Nymf Hathaway: yes
Gaya Ethaniel: That's nice :)
Gaya Ethaniel: Cute ... only 4 :)
Nymf Hathaway: yes the programs are good
Gaya Ethaniel: hm ... watered down these days though a bit, guess they want programmes to appeal to a wider audience.
Nymf Hathaway: he is going to school but his teacher is having a study day
Nymf Hathaway: yes
Gaya Ethaniel: What is a study day?
Nymf Hathaway: she needs to get back to school 12x a year
Nymf Hathaway: the teacher
Gaya Ethaniel: ah ... training.
Nymf Hathaway: yes
Gaya Ethaniel: Children start school at 4?
Nymf Hathaway: even at 3 here? and at your place?
Gaya Ethaniel: ah ... 5 I think.
Nymf Hathaway: without the ? behind my line
Nymf Hathaway: oke
Nymf Hathaway: they discovered a lot of kids are behind in speaking and understanding Dutch...so they started at 3 to help improve their abilities
Gaya Ethaniel: ah ... that's quite early.
Nymf Hathaway: seems parents do not read stories enough anymore and next to it emigrants who do not speak the language well themselves. I placed my son as well at age 3 but that was for the social aspect. 2x a week 2 hours.
Gaya Ethaniel: ah ...
Nymf Hathaway: a classroom is 8 little ones, very small
Gaya Ethaniel: :)
Nymf Hathaway: May I ask why you choose a rabbit as an avi?
Gaya Ethaniel: I'm not really sure ... I like it a lot :)
Nymf Hathaway: Oh yes its really lovely :) was just wondering if there is a special reason :)
Gaya Ethaniel: And I've been looking for non-human AVs for a while. Thanks :)
Nymf Hathaway: I have some non-human avi's as well, some are really beautiful

Gaya Ethaniel: And this one?
Nymf Hathaway: This is a sweety :)
Gaya Ethaniel: :)
Nymf Hathaway: a little pup
