Day 2

Day 2 was successful! I now know how to successfully navigate the route to work on my own and how to manage all the kids. I spent today really getting the know the kids, mostly their routine. For example, when it was naptime at 12:30 I slept right alongside them despite my legs hanging off the miniature mat. That was the highlight of the day, along with sharing an apple with Marc during afternoon snack. Today we were low on help so I had more responsibility and often founded myself outnumbered 7:1. I learned the significance of understanding each kid more, studying their interactions to find what toys one kid likes and what actions make another cry. Though I sometimes lag when processing German instructions, I was a big help when the kids were getting picked up and needed some corralling. The picture is from an earlier walk, where the toddlers and I were both thrilled to see many ducks!
