Freudian slips & other Noah-isms

When you're berating your son about lying, and he says, "Je ne mens pas, je travestis la vérité ! Heu... Non, c'est pas ça !"

("I'm not lying, I'm distorting the truth. Uh... wait, that's not what I meant!")

This is what bilingualism really looks like:

 "Je me suis déjà brushé les teeth en premier."

Swim meet at Crépy-en-Valois

Great swim meet today for Benjamin, who improved his times on the 100-meter backstroke, 800-meter freestyle (1:01 improvement over his December time!), 200-meter medley, 50-meter freestyle, and 200-meter backstroke!

Homemade Ravioli

We weren't able to hold him off for long. When we found out a friend had a ravioli pan, Noah asked to borrow it. There was no school today, so here we are! Delicious!

The proud chef.

Spinach-ricotta cannelloni

Noah has high aspirations as a chef, but we talked Noah out of homemade ravioli and into spinach-ricotta cannelloni. And it was great!

11!

We celebrated Noah's 11th birthday!
