Today was the first day of Sam's last semester of "jardin" or what they call pre-school in Chile. My little boy is growing up and today he was a little shy walking into school this morning. It is kind of ironic since for the last three weeks he wakes up every morning and asks, "Today I go to school, mommy? Posted by Melissa van Herksen. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple templat...

But in JJ's defense the boys were acting up a little with the baby and we both thought this would be a good project for them and a great opportunity to teach them a little about responsibility. Our job is to take care of her until "Adopt a Dog" finds her the perfect home. So far she has been a total puppy.as if I didn't have enough work with one baby in the house! Run ar...

Stamps in Our Passport. Mikah's Weekly Photo Project. Thursday, February 26, 2015. About a month ago we finally had the opportunity to escape to Zapallar, one of the beach towns about 2 hours from Santiago. We have heard this place was great, but I didn't realize how much I would like it. We only spent the day there and plan to go back one more time for a weekend before we move in May. I really hope we can make this happen. When we arrived we had lunch at one of two restaurants in town, El Chiringuito.
