On Dana's second day

I hear Dana singing nursery songs lately. Three Little Indians. Row, row, row your boat. Variations thereof. I thought, hey, wait a minute. First grade! Why are they singing kindergarten songs? At any rate, I need to learn to trust and see how this goes for her. Most of her classmates are younger than she, that's true, and maybe the teacher is finding a median. I hope this was a good decision to re-enroll her to first grade...though it's too late for regrets now.



As promised, this is her journal entry about her first day in school. She didn't have any assignments from school. Good thing there's Kumon, so she had some Math and Reading to do still.

When I was in school I'm very happy. Because it's my first day of school. Because we learned so much with my best friend classmate Ethan and we all play games like Mirror games. We are all the mirror except Ben the crazy classmate. And we have fun. After that we sang songs like Happy Birthday for Prince, my birthday classmate. And we pray to God and ate food from McDonald's. I finish my spaghetti except my chicken. I wait my mom and dad to fetch me. And when I got home I was thinking all about school. I talk all about it to my mom and dad and I miss my best friend already and my teacher. Her name is Teacher Aryana. But Teacher Aryana said we can call her Teacher...Yana for short. And we did our assignment and go to bed early. The End.
