乐乐托儿所要求家长每三个月和老师开一对一的家长会。1月21日，我和Linda老师约好中午见面。乐乐在托儿所过得挺愉快的。除了她晚上有时不好好睡觉，我对乐乐没有什么特别操心的。睡觉这件事，我们只能耐心等待。今天看见 Benji的妈妈，她说早晨Benji一进教室，乐乐就跑过去拥抱了她，特别sweet。我一直在琢磨着周末给乐乐安排一些和小朋友们的聚会，尤其是冬天，在家里待得腻歪得很。这个周末，乐乐有两个聚会，周六去叮当家聚会，周日和托儿所的Benji和Miles两个男同学去请触摸博物馆玩Please Touch Museum。

与以往的老师不同，Linda老师准备了书面评语，我贴在下面了，另外附上用google语言软件翻译过来的中文 (我做了不少改动)。我感谢Linda老师花时间准备书面评语，她说这是托儿所要求的，难道以前的老师没有做到吗?

连着两个周五，我们带着乐乐去两所蒙式学校面试。乐乐的表现超出我的预料，她做每一项活动的时候都很专注，而且对手里的工具都表现出了浓厚的兴趣。城里的那所学校很难进，我们邻居申请了两年都被拒绝了，她很气愤，最后放弃蒙式教育。负责录取的主任第一次见到我就说我们被录取的可能性很小。城外的那家远，开车不方便了。真的是很难十全十美呀。
