Best Friends 2009
Child, Preschool November 11th, 2009Yesterday, Binbin‘s classmate’s parents handed these photos to me.
It was such a nice thing to do isn’t it?
Because our sons love each other’s company so much, Y.J.’s Mommy took shots of them together again during the Full Dress Rehearsal on 7th November 2009 (Left: Y.J. Right: Binbin)
Though this is NOT the first time she has taken photos of the two boys together, but this round, she did something which caught me by surprise.
She was so super nice that she even took one shot which did NOT have her own son in it. This photo alone moved me deeply. (Left: Binbin Middle: Y.Z Right: H.S.)
I was busy taking photos and videos of my two boys during the Full Dress Rehearsal, but someone else was (secretly) in love with my son, to the extend of taking photos of him as well….. Aaawww…. my heart!
She did not forget to catch a shot of their teacher too, Miss N. (Left: H.S. Middle: Y.J. Right: Binbin Back: Miss N.)
Me: “Binbin, do you like Y.J.?”
Binbin: “Of cos! He always talk to me nicely. Play with me NICELY. Not like my other friends, play so hard and make me pain.”
Me: “So is Y.J. your Best Friend?”
Binbin: “No.”
Me: *Faint*
Binbin: “Y.J. is my Best Friend AND my Favourite Friend.”
AAaaawwww………
As for Keatkeat, his Best Friend was ‘forced‘ to change every year. Pretty ironical.
First year, Nursery was a boy named R. Unfortunately, his father passed away that year and the whole family had huge adjustments to make. So R. left the school.
Second year, Kindergarten 1 was a Malay boy named A. *Sigh* As if its a curse, his family was struck with a major financial crisis, the parents could not afford to put him in this school anymore. So A. left too.
This year, Kindergarten 2, last year in Preschool is a tall boy named K.Y. Their relationship was so close that K.Y. was extremely pissed with Keatkeat for not telling him that 2nd November was his birthday.
K.Y. came and complained to me when I brought the cake down to the school for mini-birthday-celebration, “Auntie, Cheng Keat didn’t tell me today was his birthday. I am very angry.”
Me: “Aaawwww…. why?…”
K.Y.: “I don’t have time to make a present for him! If I know today is his birthday, I can make him a nice card yesterday and give it to him today.”
Me: “Thank you K.Y.! You can always give it to him tomorrow. Look at J.W. he is making a Birthday Card RIGHT NOW for Cheng Keat. You can make one for him now too, if you want…”
K.Y.: “No I don’t want to make one now. I have nice stickers at home. I don’t have them here. I can’t paste it on the card for Cheng Keat. *Humph*” And the angry boy walked off with folded arms…
AAaaawww…..
Kids are still kids. They fight, they make up. At the Full Dress Rehearsal, they were seen with each other like shadows as if nothing has happened… (Front: K.Y. Back: KeatKeat) *Smile*
We adults should really learn this kind of mindset from them, ya? Let the bad feelings go…

It’s so heartwarming to read this. One of the best things for parents to know is that their kids are making friends in school, and have a best friend and buddy they can stick to.
And I like those photos of your boys, really handsome!

It so nice to know that our children can find a friend that they really connect with. My eldest daughter who is 24 still is very close friends with a girl she grew up with …my youngest daughter who is 17 still has some of the same friends she had in elementary school, she is now is grade 12. Yes it makes for fond memories not only for them but for us as parents.

How sweet. I wish I had more pictures of my friends from my childhood–it will be nice for them to have these pictures when they grow up.

I lost contact with my primary schoolmates, not to mention about kiddy… didn’t make enough effort back then to stay in touch. we parent plays an important role, to enhance the friendship of our kiddos.
Childhood friendship is so pure and precious. Like what you say, they fought and they make up again real fast. unlike we adults, can be so petty a times! ha!
