Looking at the pictures that I have taken, it occurred to me that I have been so busy with work and school. I have not taken enough pictures! I still feel that I spend time with them though, just not any trips that make me pull out the camera.
Encouraged by Renee's sudden interest, and more importantly, confidence in ski, I called up Paul, my old snowboarding pal and made another trip. I am now getting good at this itinerary. The only thing I didn't do it right this time was the choice between the half day and full day kids club (answer is full-day). Renee turned out to be a very good student. She follows the instructor and was the first one in position.
The trainers screwed up Renee's allocation this time such that she missed the class that she really belongs to. Once I realized it after following them for an hour, I took her out of the group. She was very confident in getting to the top and ski down with me. And she did very well.
Here is another picture of Renee on top of the hill ready to go down.
This, is something I can get used to. I cannot wait next year to take both Renee and Max with me. Max might whine a bit but I think he will be a good trooper
I don't remember taking this picture. I probably was either studying or in school. I sometimes have to catch up on their activities after coming back from school or study.
I have been taking the kids out to go either biking or just hanging out in the park. Recently, I have got hooked on geocaching. So I started going to the park with geocaches. This is the first geocache that we found. By "we" I meant "I", because they gave up long time ago before I really located it.
Max is getting better at school now. He plays well at the class, even though he is still the quiet and "polite" one. I start thinking "polite" might not be a nice words for our kids. However, this week, Max starts getting a hang of taking his toys to school for the letter of the week. The teacher told me that he is now the first one raising his hands, showing off his toy and reading the calendars. We of course have been giving him a lot of encouragements.
On a side note, I have been teaching him to greet the teachers when he arrives at school. He is able to carry on a short conversation with the teacher at the front desk. "Good morning." "Good morning Max! How are you?" "Good..." "Good is good! Have a nice day ok?" "You too".
Have a nice day!
