On the last day of school before it breaks for CNY, there was quite an accident spill of black ink from korkor's tote for the short lessons day. It was already time to be out from our house, and the ink was dripped all over the place! The more we wipe it off, the more it spreads out and make the place messy. I couldn't bring myself to leave the mess and home like that to be cleaned up after dropping the kids off so we scurried and hurried to clean the place. I was major stressed, the bag, the books, the pencil box... it was disastrous!
Anyhow, we managed to get the cleaning up done quite fast and be in school before ... I don't know! What I do know is we are not the ones to be the last walking into the school. I really wonder, when does the last student arrive everyday at school actually? Cos it does seems that however late we are, there surely ARE some others who are later than us!
Korkor puts on a very sorry face, and remarkably, I didn't scold at him AT ALL! Though I did, admittedly, complained and whined and groaned while cleaning up, I didn't have the heart to scold him, as it was an accident. I just told him to take it as a lesson and always, Always, put the jar in black ink in a plastic bag. Hopefully he remembers that.
That was a major leap for me too in self controlling my temper.
