日記 {nikki}

rachelle is required to write her 日記for the weekends every week... due every monday when she reaches the classroom...

in the beginning of the school year... she would write what she had wanted to say in english... then hubby would translate for her... then she would copy it into her 日記... and as she was copying... hubby would read to her what she was writing... and explain to her... sentence by sentence...

this went on for a while... it got a little stressful especially during the times when hubby was oso hard pressed for time... to complete his paper... in japanese...as well...

but i believe hubby's efforts had paid off... it was all worth the while...

for the past month... or even longer... she has not been asking hubby to help her with her日記... and last night... i saw her writing her own 日記..!

though written in simple japanese... i was so amazed... and to me... it's really quite an achievement..!

gals are really speaking quite a lot of japanese these days... especially when playing with their korean neighbours... cos japanese is their only common language... =)
