For the New Year, my daughter wanted a handbag. I did not think it was a good idea. She would use the handbag for a few days then forget about it.
I gave her a watch. It is more useful and in school she is learning how to tell time.
Eloise
At the Farm
My daughter Eloise was at the farm and had a picnic of fried chicken wings and rice. Then she took a long walk to explore.
Summer School
Every year my daughter goes to summer school starting in April for one month. Her friends also go. She studies Thai language, English and Math.
First Day of School
The school year begins in May. On the first day the students line up outside, then the teachers take them to their classrooms.
Kindergarten

Birthday
My daughter turned eleven this month. We had a special barbecue dinner with my sister’s family. But we could not eat the cake because we forgot the candles! We ate some of it two days later.
The Thai letters on the cake mean “Happy Birthday”.
