This is Farhan on his first day away from home…that was yesterday. And for the first time in 35 years, I had to spend a full day at a kindergarten. Today, I sent him there again and left him. He cried and yelled and whacked his class teacher…but I was advised by the Principal to leave him there and let him “grow up and grow out of being too attached.”
It was sad watching him there…apart from the stupid deployment in Langkawi, and my occassional dive trips, he’s never really been separated from me. Well, the deployment in Langkawi wasn’t stupid. The people who had wanted it there were stupid.
Although he’s just turned 4, he’s really 5 this year. He’s a grown-up boy now.
