The Lives of 2 beautiful souls + 1 more..*love*

Photobucket's down so I cannot carry on with the previous entry.. :P

On Wednesday, my school was celebrating Cultural day..Everyone(students and teachers) are told to wear cultural dresses from different parts of the world..Since Deepavali's around the corner, I was dressed in my retro lilac punjabi suit, which I can't show cos Photobucket's down..Heh..

I know that my previous workplace, JK, will be coming as a cultural exchange..I assumed that the childcare division would be coming..But..

Little did I expect to be shocked till I had to contain my tears..

I saw them..

Who?

My ex-students..

They were 3 when I left..They were the babies in the school as they are in the playgroup class..Some in pampers..Some being toilet trained..All adorable..

They are 6 now..

Goodness..

When they walked into e hall, I gasped..Tears came to my eyes..

I could barely contain myself..

My babies......

How big they've grown..

From being the babies in the school, they are now the eldest and are in K2..

I could instantly recognize them..

Goodness..

My body was shaking..My eyes were tearing..When some were invited to dance, I nearly cried cos they are so adorable!!

If you are wondering whether I went up to them and see whether they could recognize me, I didn't..

I couldn't..We were sitting far apart..

:(

However, I managed to talk to my ex-colleague and I was so happy to see her..

When the assembly ended, I went to my class and held my girl's hand..I looked to my ex-class..Watching them walk away..Then, I looked at the girl whose hand I am holding..

A wave of emotions overwhelmed me..

I realized that all these years of me developing to be an educator, my first class is still my fondest..

I was devastated when I left..Took me couple of weeks to get over them..

But the act of me leaving them still hurts.. I remembered how my colleagues told me my babies kept asking for me..*wipes tears away*

I realized now how much I still truly miss them..I remembered how much fun we had..All the laughters..All the tears..

And..

Now, when I see them, I too see how I've grown..

I am at somewhere else where I am contented..

I am at a great school where there is a totally different environment..

I am learning more and am enjoying every moment..

Alhamdulillah..

My babies,

I am so happy to see all of you..You are all so big now..I doubt if you can remember me cos you were only 3 when I left..But I do remember you..I will never forget any of you..I was and still am fond of all of you..You are my first class..You made me who I am today..I learnt to be an educator through you..

Kisses and hugs,
