This weekend







This weekend was so much more pleasant weather wise than the last freezing one. Warmer temperatures and returning home with our house mostly intact - thanks to my husband and a friend armed with pipes and soldering irons. Running water - how I have taken these things for granted! Parts of the kitchen were beyond help, but lucky us have a handy joiner who can whizz something up.

Other than that, we've been enjoying Sam and Bella's singing and dancing shows. Sam sings French songs learnt from school and Bella dances and inevitably tries to dominate the stage. And I've been trying to grow Sam's hair as I love his natural curls.

  2. I never take water or electricity for granted. When it's gone, it's not a good existence. Love the curls, my son has extremely curly hair.

  3. i'm sorry your having to go through all this, but you guys are making the best of it. helps to have the worlds cutest kids around to keep things happy.

    having grown up with a house in mexico, and spending a lot of time in developing countries, it helps to keep things like clean water, electricity, even food in perspective. and never to take these things for granted. good luck getting it all sorted, and i'm glad your back home!
