Yesterday Madeleine and I went to the mall with a few of my friends. Since we got along so well the first time we met, I thought it would be a great opportunity to introduce her to more people. My friends were so intrigued to learn more about Maddie and her culture, which really allowed her to open up and have a great time with everyone. They were also very impressed with how well Maddie spoke English. If Maddie didn't understand a word we used, we helped her learn it by spelling it out, and giving a definition. This was helpful since she writes a log of new words she learns every week. Following the mall, Maddie joined us for dinner and a movie. We saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2, and she loved it! She told us how nice it was to spend time with friends, because she often misses her friends from home.
Overall. the best part about yesterday was seeing Maddie feel so comfortable with a new group of friends. I'm happy that everyone got along so well, and I look forward to spending more time with her!
