Hello girls,


Yesterday in the car on the way to school Vivian asked if she was ever going to do homework club. I said that in fact Mama and I had talked about you doing it one day a week since I might be taking a new job. Vivian said, NO! I don't want to! Don't make me do it! And I asked why and she said, But I want to stay home with you! And I said, But I'll be at the office anyway so you'll just be with Alicia and you said, But with Alicia I can play babydolls! I said you could play with your friends on the playground but you just cried and said you didn't want to go.

Then that afternoon when Sabine & I came to pick you up (it was 100 degree outside) you asked if you could stay for homework club! You said, "I love school so much I don't want to go home."

But I thought it was too hot to play outside so we went and got ice cream instead.

Sabine has been learning to say sentences! You said, "Man Daddy talk." and "Mama read Global Babies" and "Daddy turn off." You have really been loving "baby school" and playing with your sister and going for walks in the morning with Daddy. Today we saw the garbage truck which you love on our walk and you got to follow it for a whole block. But then you said "More truck!" anyway when it turned the corner.

We love you!
