On the last day of school Arya’s friends hugged for a while and have promised each other to write regularly and to keep in touch. They’re also planning on Skyping Arya into sleepovers. She also got a chance to say goodbye to Ms. Nic.
Yesterday Rishi got his eye glasses. His first words? “Wow! Everything is so 3D!”
He was very excited about all the things he could see clearly, blades of grass, the pattern of the wood flooring.. he read out loud every license plate we came across on the drive home.
On my birthday last Friday, we went out to eat shabu shabu. Rishi was wearing his watch and was really excited about keeping time. He wrote down all the driving times to get there and then to get back. But what was amusing was that at the restaurant, he noticed on the menu that you could only eat for 90 minutes. Rishi and Arya were eating a lot, and Rishi was stuffing his mouth as we were getting close to 90 min despite our assurances that it would be ok. He was very relieved to have finished 4 min before the deadline. 🙂
Arya noticed the Brass Rat on my hand and remarked that she hadn’t seen me wearing it before. When I explained that I’m wearing it since I just started my new job, she looked shocked and smilingly exclaimed, “You’re bragging, mama!”
I couldn’t stop laughing for a while!
Abbiamo fatto un servizio fotografico per la casa… mentre aspettiamo le foto del fotografo… intanto ci sono le nostre.
Se non si vedono, cliccatele (o si scrive clickatele?…. o fateci click sopra?)

We did a photo shoot for the kitchen and deck…. while we wait for the professional photos, here are are own!
If you can’t see them… click them!
A natural at marketing…
Rishi got his cello this Saturday and can’t wait for his first cello lesson! Here’s Rishi trying out how the cello looks on him with and without the jacket.
Usually you’d never hear those words together but here’s how it went:
Rishi: Is this for sucking out buggers?
Arya: Nooo, no, no, definitely not for that.
Perhaps there logic is that when you’re little you use snot suckers and when you grow bigger you use a baster? Well I’ll certainly never look at this kitchen device in the same way again!
Radhika: tomorrow is supposed to be partially cloudy
Rishi: partly cloudy? Because I don’t think “partially” is a word
Arya: yes it is
Rishi: oh yeah! I remember, it’s a plantÂ
While I was still scratching my head, Arya replied without missing a beat, “No that’s parsley, partially means…”
Was sooo cute!! 🙂
È iniziata la stagione per starsene sbarcati in terrazzo!

And the lounging season has begun!
