Part of cleaning out the guest room was cleaning out MY cabinet full of stuff/junk. One of the items I tossed out was the cloth covered boxes. My vases from Jingdezhen came in these boxes. No more room for empty boxes. But, Eleri had to play with them before they went out, of course. […]

For Christmas, Uncle Andy and Aunt Terri gave Eleri a rip stick. They gave Emersyn a rip stick for her 9th birthday. Emersyn spent a month riding the rip stick around the kitchen island. I wouldn’t let her take it outside as I had to pack the rip stick in the suitcase and I […]

Eleri came home from school yesterday to tell me she had a lose tooth. She begins the wiggling of the tooth to quicken the outcome. At breakfast, she asks what she should do if her tooth falls out at school. I am thinking, it isn’t that loose. Sure enough, she loses the tooth while […]

Eleri’s Christmas concert began at 6:30pm. This year for the first time the concert included grades k-4…that only means one thing – a long concert. I picked the girls up from school. We went to The Dragonfly to get our nails done before a quick dinner. After dinner and a change of clothes for […]

The annual Children’s Christmas Party with the expat association, SEA (Shanghai Expat Association) is full of crafts and fun for the kids. Emersyn said no to going this year. Therefore, Jennifer and I took Eleri and Sophie – they still love to make “stuff”. The event is held at the Four Seasons […]

Eleri had an assignment to make a musical instrument. Since she is the expert maker, she knew exactly what she wanted to do. She started with a kleenex box. After she painted all the corners brown, she was ready to put her idea together with a little help from Jim. They plugged in the […]
