Christmas and new year
The Christmas holiday has been quite relaxed and low-key. It rained almost non-stop for the first 10 days, and we hardly went out of the house. We spent Christmas day at home, and went for a walk in the afternoon. The kids were spoiled, with presents from family and friends.
We spent new years eve with brothers ans sisters from the church and welcomed the new year together.
One of the main activities of this holiday was to move the study to a bigger room. I am now sharing with Jean-Baptiste’s bedroom. It’s not ideal, but we hope it will work out fine for the time being. Maxime and Benjamin are now sharing a bedroom, where the study used to be.
The holiday is coming to an end and the children will go back to school on Monday.
