Home Visits

So Keegan and I just got back from doing a home visit with two of our kids, Lily and Tom. I guess what the teachers do every once in awhile is go to the kid's home to visit with their parents. Just informing them about how they are doing and other such junk... It was actually really neat. It was so cool to get to meet their parents and families. Most of them didn't speak English at all but we went with Lulu and Milly, they work with us in the Kindergarten. So they translated for us when needed but most of the time we just sat there and nodded and smiled. They fed us tons and tons of fruit!! It was kinda a cool way to try out new stuff though. I think one of the best parts for me was being able to see the kid's Dads. For some reason the Chinese men here kinda scare me so it was really neat to see them in a family atmosphere. They really do love their kids. It was surprising because the apartments that they lived in were really nice. This school is quite an expensive school for the kids to be at. Its almost like a boarding school, the kids are here from 6 am to 6 pm. I don't know how they keep the kids occupied for that long. I can't even keep them occupied for 20 minutes sometimes! Anyway it was a really cool experience. Mostly to see what Chinese life is like in the home. Thanks for your comments and thoughts! Much love!
