Easter

Hi again!
First of all thank you for your birthday wishes! I had a good day, with so many phone calls and messages that really made me happy and remind me of how fortunate I am to know so many cool people! I had some nice lunches with friends and nice cake celebration with my family. Luca even sung happy birthday to me and what a better gift than that!

Hola de nuevo!
Ante todo gracias por vuestras felicitaciones de cumple! Me lo pase bien, con tantisimas llamadas de telefono, de mensajes de felicitacion que me hicieron muy feliz y me recordaron de lo afortunada que soy de conocer a tanta gente guay! Tuve un par de comidas con amigas y una celebracion con tarta familiar. Luca me canto el cumpleanhos feliz y que mejor regalo que ese!

During Easter we traveled to be with family and we ha a great time. My sister sent us some Easter cookies that she made...amazing, so much that I don't want to eat them because they are too pretty...Luca had the best entertainment ever with his grandparents and aunt doing all the things that he likes the most! This time he is into policemen and so his aunt got him a policeman uniform that he wore the whole time we were there!! We all went to jail once and again, until we were bored of being there, but Luca had the best time of all taking care of the bad guys...today, to coincidentally, there was a policeman at his school!!! he showed them his weapons and uniform and talked about his job and let them into his car!!! HIS DREAM COME TRUE! It is awesome to see all these children with huge smiles coming out of school and with a police officer hat made by them. I couldn't be happier with his school, his teachers and all the wonderful things coming out of our experience living here.

Durante la Semana Santa viajamos para estar con nuestra familia y lo pasamos bien. Mi hermana nos habia mandado unas galletitas hechas por ella...increibles, tanto que me da pena comermelas porque son demasiado bonitas...Luca se lo paso en grande con sus abuelos y tia haciendo todas las cosas que le encantan! Ahora esta con que quiere ser policia de mayor y su tia le compro un uniforme de policia que no se quito ni un dia!! Todos fuimos a la carcel una y otra vez, hasta que nos aburrimos, pero Luca se lo paso de miedo cazando a los cacos...hoy, de casualidad, habia un policia visitando su colegio!!! SU SUENHO HECHO REALIDAD! Es increible ver a estos ninhos con esas sonrisas al salir del cole y con sus gorros de policias hechos por ellos mismos. La verdad es que estoy feliz con su cole, sus profes y todas las cosas que estamos haciendo durante esta experiencia viviendo aqui.

And today it was the celebration of the life of a man who lived a long and productive life, who had a wonderful family and who will be missed. It is sad to say goodbye, but it is good to celebrate the life of a loved one. I was fortunate to be part of that family 20 years ago and feel their pain.

Y hoy fue la celebracion de la vida de un hombre que vivio una vida larga y productiva, que tuvo una familia maravillosa y a quien echaremos de menos. Da pena decir adios, pero esta bien celebrar la vida de los seres queridos. Tuve la fortuna de ser parte de esa familia hace 20 anhos y siento su dolor.
