Sometimes, I find meaningful words/verses/phrases and I do a screenshot of them. But somehow, an idea struck me today and I thought, “Why not just do a weekly Sunday thing?” Just in case the phone dies and the screenshots disappeared *choy!*
First week of school is madness. Foreseeing that the coming week will be equally crazy – workshop, contact time, class decoration, meet the parents, setting paper. I need help! STRESS!
Took my first MC on Wednesday because I was so giddy and had the remnants of flu from last week. The world spins even when my eyes are closed. Then on Thursday, the cold symptoms appeared. Cough, runny nose and escalating temperature. Still sick now 😦 Planned to clean the room tomorrow but guess I have to shelve the idea. Need to be fully recovered to take on the challenges next week.
I’m still trying to get to know my kids and I’m missing P2 Care (2015) very much. Their independence, their helpfulness. I hope they are all adjusting to P3 well. Anyways! Can’t wait to get closer to my kids this year and hopefully I can make a difference in their life.
I pray for strength, wisdom and courage this coming week. May it be grace-filled, favour-filled and fruitful. Amen!
