Craft and Swim and Soccer




We don't know why they call it Craft and Swim, since they do the Swim part first. We guessed it's because it just sounds better. It was parent observation day, and B was able to leave work to come for the swimming part. He used to be on a YMCA swim team, so he always likes to see how the boys are doing. R has been asked many times by the staff to join the swim team, but he says he gets too tired from it. He really does swim so gracefully and smoothly. So perhaps when he is feeling stronger. E swam the whole session this time without a bubble! We are all very proud of him.

They made a really cool fish tank with tissue paper. R is still working on his, but E's is really cool. His teacher, Miss Kim, told him that his was the best in the class, and he just beamed.

B had to work late tonight, so I took R to soccer. E and I spent some time working on his workbook during R's practice. He actually enjoys working on phonics rather than math, but all the repetition gets boring, so we jumped around a lot. The building where practice was held was really dark and cold. Very depressing. I guess it's not a big deal if you are playing and staying warm though.

We talked more about Hungary today, and R asked me to look up some things on Google, which I did instead of blogging. I had hoped to go to bed early, but no luck.
