4...four...for...fore...

4 days left - that has a nice sound to it =)

ready for another French tidbit?

4...

la semaine de quatre jours (the 4-day week)

preschools and elementary schools in France meet 4 times a week

 

wednesday is a day off, 

a day of rest, 

a day at the park with mom, 

a day for sports or other activities

let's just say, if Nice had a Disneyland, i would surely NOT go on a wednesday 

young kids are in school from 8:30am to 4:30pm M, T, Th, F

these long hours create exhausted children

the governement is looking into adding wednesday back in and shortening the days

something hard to imagine is that kids used to have school 6 days a week, saturday mornings were included - when Tonio and Sebastien were young, they had saturday school - crazy ! 

{not yet in France in the photo, but i wanted to share it with you}
i'm so blessed to have these two men in my life, especially Monsieur à Gauche
