The Wisdom of LiLi

At the Thanksgiving feast LiLi asked everyone "what is beyond the Universe " No one had an answer. Then she came up with one "Maybe it's the future!"

LiLi Talk

LiLi heard us talk about using oil and on the salad at dinner. We eat Oil ? Yes I said but there are different kinds of oil . Th i is olive oil there is vegetable oil , peanut oil and and other types of oil that you can't.

She said what kind is that ?
I explained about using different types of oil in your car.
She said oh yeah like gas
Yes I said

She said the earth is made of gas and fire

Wow I said that is very smart?
Do you know where the Earth is? ( Thinking she didn't really know what the Earth was )
Between Venus and Mars she said

For this I had to think .. this is right ..of course .
I started to tell her about the different planets. Then she started to tell me about gas storms on the gas planets.

Yes indeed she is the master of learning

Life Is Good

Each Friday we gather with the other parents at the Montesorri -By -The Sea at Pass-a Grille Beach. We drink wine or beer, listen to the music and watch the sunset while watching our children play in the surf. The Beach is among the most beautiful anywhere.. and the other parents are so nice.

LiLi is four and a half . She loves her playmates .. especially Finn who she is with almost every day in the afternoon . Finn's Dad is from ..guess where ..Findland .and a cool guy . He drives Finn to school by bike and rarely uses a car. He dropped out of a business related professional job to make chairs by hand .. He is locally famous. Her other friend is Isabelle . She is a year and half older and LiLi worships her. Her Dad is from Morocco..... as you can see it's an international school.

She made her first word in the sand last week . She now has good sand writing.

Life is good ..

The Crawfish Festival

Pam was not feeling well. So instead I took this other girl . It was a great date. Gela Delafose was playing . We arrived and looked at the band for a while . We ate etouffe and sat on the seawall together and looked at the city lights. She was frisky and climbed on my back .. We ran around and chased each other falling to the ground,,laughing . She wanted to dance . We went to the center of the dance floor. Every noticed her and said how beautiful she was . We dance with abadon . The Cajun beat was inspiring. It was getting late and we decided to go back to the car. She said" Let's dance back " We could still hear the music. We laughed and dance on the sidewalk .. " I thought to myself " This is the greatest date I have every had '.This girl is so interesting ..and she is only four years old ..and my daughter"
