If you have not picked up on the fact that I LOVE Nuno’s teacher, then you have not been listening. She is wonderful. If I had my way, I would sit in her class just to learn how to be a better teacher. Honestly, observing her would become better than any University class. She is that good.

The other day Nuno came home with a completed writing book. The fact is that he has done more writing in half a year of Year 1 (Kindergarten to you) than Lana did in Years 1 & 2 in Australia! This is no fault of hers. She would have loved to have written in school, but that’s not what they did there. Instead, it’s what she and her friends would do for fun, at recess. Can you understand my frustration with her old school and them not tapping into her innate enthusiasm for learning?!?!?

Looking through the book I could not help but smile that my little boy has become a writer. He may not be the best writer, yet. But man, I am a proud mama.

Thank you Ti Ze for giving him the thrill of his life and letting him drive the boat. He loved it so much, he mentioned it again in his book!

I also though this one was cute.
