Kids are always watching us adults. They're very observant.
Tuesday, Heart 0 - 10
I'm trying to get the kids to love reading. And also to form their own opinions independent of their peers.
Tuesday, Heart 0 - 10
No easy task, let me tell you. Because kids can be… Shall I say…persistent in their opinions and in their way of convincing others.
Wednesday, Heart 0 - 10
Kids are always watching us adults. They're very observant.
Wednesday, Heart 0 - 10
School is from Monday to Friday, 9 am to 4 pm. My hope is the kids feel school is more like an informative playdate than work.
Wednesday, Heart 2 - 10
I'm hoping that teaching different views and values from all over the world can help the kids be open minded.
Spring
Date 8 - 9
The kids and I are going to attend the Cherry Blossom Festival. I hope to see you there.

Spring always symbolizes new beginnings in literature. It's the season of love, renewal, and growth. Or the season of pollen, if you're allergic.
Heart 0 - 10
What a year for blooms! Spring always looks good on Coral Island, but this year seems even more spectacular than usual.
Date 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12. Heart 4 - 10.
I make sure the kids play outside as much as I can. Being outside is good for both mental and physical health. Especially now the snow has melted.
Heart 4 - 10
Enjoying Spring so far?
Summer
Date 8 - 12
I leave for work a little early to enjoy the Summer sun.
Date 9 - 16
Summer is the time to visit the beach.

I'm not my best self in Summer. I can't think properly.
Heart 0 - 10
The season of salt and sweat is upon us! I'm always grateful for every one of Coral Island's seasons.
Heart 4 - 10
We went to the beach last Summer. The whole class went. We made sure to take our trash home from a beach day. Little things like that – they're important.
Fall
Date 3 - 8
The kids are excited about the Harvest Festival.
Date 12 - 20
Pumpkin. Pumpkin pies, pumpkin everything!
Heart 0 - 10
Oh, how I love Fall! Authors have sung its praises since what feels like the beginning of time. It's the season of crisp breezes and veggies aplenty.
Heart 0 - 10
Sometimes the Fall harvest comes a little later than usual, but all we can do is wait. There's no rushing nature. She knows what she's doing.
Heart 4 - 10
Leah changed the kitchen soap to a brand she found on the internet. Fall limited edition – something like that. It's shipped from Pokyo. The whole kitchen smells like apple pie every time she does the dishes.
Winter
Date 15 - 23
I urge the kids to keep active during Winter. Hopefully, we can keep them healthy the whole season.
Date 15 - 23
Flu can be very nasty.
Date 25 - 26
It seems like it's been snowing less and less lately.
Heart 0 - 10
The mansion gets quite drafty in Winter, so we have to plug all its cracks and keep the heat going all the time.
Heart 8 - 10
I could stop by the hot spring to warm up tonight. Is the hot spring working? Do you happen to know?
