| Ami-chan. I met her on the first day back
in early August when I visited to help with the speech contest. We
have been friends since. |
Junpei-kun. I asked a group a kids if
they were all 5th graders and he said he was in 6th, but small. |
Chihiro. On the volleyball team and a
strong spiker. Always smiling and waving when she sees me. |
Emiri-chan (Emily). A 4th year with
Ami-chan. Always nice and smiling. |
| My favorite kid in the school.
Haruna-chan, a 2nd grader I think. She and I play this game where we
hold hands and she jumps and I pull her up to about 6 feet. She loves
it. She always yells "Ryan sensei" when she sees me and she is too
cute. |
Mako, another volleyball girl. |
Mami-chan. Just too cute. Always laughing
about something. |
Nami-chan. I can never remember her name.
Namida means tear so I point to my eye and say Nami. Also Namie is a
town in Fukushima. |
