Assalamualaikum...
When I first give birth to Imani, I have fully prepared by all the expectations and responsibilities that carry with the little bundle of joy. From readings, from own experiences with my nieces and nephews and from the surrounding am in.
The first few years were and still are challenging. Sick, fever, visits to paed, learning new stuff, listening (and receiving) lots of advice from others. And vacation or any sort of entertainment was not difficult to manage since I have to schedule Hasif and my calendar only.
Once Imani in Primary 1, everything changed. Our calendars are most affected by her school calendars. The daily family routines are also dominated by her school timing. And once Harith joins his early school, the challenges are super real. With home works, expectations, school activities etc etc .. and those are only few of it.
So, when we discuss what to add on for the kids co-curriculum, we are extra cautious on what to enroll in, its expectation, the result to our kids and the most important is, whether the timing is suitable with the main academic expectation at school. Thus we left only with Karate, Art and Swimming for the kids.
So here we go, Sunday gone for Imani karate class, sitting on the floor waiting for her training to complete, with the heavy rains blanket the whole area. When most of the family are resting at home with their kids, the parents are here, waiting patiently theirs.
Good luck kids. Hope you realize how fortunate you are to have this blessing: to be able to top-up your skill AND parents who are fully supporting of you.
Be glad. And be humble.
