Visiting with New Friends

Jen and Gigi and Theo came down from Greenwich today to meet Fernanda and Wendy and hang out with us. Thanks to Gigi's intrepid leadership, all the kids got in the sprinkler at the park!




It was a lazy rainy afternoon, so the girls spent time watching videos (Hello Kitty continues to be the favorite) and playing with their dolls.


After Chris came home we walked the dogs and drove down to Manhattan to see Mark, Laura, Elianna and Aliza. The girls had a great time hula-hooping in the gym in their building before we headed out for dinner together.






It's hard to believe we have only 5 more days together -- the girls return to Colombia early morning on next Tuesday, August 4. They have started to talk about it, especially Wendy, who has confirmed the departure date/number of days left every day for several days now. In some ways I'm sure they are happy to be returning to familiar surroundings, but in other ways it will be very difficult for all of us to say goodbye.
