First Day of School

Today was Elyse's first day of school. She will be going 3 days a week for 3 hours each day. Doesn't she look so cute in her uniform and backpack?

As we were walking to the school, we ran into 2 other kids that go to her school. They just so happened to be the other 2 white kids in the school and they are from the States. The girl is in Elyse's class and her mom was saying that she comes home speaking Mandarin. Let's seen how long it takes Elyse to do that. Perhaps when we go to Beijing, Elyse can tell the taxi drivers where to go :)

The school is called Twinkle Minds and is in the HDBs across the street from our condo.
Elyse went in with out looking back, I had to call her to say goodbye and get this picture.

When I picked her up she was very happy and her teacher said she "performed very well" and "ate well- asking for seconds." Sounds like it was a good day.
