Now that Foster has been going to school for almost two weeks, I got all the time to  clean our entire house. Some of the junks I got from garage sales are literally going to the junk and most of them will be donated to the Purple Heart. And then there are way too many stuff in each rooms we don't really need that would end up in the trash can, to Purple Heart, some I saved for the next year's garage sale and the rest I can probably sell online. I thought of sending them to the Philippines but they too have way too many junks there...haha.

I like the fact that I can relax a lot but still I can't get Foster off my mind. His first day at school was a little bit hard on me that I was crying from home all the way to his school. I was consoling myself that at least I won't yell at him anymore... Foster will learn a lot... he'll meet new friends. Its indeed exciting for us.

Back to his daily routine...

Foster is still having a rough time in school. He seem to have not adjusted well yet. His teacher, at least, told me that he's not crying anymore and is playing with his friends now. He's not eating his food much. He seem to be quiet everytime I come to pick him up.

Whats so nice about his school was the fact that the administrators and teachers has been there for many years now. Our separation with Foster on his first day wasn't that of a big deal. No drama. His teacher just told me “mommy, say bye-bye to Foster” and “Foster, say bye-bye to mommy.” Just like that and then he pick him up and went to the back door where the other kids were playing. His teacher made sure that the other children were at the back yard probably so that they won't stare at Foster. And so that Foster won't feel ashamed or embarrassed.

The other advantage is that the owner's brother, on the other hand, owns the gymnastic school at the back of Foster's school. So every Tuesday, There's a gymnast instructor who comes to their class to teach them some acrobats? Lol.

And then they are taught to play musical instruments, they cook and paint too. Last Monday, they listened to classical music. Fridays are swim days and pack lunch which should consist only of sandwhich, fruit and vegetable. Just like a regular school.

I've found out that Target store don't sell nap mats. I have to buy it online. Personalized ones are nice but expensive. So I am stayingclose to my budget (which is $25).
