Friday and Saturday

Friday morning was difficult for Ella and mommy.  Ella cried a lot when mommy dropped her off at school and mommy cried too.  Ella didn’t see mommy crying but Ms. Alicia did and she sent over another parent to support Sunny.  We are so lucky to have her as Ella’s head teacher.  She told us that Ella recovered pretty soon after mommy left and had the best day out of the whole week.  That made us feel really good.  Again, this is all going to take some time.  After school, we went to Bi-Rite for some amazing ice cream and then we all went swimming.  After swimming, we had dinner at Nama and then ended up hanging out with the Kim/Arena clan and Emily who was visiting.  We had a great night.  Today, we took it easy.  We all slept in (until 8:00) and then we played around the house and eventually made it over to Maria’s for some grilled cheese and french fries.  We had a quiet night at home.  I think we all needed the down time together.  Tomorrow is Strike Out Violence Day.  Hopefully we’ll get some great pictures from on the field.

    I love the pictures of Ella playing outside at school after school. She has the makings to be very happy there. I agree with you that we all are very lucky to have Alicia a Ella’s head teacher. Tell Sunny that I would have cried too. Love you. Mom

    Starting school is a challenge – it’s hard to disguise our sadness. Xaye has had some practice and talks about school a lot – but it was hard for us at first, too. Jerome had to take Xaye for school – he talked about how strange it was to wave goodbye…

    You guys all look great. My boys are still on the east coast, I wish we could just GIVE the house away!

    Glad to see you are all enjoying one another – love and kisses!
