own. Ayaw ko syang higpitan kasi gusto ko mag enjoy lang sya kasi Nursery pa lang naman sya. Baka kasi kung higpitan ko sya baka ayaw na nyang mag school. So para sa kanya naglalaro lang sya sa school.
But the good thing about sa school nya, tinuturuan talaga sila lalo na sa behavior nila. Malaki ang naging improvement ng behavior nya. Natuto na rin syang makisama sa mga kaklase nya. He learned so much. I am so proud of him.
Natuto din syang magsulat at magbasa. Eto pa mas nag improve pa ang vocabulary nya. He can talk straight and has never ending questions. I just need to develop his tagalog, kasi gusto ko pa rin na matuto syang makipag usap kahit kanino. I know eventually he can do it.
Everything he does is important to me. It is like an achievement on my part.
As a Mom, it is my dream to my kids to finish school. So medyo marami akong frustrations sa part na yan. When I found out that Gareth is a special child, I know that he can’t go to a normal school so I just let that dream away. When Ayumi was born, I was so excited for her to go to school but still it never happened.
So when Xavier was born I was not really planning his school. Unlike nong kay Ayumi na may mga plano ako kung saan sya magschool. Pagdating kay Xavier, hindi ako nagplan, kasi natatakot ako. Basta hinayaan ko lang. Kahit nga nong baby pa sya wala ako masyadong plano. Gusto ko spontaneous lang lahat. Maraming nabago sa akin nong kay Xavier na. Bihira akong magpost ng pictures nya online at magkwento about him online kasi madami akong takot or gusto ko nakaprivate lang sya.
But lately, madami na kasi syang pinapakita na kabibohan kaya hindi ko na maiwasan na hindi ipost. Kaya minsan magpost ako sa FB pero after ilang araw nakaprivate na ulit yon.
Anyway, I never expected the award kasi para sa akin nag eenjoy lang sya sa school. So malaking bonus na sa akin ang award nya.
I am just so happy for this award and so proud of him. He will be turning Kinder 1 and this time tuturuan ko na sya sa academics nya ng dahan dahan para alam na nya ang responsibility nya.
That’s it!

We arrived in F1 hotel in BGC around 9pm. So Xavier and Kzandria finally meet. They got along immediately and started playing.
I was having a meeting and I let Xavier go with us. We arrived around 7pm in a meeting place so we had dinner first.
