Probably two weeks ago, Erika went along on the car ride to Maita’s school. We sometimes do this as one of us needs more time at home to get ready. In this case, I just got back from Europe and needed more time to get organized for work.
When Erika came back home I noticed that she had a new toy, a music box. I asked L how much it cost and it was a whopping NT$ 500 for the new toy from the convenience store. We normally don’t buy toys anymore for our kids and there had to be a special reason for this purchase.
It turns out that Erika went into Maita’s classroom and did not want to leave anymore. She left the school crying and kept saying, “I want to go to school,” in the car. L had no choice but to take her to the nearest convenience store to buy whatever she wanted. Unfortunately, she picked an expensive toy.
We think that Erika should now be ready for pre-school. She’s basically already toilet trained and she can do most things by herself now. She’ll probably go starting summer this year. We hope that she’ll show similar progress as Maita but recognize that they are different and might have different results.
