Mixed Feelings

We let go, 2 pairs of siblings effective yesterday. The general feeling is of course, sadness. Though the sadness I feel is more for my P6 girl. She's had with me a fair share of heartaches, headaches and 'joy'-aches (due to immense laughing).

I didn't get to say goodbye actually. Mainly cause I don't work on Mondays... so when she came by to pick up her things today, in the midst of me conducting a lesson, I was glad to see her and yet it tugged my heartstrings to realize that she wouldn't be around.

She was one of those students who you'd have a lot of emotional connections for. God has really changed her & she has improved leaps and bounds since joining us. Now she's forced to leave with family issues.

I'll never forget the words she said to me when I caught up with her at the school gate.

"Aunty Sarah... I'm scared I'll forget you... I don't want to... can I come visit everyday?"

I'll truly miss you.
