Blog 411

This blog was created for our friends and family who don't get to see us -- well, Jonathan and Elise, really -- as often as they'd like. I'm trying to keep you all updated on their milestones and their day-to-day activities. I also hope this will serve as sort of a journal for them as well, something for them to read when they are older that chronologues their lives and adventures. When I can, I'll post pictures and maybe even videos to help bridge the distance.

This blog is Part 2 of the Life of the Hardwicks. This edition will focus on our new lives in Atlanta, GA, that began in July 2013.

2013_01_14 Tuesday

The ToothFairy did make it overnight, with $2 and an apology note that there were an unusually high number of teeth to be picked up the night before and she just couldn't make it to GA before sunrise.

From Elise's school:
Bonjour! Welcome to France! The kids were whisked away to the land of cafes and lights today! X did a great job greeting her friends by saying "bonjour" to all of them. During art the kids constructed their own Eiffel tower with glue and toothpicks. X shared that his mom went to the top of the Eiffel Tower and brought him back a key chain! We discussed some foods that are French. X told his friends that he eats croissants at his house. We also discussed crepes, cheese and baguettes. X said that he is not allowed to eat too much junk food so he hopes all of those things are healthy! The kids completed a letter N worksheet. X shared with her friends that her brother's name starts with N. X did a great job singing our French counting song. Elise kept repeating "Un, Deux, Trois" for her friends. We actually counted up to ten and the kids did a great job remembering the numbers when we were finished. X shared his new French vocabulary with Ms. X, our Spanish teacher.  Au revoir! Salut! A bientot!
