Getting settled


The last week went by so fast. Philip started with Kindergarten, which goes every day from 7.30-12.30. Next week he will go three days till 2.30 and two till 4.30. He will eat his lunch there and will have a little resttime. I will report how he is dealing with the longer days. Even he loves his new Kindergarten, he of course has trouble to communicate with his new friends. But kids can talk,even without the same language. Philip already brought home a few new phrases and words, like "Los gehts". That means "Let's go". With that phrase he is rushing me out of the house in the morning :)
Nicky still enjoys his lazy mornings. He sleeps till about eight, then a little TV, then his breakfast and then we do something fun.
Nicky lost his two front bottom teeth last week. Both where never found, you can guess where they endet up :( He looks funny now. It made me sad, he is growing up.....

Yesterday and today we made walks in the nearby forest and fields . Its so beautyful; i was stunned. It felled like vacation in tuscany. The air is filled with sounds from the birds and is full with smells from flowers.
There is a path going from our town to the next one, about 2 miles away. The path is named ''Hochzeitsweg" which means ''Wedding-path". It goes through forest and fields. The fields are not belaboured, so many butterflys, bees and birds feel home here.
Philip found a watchingtower, but look for yourself.....
