Heaven went to toddler class this week at the Integrated School for Young Children, a progressive school near home. Nanay took him to his first day. Tatay went on his second day. We both feel proud that Heaven behaved well, played with toys, was friendly to his classmates, and responsive to his teachers.
After school today, he quipped: "Ang galing ko no, Tatay!" "Yes! You are!" I said. That's positive reinforcement but I hope he doesn't get swell-headed. Because, we still have a looooooong way to go.
A month ago, good friend and former colleague Atty. Any Saguisag said: "Can you believe it, Nilo? I will be 40 soon and have a daughter in college."
I replied: "When it's my turn, this will be my version --- Can you believe it? I'm 40 and my son is in pre-school."
