Kayleigh went to school for the first time today! We have been talking to her about starting Chinese preschool for a while. We were able to go and visit her school and see some of the classrooms before she started. She woke up this morning and asked me if today was the day she went to school. She was so excited! She loves to wear flip flops but I had explained to her that she needed to wear tennis shoes because she was going to play on the playground each morning. Well, of course on her first day it was pouring down rain and they didn't get to go outside. She is hoping for a chance to play outside on Thursday. When John dropped her off she didn't cry. He said that she seemed a little shocked not to see any white faces in the room but walked on in anyways. When I went to pick her up from school they were still eating lunch. She asked John if she could come back again! The teachers said she did great. She talked about the teachers playing the piano and singing Chinese songs. She also said that they had little sinks that she could reach and wash her hands. This must have made an impression on her. We feel like she is growing up so fast. We are so excited that she is enjoying her school and will hopefully learn the language so she can communicate with her friends.
