2Y2M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee

New Swimsuit
Mummy was packing Yee's swimsuit for the school in the morning. Yee saw it and wanted to wear it.


Kinder Nursery
We played in the pool today. Yee-chan put a lot of water in the bucket. Yee-chan was calm when the water from the hose or friends splashed water on her. After a break, Yee-chan said, “入っていいよ” (enter) and quickly enter into the pool and played happily.

2Y2M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee

Kinder Nursery
- Thank you for joining the excursion. It was a fun time. I was very happy too.
- Today is the first day of the year to play in the inflated swimming pool. Last year, Yee-chan played in the small pool. This year, Yee-chan played in the big pool. There was a little splashing of water, and Yee was calm. Yee has become strong.

Way Home
What used to be a 15 minutes journey home has been extended to 45 minutes. After parking the bike, Yee wanted to walk around the neighbourhood. We first went to the vacant land that she was there yesterday. When we were at the junction towards home, Yee wanted to walk another way, she pointed the the traffic light and told Mummy, "Green man." Yee is persistence and refused to go home. So, we walked towards すえひろ保育園. Besides the nursey, there was a tiny park. Yee played on the swing for a while. Yee refused to leave till I distracted her with the Anpanman slide inside
すえひろ保育園. Outside the gate, we prayed for God to open door for Yee to enter in August.
Doesn't Yee Look Stylish?

btw, that was a swim cap.

2Y2M (JP) - Kamogawa Seaworld 鴨川シーワールド(Part 1)

The bus journey to Kamogawa was about 2hrs. The teachers filled the time with singing and quizzes.

Sea Turtles

The sea is right below but they are enclosed ... so near and yet so far.

Yee happily chased the pigeons after lunch.

"Daddy, buy."


Yee's Fave Japanese Cartoon Character - Anpanman


It's hard to get Mummy and Yee to look at the camera at the same time.

2Y2M (JP) - Kamogawa Seaworld 鴨川シーワールド (Part 3)

On our way home from Kamogawa Seaworld (鴨川シーワールド)




Outside すえひろ保育園
We have been bringing Yee to the government nursery (which we are still queuing). Yee wanted to get in but it was closed on Sunday (anyway, we cannot enter as Yee is not a student there). We prayed for God to perform a miracle that Yee will be enrolled in Aug.

See how badly Yee wanted to get in (Dear God, please hear Yee's prayer.)

Yee did not want to leave the compound.

A building was demolished, near our house, Yee played at the compound for the first time (encouraged by Daddy)

Daddy asked Yee to pass him a stone. Yee shrugged her shoulders in response.

Soon with Daddy's encouragement, she started to pick up stones.

Yee kicked the stone as we continued our walk home.

It took 10 minutes to walk home from where we alighted from the bus. But with Yee's eagerness to walk around the neighbourhood, it became one hour.
