Esther the model


Esther is wearing a white dress that my grandma, I and Elizabeth wore at the same age. She likes her new sunglasses and is posing for me!!

My birthday





I had a wonderful birthday. In the morning we went to Church as always. In the afternoon, we brought the children at the pool and they enjoyed being with daddy while me and Daniel rested. In the evening we had a yummy icecream together......I had to be careful because they wanted mine!!

More pictures.........


Esther is liking books just like everybody else. Sophie is reading in english and in italian and working on 1st grade math.
David is working on his prewriting skills. He loves math though. He can count to 29, subtract and add numbers.
Sarah and Elizabeth are working on extra-scholastic skills such as sewing or cooking. They just had a full day working on measuring, cutting and sewing a pijama by themselves with her friend Elisheba.

Daniel 6 months old





Daniel is growing fast and well. The girls love cuddling him and playing with him all the time. Sophie changes his diapers, Sarah reads to him.

Birthdays







In June we celebrated Sarah and Esther' s birthdays. Sarah had lots of friends over and they had a marines party.............they had to run, jump and pass through an obstacle course. In the end, they had a pinata too!

May Pictures

In May our highlight was to go for a picnic in Villa Pamphili as a family right after Church. The children enjoyed going on the bike, blowing bubbles and eating icecream. It has been wonderful.

The girls worked very hard for the rest of the month for their exam in school (the law requires this every year when you homeschool). They did very well.




April pictures





Our computer finally works. We had a lot of things going on. First of all, my sweet baby turned 11years old in April. Where is the time gone?? We had a fun indian party and a treasure hunt, games and riddles. The children had to cover one of them as a mummy too!!
