Lots happening....

Well not right now. My friend Judy is here for a wedding this weekend. They stayed with us. I'm trying to talk her into moving back...not as crazy as it sounds!

Here are Talia and Ronnie with hers'; Lucie 10 and Vincent 8.

How cute (and helpful) it was when Lucie read to the girls!

She makes balloons on her days off to make a little extra cash. It's fun and she enjoys it so she brought her stuff and offered to do it for Talia's class.

Amel got an elephant (but hard to see the trunk from this angle).

Kenza, Paul and Emanuelle showing off their mice.
Emanuelle just moved here from Hong Kong. Her mom is German and her dad French. Talia was thrilled to have another English speaker in the class, making it three (Eric being totally American). Emanuelle attended a French-English school there.

It actually ended kind of badly. The kids were making a lot of noise and the teacher kept telling them to be quiet. Even after recess, they wouldn't quiet down. She threated to keep them from taking their balloons home and when they didn't calm down, she had to make good on her promise.

Judy and I were a little upset but weren't really in a position to say anything.

She had the aid take the balloons down to the basement to keep them cool and they were given out on Friday. Most were still in good shape.
