I am...

READING The Whole Brain Child. I am only halfway through it but at this point, I LOVE IT! Highly recommend it! 

PLANNING to move to Aussie! My hubby has decided to take on a new challenge in pursuing his Masters in Education there. I am eager to embark on a new journey and experience teaching in a different culture! I just know that I will thrive there. 

FEELING mixed feelings. I am eager, excited, worried and uncertain at the same time. 

NEEDING a short break! Caring for myself is important so that I have the energy to care for others. :-) 

Words to Remember

"A child's laughter and tears have equal importance. I would not want to take away from him disappointment, sorrow, grief. Emotions enable character. The deeper we feel, the more human we become."

I am a trainee play therapist! The door has always been open for me to continue my studies and I have finally found the course I want to pursue! It has been an amazing journey of self-discovery. I have learned so much and I am filled with the desire to learn so much more! Part of the course is to complete 100 clinical hours and I have started clinical work in a centre which has an early intervention program for children with special needs.

I am homeschooling a 4-year-old. I quit my job at the preschool because I wanted to focus on my studies and clinical work. Not wanting too much commitment, I am homeschooling 3 days a week at the moment. It has been so much fun and I am enjoying the process. 

I am still teaching part-time at TweedleWink. I am excited by the new things they add every year. I do love their unique philosophy and teaching method. Can't believe I have been teaching here for more than 7 years! I love all the children I teach and it just doesn't feel like work sometimes. 

Overall, I am really REALLY enjoying my journey in 2017 so far. I am focused, driven, not stressed, well rested, and most importantly, doing it happily with all my heart!
