A call from Oprah

On Wednesday, I received a called from the producers of the Oprah show. They are planning a show on Haitian paroled orphans and they were looking for guests. I don't know if we will be heading to Chicago, but I sent photos and gave them access to the blog. Even if we don't go, such a cool conversation. I'll keep you all posted.

I go back to school on Monday. Pray that we will be able to get out of the house with few tears and that I won't forget anything important. So much to remember. Now, reality of working full time, managing a house, and kids and a crazy cat. Think she is really upset there are gates and she is annoyed she has to jump to get her food. Aliette is fascinated with the cat's water dispenser, so I needed to move it.

Daisies and Daffodils

My girls both love to pose for the camera.

Look Mom no hands!




Okay, mom you got a great shot can we now go and feed the ducks?

My girls stopping to smell the flowers!

More photos to follow. My friend Renee took lots while I entertained Aliette. We had a great time feeding the ducks, blowing bubbles, walking on walls and acting silly. I just love spring weather. It is so nice to be outside again.









Glorious Day

Who needs an egg hunt when your cousins bring the eggs and candy to you!

All the cousins in their Easter finest waiting for the egg hunt to begin and putting up with the grown up taking so many pictures.

Happy Easter











We had a great Easter. Olivia is an old pro at the Egg hunt. She let the little ones in the number of eggs found. Every once in a while she would check on Aliette to see if she was having fun with her two eggs! Olivia was off last week and we had fun hanging out and doing all sorts of neat things, but dinosaurs weren't among them. We went to Sears for our 1st family portrait and I'm so happy with how they came out. I've been taking pictures, so I will post them soon, but until then enjoy a few by the professionals. Happy Easter.
