happenings

Winter has been good and not so nice for us. Good thing comes first, we had our one week vacation in the Alps I got the Flocon. Yes it was really a hard job for me. I gave my best and worked hard for it. I took one week lessons from 9Am to 5PM in between was lunch break (12 NN to 1:30 PM). Mayumi is still young to take lessons for Piou-Piou. Our parents just put her to kindergarten where there were kids of her age so she can be able to socialize. Papa joined the ski competition as he's been into it since he was a kid. He was aiming for gold though he is good skier but he's not physically trained. So he got the vermeil, silver and bronze for the different ski categories. It was funny when Papa told us that he was the oldest who joined the competition. All of them are teenagers ages 14 to 18. He became popular to the group. He also made this ski jumping category and it was impressive according to Maman who took a video . Papa is top 9 over 45 (not so sure of the number) participants. While Maman tried snowboarding for the last 3 days and she was really happy having that ultimate sensation that she's been dreaming of. She was really surprise that her knees were not affected and she thinks it is a good sign. Next year she decides to take lessons and finally found her next passion.

Second, it made us all sick. A lot of epidemic were infecting us but what can we do about it. My Maman had to go to Pediatrician once a week or even twice a week to make sure that we are treated right away. This is to avoid surprises in the end and not to aggravate the illness. Second, we thought our Maman is a superwoman....we were wrong ! We have witnessed one of her worst moment. She wasn't able to get up from bed. She had a terrible headache and extreme body pain. Good thing that our Papa can bring us to school before going straight at the office. He just needs to call the office to inform he will come late for work. Maman took an effort to prepare the meals for the day and prepare everything we need for school. Papa sacrificed to come at the office later and help Maman during the night. Yes everything is a sacrifice! As for us, we are proud to say that we were very cooperative during those times. We were extra behave and I guess that helped Maman to gradually recover.

All's well that ends well ! We are impatient for the coming of Spring !
