Evie was a class leader today and oh my, her Japanese is SO good. I was volunteering at the Japanese class and she made me so surprised. I thought it will take longer for those kids who don’t speak Japanese at home to begin to understand it, but she has no accident and even talked herself in Japanese. She was drawing and said “oops. I forgot about this” in Japanese! I think she has a better accent than my son!
