We had a lovely, wonderful, fun, talented and very helpful visitor this August! Her name was Mathilde, and she traveled across "l'Atlantique" from Rennes, France to spend a month with us---to improve her English, experience a little corner of the United States and help me with the girls. I was able to focus on some yearly school planning and projects before that slower-third-trimester hits. It was everything we could have hoped for and more!
Here we are after Mass on her last Sunday with us~
The girls ADORED her:
They are staying AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE as she checks in her luggage at the airport last Wednesday. Moments later, they were all just a puddle of tears as we said, "Adieu." :-(
By the way, Mathilde is the oldest of five children. Her parents had FIVE GIRLS and the SIXTH (Charles) is a BOY, who is 1 year old. Coincidence???? I think not! So, we'll have "un petit correspondant" for our little boy too.


In honor of Mathilde I vote for Julius Peter Charles Gallus! Oh, and for Charlie Wlaker, too!

For det andre er det Askepott historien kjent, et vakkert par krystall MBT sandaler som de jentene som aspirerer til krystall, er som enhver jente strebe etter å ha magiske sko, og legg den på legemliggjørelsen av en vakker prinsesse. Høye vanntette MBT sandaler er svært godt egnet for en våt sommer, i motsetning til vanlige MBT sandaler våt lett deformert, selv på regnværsdager gjør deg vakker fokus.
