My Classes (or My first certificate!)

[I couldn't be prouder as a Daddy today. Abigail brought home her first serious certificate for completing something in life. She has worked very hard in her preparation class for Russian school. At the start of the year Abigail went there in tears and struggled to keep up with the classes. The teachers are all impressed with her abilities and how well she now speaks Russian. We are confident that Abigail will be ready to start Russian First Class in September.]

I feel happy that I got my work back. And there was a nice party at the end. The older kids were dancing and I watched them. I enjoyed their dance and some of them sang songs. There was girls and boys dancing. I got my work back in a bag. A bag with grapes on it. Everyone else got their work back too. At the end Mummy looked at all of my work. 

Daddy looked at my work too when I got home, I was dancing to the music in my head that came from the party. 

I feel happy that I am finished, it's going to be very interesting at my next class. My friends in my class are Serafima, Kristina, Lidia, Arseny.

Children's centre (a different place altogether from Doshkolonok preparation class): we do drawing and singing. The girls names are Liza, Nadia, Polina and Uliana.
