Unsure of the hat.

Still wondering why there is so much wind.

Walking around with Mamie.

A little of what we do...

...at Calvary Chapel Nice

Practice with our little Daphné at our feet.

 
Worship practice.  Sometimes Daphné chimes in with her little voice.

Ooooo... piano!

Tonio teaching Thursday night.

Learn the Bible in 24 hours.

Christmas Eve worship service.

Time of prayer.

My handsome leading us in worshiping our amazing God!

I love when I get to sing harmony with my man.

More Thursday night teachings.

Tonio teaching on a Sunday morning.  He has a gift from the Lord.

Easter morning worship practice selfie.

Faithfully teaching through the Bible.  In fact, we only have 5 more classes left out of 24!

We are thankful and blessed to be able to do what we do.

My mommy friends and their littles

I'm so thankful to have found an international moms group, from which I've made 2 really sweet mommy friends, Maki and Ave.

Here we are at Ave's little guy's first birthday party :

It was fun to meet all the husbands and more friends with kids.

Daphné slept through much of the festivities, but thanks to this fancy device, I could keep an eye on her in the next room. 

Making herself at home.

Maki's little guy Toma, another little girl and the birthday boy Astor.

Happy first birthday Astor!!!

The week after, I had the girls over to our place.

Maki & Juli, Ave & Astor, Me & Daphné.

A day at the park with Maki & Juli.

Maki giving Juli a piggyback ride.

Trying anything to keep a hat on this girl, even if it meant giving her mine.

She loves herself some park time.

Juli enjoying the yummy rolls her mommy made.

And here's a cute picture I received the same day from Ave.  She was enjoying the sun at the beach with her little guy Astor.

As you can see, Daphné is the hat rebel... grrr... I'm going to have to find a solution before summer.

A visit from Francesca

Francesca is the daughter in a family I knew way back when... she was little then... NOW she's big.  She came to visit us from Germany for her spring break to practice her high school French.  

Daphné enjoyed having someone to play with, and since Francesca is one of five kids, she's quite comfortable around babies.

She even let her play with her phone.  Wow!

Daphné is content.  Can you tell?

Big girl in a big girl café.

She enjoys sipping coffee folks, look out.  She doesn't get it from her mama!

Saying au revoir at the airport.  Daphné sandwich.
Thanks for the visit Francesca.  May God continue to lead and guide you!
