Goodbye nursery school

On 23 Dec. I went to a child nursery school, where my children had been graduated.
A new building is planed to be built at another place, so they held a farewell ceremony.
It was a reunion with many ex-nursery teachers and many ex-nursery child's parents.
My eldest son was raised here from aged four and second eldest son was from aged two, third eldest son and daughter was raised from zero to six. I bet I couldn’t raise my children alone.
Whatever in the building and whatever in the garden I saw, I was made reminded the things in those days.　 I was glad I could show appreciate their ex-teachers.
I feel sorry for the old building will be destroyed. But the more children grow up, the more the building grows old.
At the new nursery school, new babies and toddlers will grow up. It’s a hope.
I wish to go to celebrate the completion of the new nursery school.

12月23日　保育園に行きました。子ども達が卒園したところです。園舎が別の土地に新たに建つことになり、現在の園舎のお別れ会をすることになったのです。たくさんの旧教職員や旧園児の保護者の再会でした。
　私の一番上の子は4歳から2番目は2歳から、3番目と4番目はゼロ歳から6歳までここで育てられました。私ひとりではとうてい育てられなかったでしょう。
　園舎を見ても園庭を見ても当時のことが思い出されました。かつての先生方にお礼を言うことができてよかったです。
　古い園舎が壊されるのはさびしいけれど、子どもは大きくなり建物は古びます。新しい園舎で小さな人たちが育ってゆきます。それは希望です。
　落成のお祝いにまたかけつけたいです。
