As I told you here in Japanese the other day, I was chosen as a PTA chairperson of kindergarten my son goes to.   It would be the biggest news about me this year!

Looking back, when my daughter started to go to the kindergarten 5 years ago, I had no confidence of raising children at all.   It was as if I had been in a dark tunnel that continued endlessly.

I don’t know how many times I consulted with a teacher of my daughter’s class.   And gradually, I was coming to know how to deal with my kids.   Still now I’ve been learning how to behave as a mother from teachers at the kindergarten.   In such a sense, I really appreciate it.

The other day, I gave an inaugural speech in front of a lot of parents at a general meeting.    I had never got so nervous before.  

I think  that not only my two children but also I myself had been raised by teachers and other  people around me to become a mother.

This year is the last year for my son and me to spend at kindergarten so I want to do my best in various events as a chairperson.
