A lot has happened since the beginning of June. And now it is time to catch our breath and catch you up on a few things. I will not fill you in on every party for there have been a lot. In fact, in one week of June I made a total of 5 cakes!! We had a missionary from Portugal stay with us for 4 days who has a gluten allergy, so he got a special flourless chocolate cake. Then Jonathan celebrated his 32nd birthday and had a carrot cake. Catherine celebrated her birthday with an angel food cake. I made a pound cake for our ESL end of the year party, that was cancelled 2 hours before the event due to the horrible discovery of lice in Emma's hair. The kids finished school on Friday the 10th and I was asked to bring my chocolate cake for the school dinner. Um, we are sugared out for a while I think!
Samuel had his end of the year spettacolo on June 6th. He was so excited for us to come see him and the other 2nd and 3rd graders. He had several lines and did fabulous in reciting them. We are so proud of his growth this year in the language. His teachers always comment on how many questions he always has. Um, yes. A sure sign he is comforable with his teachers and classmates! Here are a few pictures and brief video clip from the program.
We've had that "horrible discovery" more than once since living in Chile. It is so NOT fun! I enjoyed the video clip (especially the little voice saying, "put that down" - sometimes what's happening off the camera is just as funny!)
