The Forgotten Project!

After our home viewing, we headed back to Bukit Timah Plaza for our dinner(which we decided to pack home thereafter) although we've just been there the day before, 'cos we want to get home early.

On our way home, I suddenly recalled that the school has informed us, both verbally and in writing, that they 'encourage' us to do a family project for the new CNY - a hongbao lantern.  Alamak, I have totally forgotten about this! And why of all time, I only remember this now?  If I had recalled this matter a day earlier, I could have gotten some help from my sisters yesterday!

There are some caucasian friends in Renee's class and we're thinking, perhaps, we might not be the only one whom didn't submit the lantern on the 1st day(as stipulated).  We told Renee that she could tell the teachers that mommy has forgotten about it(I dun recall telling her about it, except hubby...) but she's anxious. So, within half an hour when we got home, I managed to come up with this(with her helping out abit), :) - hubby laughed at it, why then didn't he help to think of something else then? : {   At least I still come up with an idea and did one...

Is it sooo funny, this lantern?

 

With the last minute project to complete, Renee only went to bed, slightly after 8:30pm but she woke up around 10pm+ and told us that she couldn't fall asleep.  How could that be?  When I've gone in to take something and she hadn't stirred... I asked her if she knew I was in her room earlier, she looked blurr, so she had fallen asleep afterall and must have woken up in excitement, hahaha...

She couldn't resume her sleep and cried, fearing what I've told her - she needs to have enough sleep to stay alert in school.   No choice, I told her it's normal to lose sleep over something she's excited about and I'm sure many would be sleepy especially on the 1st day of school.  And since she's slept for a while earlier and she won't exactly be sleep due to excitement on the 1st day, she should just relax and think of something happy, like those Luge+Skyrides and she did, :)
