It has been a very busy week. It all started with Emilie being sick, not sure what is was just really bad headaches that would make her cry and high peaks of fever. I did not feel great myself either. We both got tested for strep but it came back negative which was good.
I had to take my Dad to the dentist. He has an infection under one of his tooth so that means we will have to have it extracted. Not fun either... But he feels better today. He said : "I had to fly all the way from Belgium to have a tooth extracted!!!"
Claire then ended up with the same symptoms as Emilie. That meant not a lot of sleep for me during the week but it seems like verybody is feeling better now. Just cold/allergies symptoms are remaining.
Emilie likes Kindergarten in Mrs Runyon's project child class. She already had her school pictures last Friday. She was really excited about it.
I started volunteering at her school on Monday. I was wondering how she would react to the fact that I would be there for just that class and then would have to leave. And as I thought, she had a rough time letting me go. I will go back again and see how she does next time.
I am still volunteering one day per week at the Base Thrift Shop as well.
Claire seems to like her school and remembers very well what she did as well as the stories she heard. She is a very smart little lady. She goes twice a week to Happyland Preschool. Her teacher is Mrs. Byrd. She wants to go back every day. (Of course when she attended her Montessori school last year it was 5 mornings a week so it is a big change for her) I will be volunteering in her class once a week as well.
Claire's first day at her new preschool with her sister
I also take her to gymnastics on Wednesday morning. She likes it and is doing very good.
Both girls still do Ballet/Tap once a week.
Pappy and Maminou are doing good too but they don't really care for the Florida heat. We take them to the pool and the beach. They are still tired from the jetlag.

At the Crab Trap after the storm...
The girls are coping as well as can be with Mike being gone but they really miss him and long to kiss him and hug him... Talking on the phone is not the same. Here are 2 drawing they made for their daddy, you can recognize the military clothes on them... We sent them along with a care package full of goodies. Mike loved it!
