Calamity

Hibou is gone. I am very sad, because I love him. He's not actually an hibou ("owl" in French). Since I was very little, Papa has always sung the "Hibou-Cuckoo song" to me, using my toy giraffe as a prop, so I have always called him 'Hibou'.

On my way to Kids' Gallery this morning, I put him in the seat next to me, and forgot him when we got off the bus. I was thinking about him all through the class. I cried so much after losing him, and Lorielyn bought me two cars and a soft hippo to make me feel better. I sometimes want to take my friends when going out. Today Doggie and Mr Tiger went out with me out in my bag. I now wish I kept Hibou in my bag.

Papa said he put out an APB on Hibou - he phoned up the bus company many times, but nobody had handed him in. Papa said he hoped I learned my lesson. Goodbye Hibou :.....-0

Midnight visit to hospital

Duncan was ill since school started last week, and this week, I have been at home indoors for 4 days. I didn't go out once.

My two upper front teeth are getting very wobbly. With my two teeth sticking out, Duncan says I look like Mater.

On Tuesday, I lost my upper right front tooth. I woke up a few hours later and told Papa my ear hurt. Luckily, we live next door to a hospital, and Mummy and Papa took me to the Emergency immediately. The doctor saw to me and I was back in bed one hour later. Doctor said I had an middle-ear infection, and that I should stay at home and rest. I am not allowed to go swimming for two whole weeks.

Back to school today

I started the new school year today. I am in K3A; I have the same teachers and the same classroom. It was good to see my friends again. I also have some class-mates who I don't know - they just joined. Miss Elisa was very busy looking after the new class-mates' parents. Duncan was due to start at the same school today too, but he had a fever and had to stay at home.

After school, I had a swimming lesson with coach Lok.
