From the eyes of a child

September 20, 2010

If I didn’t have kids I would have walked right past these rabbits and chickens without much thought. With kids, it is a must stop and look and pet and really all around sweet moment.

Saturday in Zurich

September 13, 2010

We took the train to Zurich this past Saturday. The weather was gorgeous. What I love most about Zurich are the windows and the little streets darting off everywhere. I could get lost in those little streets full of those beautifully painted windows. Each time we visit a big city, I am left torn. Part [...]

My second grader is acting out and being mostly unbearable since school started. Every year, we go through this. In a week, she will be less nervous about starting a new grade and [...]

Taking it easy

July 12, 2010

We have been busy with summer, cleaning and moving in our new apartment, taking daytrips and LIVING like we never lived before in Switzerland. Did I tell you how much we love our balcony? It is seriously the most used spot in our apartment. I am so very happy to be free of the apartment [...]

Spotted in La Chaux-de-fonds

June 21, 2010

We took a much needed trip out of our village into La Chaux-de-fonds in search of a music festival that we never found. No matter. We walked in the city, took some pictures, did a little window shopping and snacked on bakery goods. I am so busy now preparing for our move right along with [...]

Today. My husband is 39. He took a day off from work. We ate cake twice. The kids made him gifts while we slept in and sang Happy Birthday in French and English just before going to bed. The day couldn’t have been more perfect. Happy Birthday, my sun!

Three years living in Switzerland

May 30, 2010

Since yesterday… We have been in Switzerland for three years. I went with the children to La Chaux-de-fonds to shop for shoes. Vilay stayed home to study. Three years ago, I would have been nervous to go alone by train with three kids in my new country. Even a little afraid. Now, I am at [...]
