Preschool

安娜昨天开始去幼儿园了。在去之前，我们跟她解释，哥哥姐姐都要去上学，所以她也得去上学。我们跟她叮咛下午爸爸妈妈 下班时去接她回家。早上爸爸把她送到幼儿园，不出所料，等爸爸走时，她开始大哭。 下面是老师写给我们的条子：“安娜经历了一个非常正常的第一天，她很安静，大部分时间在观察。但是她把午饭全吃光了，午睡时一躺下就睡着了。非常好！我们很高兴安娜加入了我们的班级！”

今天是第二天，爸爸离开时她又哭了，不过好像好些了。老师的条子上写着: “安娜今天高兴多了！她到外面玩儿，追逐泡泡，在游乐设施上爬！她也开心的涂颜色，在厨房/起居室玩儿。今天表现非常好!”

另外，先生的同事们给安娜开了庆祝会。 安娜在会上表现腼腆，只让了一个人抱她。

我希望安娜尽快适应幼儿园的生活。我盼望着她高高兴兴地去上学的那一天！

Anna started going to her preschool yesterday. We explained to her that both her brother and sister also go to school, so she had to do the same thing. We assured her that mommy and daddy would pick her up in the afternoon after work. Daddy sent her to school in the morning, and unsurprisingly, she started crying when daddy had to leave for work. Here is what her teacher wrote on her report to us at the end of the day:
"Anna had a very normal first day! She observed and took in a lot, was quite, and watched. She did eat all of her lunch & laid in her cot and fell right asleep at naptime, which was great! We are excited to have Anna in our class!"

Today was her second day, and she cried again when daddy left. However, she seemed to be more comfortable. Here is her teacher's note:
"Anna had a much happier day! She played outside, chasing bubbles and climbing in the play structure! Anna also enjoyed coloring in art and playing in our kitchen/dress up area. She's doing great!"

In addition, my husband's colleagues held a "baby" shower for Anna. She was shy at the party, only allowed one other person to hold her.

I hope that Anna will get used to her preschool very soon. I am looking forward to the day when she goes to school happily.
