Cutty

Sept 18 marks the last day of Johann's Gymbabes class. We signed up for this class when they offered 24 sessions for their usual rate. Johann was 11mos old then. As a parent, I never regretted enrolling him in this class. This is where he learned to explore the different activity stations. This is where he became aware of his love for balls. He was exposed to "small people" other than himself. Most importantly, this is where he learned how to walk and run on his own. I'd like to share with you some unforgettable Gymbabes moments: 1.

I signed up my little boy for the Gymbabes class a few months ago. He was less than a year old when we first started. Hourly sessions are twice a week. Each session would have time for singing, active play in the stations, massage, book reading and parallel playing. I am quite thankful for this class because this is where Johann learned to walk, climb ladders and cross tunnels. Prior to Gymbabes, Johann can only walk a few steps. I didn't realize that when I enrolled Johann I'd have to be more responsible as a parent. At this stage, I am already misplacing reply slips inside my cluttered bag. It also took me several weeks before I finally submitted an ID picture and a 4R photo of my little boy. I am sometimes late in driving him to school. I have to get my act together. I can not succumb to laziness anymore. I have to sleep now. Tomorrow is a school day.
