Tomorrow, during class, we are doing my favorite activity. I always love cooking with the kids. They're really cute when they do it. And they're always really really proud when they give their parents what they made.

We're also getting to the end of our chapter book. Pretty soon, I'll have to decide what to read them next.

I managed to get D'mitri to talk to me a little today. He didn't say much but I think he said enough. He told me that his dad was a "bad man" but he and his mommy don't live with them anymore. That was who the oni mask was of because he's still scared of him. I promised that my daycare was a safe place and no bad men would ever hurt him here. He ( Read more... )

Everyone who sent me birthday greetings, thank you so much. I appreciate them all.

I really loved the cake that Ryou sent and so did the kids. They put candles on it and I had to blow them all out. I did so I get a wish. I think I know what I'm going to wish for. I can't tell though because if I do, it won't come true.

After Christmas and all the celebrating, it's nice to have time with my family just at home. I went to do my temple visit and pray for another good year just like the last ( Read more... )

Oshitari-san, thank you again for doing it this year. The children really love it when you read to them. and they like having their mommies come to school with them. It's almost like parent dayMy present shopping is done as well. I really think Santa has a big big job ahead of him this year ( Read more... )

This week, I'm taking the children to the museum. I have already sent home permission slips for it. I think I'm more excited than the kids are about it. I always love taking them to place like that and seeing their little faces light up when the find something they find neat.

Other than that, there have been some really fancy looking cars around

Today, it was nice outside, so I took the children to the park near the daycare to play. While I was there, Douji-san noticed a few strange men. I've never seen them in the area before. She said that she thought they were watching us, but they were probably just businessmen enjoying the weather outside during their lunch break.

I got a message on my machine at the daycare. It was a man but I really don't understand what he was saying. I don't recognize the language. I think maybe it was a wrong number. I hope they call the right person.

This will be my first year as a father. It's really intimidating. I know that I work with small children and all of them believe in Santa. They're all talking about what they want from Santa. Now I'm wondering what Arashi wants. I've never done this before. I suppose I can just ask her.

Today, we celebrated Halloween at Little Treasures. The kids all wore the masks that they made and we all had soul cakes for snack. We finished painting the pumpkins and everyone got a little bag of candy before they left for home. I even came in costume. My beloved Ryou and Arashi did a good job making sure I was the perfect Jedi. But one of my ( Read more... )
