My Friends Called Me…

Child

Because of this super exciting event (to me), now my boy has a new nickname:

“Vampire Zac”

I giggled when he told me.
“So do you like this nickname?” I asked
“Yup! Better than ‘Taekwondo Boy'” He sneered

“What’s wrong with ‘Taekwondo Boy’? You ARE a boy learning Taekwondo, isn’t?” I questioned
Yes, but ONLY one person calls me ‘Taekwondo Boy’ and I don’t like the way he calls me!” He argued.

“So its him that you don’t like and not the nickname, right?” I probed further.
“Don’t like the name and the boy!” He snapped.

Well, I guess when you REALLY don’t like something, even if it makes sense, the negative feelings just refused to leave…

Swimming Lessons for Kids

Child

Yippee! Its good news!

Remember my previous post ‘Swimming Lesson Plan‘, where I was weighing the Pros and Cons in continuing the swimming lessons at $90 for 4 lessons for each child?

One day before payment day, on 1st April, Friday I received a message from coachV saying that everyone in the class is continuing. So I was expecting to pay $70 per child instead of $90. Somehow, something in me felt that it was an April Fool’s Day joke. Then again, coachV did not look like one who would play such pranks.

Then, a pleasant surprise came when I brought the kids to the pool.

A couple was talking to coachV at the pool before the lesson began. And in less than 1min, the couple ‘signaled’ their son, who was probably 1 to 2 years older than Keatkeat, joined the class.

Double Yippee!

Thus with 5 kids in the class, I need to pay $120 only for TWO BOYS! Yeah!

So it WAS an April Fool’s Day joke! I get to pay even lesser! *giggle*

For the kind of attention coachV is giving to my kids and witnessing their improvements every week, I am more than happy to pay $60 for every 4 lessons!

*Super Grin*
