Life in Rennes...

...has been pretty good for me since school started in late August. After two months of taking care of the girls largely on my own (what a shocker - it's such hard work!), all-day schooling was certainly a welcome relief! Manolee is in Pre- Pre- Pre-K-equivalent (Petite Section Accueil, they call it here), and Hanaya is in the second grade (they call that CE1 here - so technical, no?). Manolee had a tough time adjusting for the first two weeks, but is doing much better now, especially since she's found a couple of admirers in her class (stories of kisses from boys have already started... ah.. these French boys!)

What I can tell you is that life abroad very often means looking forward to the next visit stateside - for us, that will be at the end of October 2007 - we will be seeing many of you soon (in between the all-important and frequent trips to Target!)! 

Write us! You know how to reach me if you are reading this!
