We’ve all been very busy recently. Here are some of the piano pieces River has been playing recently. Actually, I think she’s just been playing these from one of her books rather than learning them for her lessons.
We had been learning Spanish in Massachusetts, but the kids have started French at Foremarke. I think they were a bit put off at first switch languages, but they seemed to be more interested in French after our trip to France last summer. I taught Sage this song last week when she was home sick.
Yesterday, I went to watch River’s second hockey match. They played very well! This video shows a bit of the game. It’s not the most exciting bit of action that I filmed, but it does have River in it, so…
In other academic news, Sage was awarded a Golden Leaf for being gentle,
and River got an Academic Star for her work on adverbs. These are excerpted from the Foremarke Flyer, a weekly newsletter that can be downloaded from Foremarke.

I loved the piano music and the singing. I have a neighbor who is going to let River, Evie and Henry play her piano for us while you are here.
River looked like she was having lots of fun playing hockey. Love, Grammy Gail

Hi to all of you!
I was so happy to hear your playing and singing that I felt like kissing the speaker on my desk!
River plays the piano so musically!
Sagey sings so sweetly!
And River plays field hockey so excellently! (I think I just made that adverb up!)
Love to everyone!! Grana
