Frankly speaking, Joe is okay with whatever decision I made. He is afraid that I am the one who could not handle the kids and MIL. To go back earlier means kids will be able to get used to the Singapor Education system right from the start with their peers and they might feel better. If they were to go back in the middle of the year, they might have a hard time trying to know everyone and catching up the school work.
As for staying here, Joe will be happy and yet stressed at the same time. Happy as he has me to take care of his needs and whatever problems we can iron them easily. Stressful as it will be the last few crucial months and he might be so tired and kids' behaviour might drive him up the walls. Actually the kids' education here is paid for till March 2010. We can stay here and go back till then. If that is the case, we will only have to stay with mum in law for a month or so only.
As for me, I am actually thinking it should be alright to go back now even though I have to stay with my mil. Called up my mum the other day and she said I should come back and stay with mil so as to build the relationship again. She thinks old folks are lonely and really like to have loved ones around them. She has a point I know. Staying apart is really a way to avoid interaction rather accepting each other.
Well! Let me stew and think about it for a while la. Love going back and this time round maybe it;s not going to be so bad. As for Joe, without us around, he might concentrate and do better. will keep you all update if we going back in Dec 2009 or April 2010 K. If going back in April, I am sorry to say to Hong and my family that we won't be around for another 4 months then.
