Hi Char,

Excuse me, I should have written it in two languages and then most everyone would have understood. I thought I'd do something special for Antonio and write in his own language so that he would feel comfortable. So often we forget how it is when we are in a foreign place and don't know the language, sometimes uncomfortable, so yesterday I tried something new and let Antonio be the one with the language he knows and let the rest figure it out. But you are right, so in the future, I'll write in both English and Italian. Maybe in the end, all of us can learn to speak Italian together?

Good for you on the miniatures. I love everything thats small. I grow miniature roses in my garden. They are so pretty and have only little thorns, but the best small things in the world are babies and children. In them the light of the world still exists, they are so excited to begin their day and everyday is brand new, an adventure awaits at every corner of the room. Sometimes, it might be fun if we could remember what that was like instead of having to go so far from home to have an adventure.

I made a miniature house of the one I live in now and in the future look forward to making one of my new home.

Pat
