First Week of February



This week has been pretty uneventful.  The week started off with saying good bye to my friends and just as they left two of my 4 children came down with the flu followed by a third a couple of days later. Thankfully, I believe we got a pretty mild version in comparison to what is going around in the states.  Everyone is doing well now and we are praying this mama won't get sick as well I just don't have time for that nonsense. 

Lots of snuggling took place this week along with catching up on reading and completing school work which will make sure the children stay on track to slip back into their school life in the United States.  I think I mentioned this before, but the kids school work seems to be about a year behind what they are doing back home and no one wants to be help back, so we are completing all the school work they would have in the states.  Well, let me correct that statement.  They are doing the two most important subjects which are math and English. 

We watched Wonder this week as at family. Such a great movie ! It stars Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson who play parents to a boy named Auggie or August Pullman.  August was born with Treatcher's Collins Syndrome a rare facial deformity where the child is born without facial bones and effect ears, nose, and throat resulting in multiple surgeries to help the child survive. In order for the parents to give Auggie the best possible life they send him to school after many years of home school feeling that eventually Auggie would have to face the real world.  In the beginning the transition is difficult for all, but in the end everyone learns that as a society we benefit from people like Auggie in our world.  One awesome quote int he film is,"if choosing to be right and be kind, choose kind."  I didn't think the little girls would like the film and would even fell slightly uncomfortable about the movies subject matter, and while we had a short discussion that Auggie was born that way the his appearance seemed not to matter to them.  It was like OK!  No big deal!  I pray they stay that way, and I pray I can teach them to be kind to everyone. 

Opa celebrated his 81st birthday on Saturday.  The girls and I made him a pineapple carrot cake.  The recipe was labeled To Die For Pineapple Carrot cake and while the recipe was good, I wouldn't say it was to die for!  Unlike most carrot cake this cake was dense and slightly chewing.  I think one of the biggest factors in this being the recipe has no oil or butter and uses applesauce in it's place. Oh well, you win some and you loose some.  Some of our relatives came to celebrate with Opa which was fun to see them after so many years. They live in what used to be East Germany about 2 1/2 hours east of here and so we don't seem them as much as we should. After the party, Addy went with two of her cousins ice skating. She had a blast! When she came home she was beaming from ear to ear!  Well I  want to go finish a book that I am reading, so I will leave you with a few pictures from the week.  Hope your week or weekend went well.  Sending out a Go Pats from Germany. My dad is so thrilled.  He is a big Patriots fan!  See you back here soon.
