Rachel’s performance in concert and then back to being ill
The play-school RACHEL attends held a graduation concert for their children, where the eldest children going to primary one next year were the highlights, and everyone else moved up to the next class.
With her contracting HFMD earlier, I was quite afraid that she would not have learnt enough to perform during the concert, but luckily, her dance was taught and rehearsed in time. I was also afraid of her getting stage-fright on seeing so many people viewing their concert, but she was not too affected (probably didn’t understand what was happening at first) until the finale, where she had to appear in front of the audience for a second time.
I think because the play-school was not exactly sure if she was participating in the concert, so they slot her in a corner during the performance. But she easily caught the neutrals’ attention as she was lively and energetic during her dance. Atta girl!
The next day, however, she vomited a few times and had diarrhoea. Sigh. Think she caught viral flu. The illness has, somehow, found its way to FELIX as well and our poor boy is now still sick. They are both on the way to recovery, but I wish it could be sooner… My mother is also down with something like that too. Sigh, this December holidays is a short enough one for me already, but to be ragged by these illnesses coming one after another?
We are still at crossroads in deciding about a couple of things, mostly due to YEN’s hectic schedule at work and our needing to tend to the children. We have not decided on our third child’s name, and whether we want for sure to employ a domestic helper. I will be beginning my stint with a tuition agency to try my hand at it for the first time this Friday to gain some experience in it, while making some extra dough in the meantime. Cash will come in handy during a global economic crisis like this!
