28 Sept 10

28 Sept 10

Today is Charlene's first day to school (Rainbow Centre Yishun).

She slept the whole morning. When we stepped out of the house, she opened her eyes to look around. Our neighbour volunteered to give us a ride as they are sending their grandson to nursery and it was on the way. So, we went back to the house to rest first. The moment my mil sat down, Charlene slept. Is she bored of the house? And when we set off again, she woke up, looking around. So amusing. I thank God for sending us free transport.

Charlene is a very good girl. She whined and complained but she did not cry loudly during class. The therapists came to do exercises with her and gave me homework to do. The main focus is to train her neck control and head control. They suggest putting Charlene on her tummy (in prone) as many times as possible in the day. They also say not to carry her unless necessary. Let her sit upright and support her head if it bobs down.

  1. Heh Alicia and Desmond,
    Jaclyn here ( ex colleague from TPJC). I heard about baby Charlene and your blog from Wendy. Sorry i will not be able to catch up with you all as i will be returning back to Holland tomorrow.
    However i will be praying for you and your family back there and will be reading and keeping up to date on the blog.

    Charlene is a fighter and i am sure she knows that you all are fighting along side her too! May God's abundance love and grace overflow in you and your family's lives!

    Agape,
    Jaclyn Cheng
