it started!!!

We started Chinese lessons this week. Oh my... I have a lot of work to do. I began with Book 1, Lesson 2 and have already moved to lesson 3. It doesn't sound like much, but it really is 100 pages into the book!

[It's not THAT impressive. I went out to a restaurant today and still had to order by pointing. Like I said....I have a lot of work to do.]

Rachel is in Book 2 (even though her teacher wants her to move to Book 3) because she doesn't know how to read in this country. She learned fancy-schmancy "traditional" characters and needs to back track a bit. Oh well.

Tomorrow is Friday - yay weekend!
