February
As I watched Aisyah board the van for the first time last month, my last image was of her terrified face as the van drove out of the carpark. It was her first time afterall and I felt bad afterwards.
She refused to go to school the next morning, saying that she didn't have any friends. She would purposely wake up late in the mornings (her van comes at 0745hr) for the next few days making her miss her van. I persuaded her, promised her a brand new bike (which we later bought since we are going to get it anyway) and even threatened (i know I'm a bad Ibu) to take away her new bike.
I met her teachers and informed them of Aisyah's reluctance to go to school. Talking to your kid's teachers do help a lot because things got better after that for me. I'm glad to report that Aisyah has adapted to her school routine remarkably well now...Alhamdulillah. She even does her homework diligently now with lots of motivation, of course.
