School Days

The kindergarten teacher at my dad's school has kindly agreed to let Olivia attend her class for a few hours a couple of days a week. Olivia loves it! The first time she went, the class was finishing up their unit on Ireland by celebrating St. Patrick's Day. Olivia got to decorate a cookie.

Olivia is also taking a gymnastics class at the school on Tuesday afternoons, so we have been spending quite a lot of time there. The girls both love playing in the park and hanging out in Nana's office. At the end of the day, vendors set up kiosks outside the school and sell everything from cheap toys to omlettes. We love getting fruit smoothies for 15 baht a piece. They are delicious and much cheaper than Booster Juice.

Olivia tells me they call this slide "the butt buster."

Today we dropped Olivia off at the kindergarten at 1:00 and took Isabella and William to a little coffee shop about five minutes off campus called Wawee Coffee. They have a nice patio in the back that looks over the Ping River. We sat and enjoyed our coffees while watching boats cruise along the river. It was very nice. I couldn't help but think about all the poor people at home enduring -35 temperatures. Today I am extra glad to be here.
