Feeling slightly formal.

I couldn’t get out of bed until 3:30pm today :( I still have a headache and the general feeling of feeling not well. Four o’clock was when I was supposed to be at the Wadas to tutor Yuki and Soyoka, and I wouldn’t be able to make it there on time. Mom called Mrs.Wada (her good friend) and asked her if it was okay if I went at 5pm instead. Mrs. Wada, being the nice person she is, didn’t mind at all and even asked if I was okay and suggested I not to go if I didn’t feel well enough. I wanted to go though because being with the kids always makes me feel better. Yuki “hid” behind the front door when he opened it for me, and we played “knock, knock, who’s there?” Too bad I couldn’t think of a good knock, knock joke at the time. I am very pleased with the progress Yuki has made in the time I’ve known him. He almost always can communicate with me in English now and seems much more eager to do his homework now that he can understand the problems better on his own. It’s nice to see him beam when he can figure out the answers on his own. Soyoka made it on the Honor Roll :)! We worked a little more on her science project (the invention of the parachute) and read the first chapter of Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. I remember reading that book when I was about Soyoka’s age too. I hope she enjoys it as much as I did.
