20 October 2010: DAY 293 (WEEK 43)

it was such a beautiful sunny day but i was cold. i took some photos of the trees near our house... here you can see how they leaves have turned into golden yellow...


and i changed the focus of my shot to focus on this tree (on the foreground) that has turned brown early.


and the leaves covering the our lawn...


and the most interesting story of the day --
i usually pick up the kids at the drop off point at 3:55pm... so me and sofia get leave the house at 3:50 (it is a very short walk to the drop off point). but at 3:45, just when i was still putting sofia's shoes, we heard a loud knocking at the back door! i was not expecting any visitor and usually if it is my brother, he would know lightly and then open the door because he has keys. hmmmm who could it be??? and when i looked out my kitchen window i saw rafael and isabelle!! hahaha... the bus came early and since they didn't see me at the drop off point they decided to walk home. i was really happy to see them. i grabbed my camera quickly to take a picture of them...and even sofia stood beside them pretending she came from school too..hahaha!


and that evening while i was preparing dinner, isabelle was trying to read her assigned book by herself. there were some words that she found difficult to read so i helped her..but she managed mostly on her own!

Here on the beach we tend to forget about fall. Seeing your photos of leaves last night reminded about fall, leaves, changing colors, and (the bad part) raking leaves. I need to see if one of the kids have been to our house lately, and ask how bad our yard looks.
