Racial Harmony Celebration @ Dayspring Kindergarten

Finally,its 25 July Racial Harmony Day @ Dayspring Kindergarten. I am all prepared for Wan Qi's fancy costume "parade". hahaha very excited about it.

Wan Qi woke up at 8:00am in the morning after she had her breakfast which is the usual egg and oatmeal, I let her do her kumon homework first before I prepared her for school.
At about nine o clock, I bathed her and changed her to her indian costume. But then I realised the top's button was torn (oh my goodness) so I quickly got a small safety pin to pin it. However, I realised that the string to tie her skirt is not secure enough so my mum quickly got a rubber and sew it. Haha my mum is an experienced seamstress so no pro. She did it in 5mins time.
After that I put the accessories on her forehead and let Wan Qi wore the bracelets that I had bought for her. Meanwhile, I kept shouting for Xihong to take pictures of Wan Qi.

The skirt length was just nice- just a little above her shoes but I thought it can be quite dangerous for Wan Qi so we decided to take a cab instead of letting her take the schoolbus in case she fall from the bus again.(touch wood) However, after waiting for a while, we decided to drive instead as there are no avaliable taxis at that hour 9 plus.
So my mum, Xihong and I sent her to school on this very special day. When we arrived, I decided to let Wan Qi stand beside the Singapore flag and take a picture. Coincidentally, her friend You Rui came along so I said why not take a picture together. And they did. Then came Wan Qi's Chinese teacher who was in a smart cowboy suit. So I took a picture of them too and Wan Qi was so happy.
In fact, all the teachers at Dayspring Kindergarten were dressed up in their traditional costume and they even have showcase of different ethnic group 's costume, food, bla bla. And the students also get to enjoy different ethnic group's dishes. I thought that was great. Back home, Wan Qi told me that she does not enjoy some of the food like the chilli rice cos it's hot. hee but she enjoyed most of the food.

After we sent Wan Qi to school, we immediately went to develop the photos as we bought a new camera and wanted to test the effect. Then both Xihong and I think that Wan Qi's friend You Rui is so much prettier than Wan Qi cos Wan Qi has a dark complexion. I told Wei Shan about it. And Wei Shan said Wow just by being fair will win ah. I repiled "Yes, the fair people wins and so Ada wins lo. Next time, I wont let Wan Qi take pictures with Ada. hee hee kiasu mummy."In fact, Xihong has been telling me that as Wan Qi grows up, she seems to be not so pretty. And then now many people thinks that Wan Qi looks more and more like me. Hey hey so what does that mean( :}

When I had my break during in school, I called Xihong to ask him did Wan Qi enjoy herself in school. She told me she did. He also told me that her chinese teacher compliment her saying that she is very pretty that day and guess what Wan Qi said. She told her teacher" You are also very pretty."Arent she a sweet talker.

But more importantly, the thing that made Xihong proud was when Wan Qi was waiting at the school gate, he told me that there was a commotion. Commotion? He said the parents were like saying wow Wan Qi is so pretty today. The bus aunty saw Wan Qi too and even asked the bus driver uncle to alight the bus to see Wan Qi. ok ok very exaggerating hor the proud Daddy talking about commotion. hee hee.

Well, but the effort goes to me la not that Wan Qi is pretty, just the colourful costume and accessories that I had chosen for her. Quite sad that Wan Qi didnt take after Xihong's fair complexion. In my mind I was telling myself must faithfully let her apply sunblock when she is bigger. Barbie Hsu is also quite dark previously ma so with constant effort, Wan Qi might be fair too hor. Yes I am the vain mummy lo, next time Wan Qi will also learn to wear fake eyelashes bla bla from her vain mummy. haha
