    David has experienced being shunned, he feels for Louise and this gesture on his part is like signing a truce

    Yes, and those crepes are good. If you never had one, you are missing a taste delight

    It was appropriate that David did that. In a way, it was as if 'let bygones be bygone"

    Charles finished Ronnie’s home including a master suite on the first floor. Ronnie said he wanted two offices, one for Julie and one for him. According to Ronnie, teachers needed a home office. When I saw Ronnie’s home I thought it was huge compared to Richie’s. I did notice the beginnings of a roof garden over the double garages, I wondered if Richie would have a roof garden. I still miss the roof garden we had at the club. The memories we created there will last me a lifetime. When I mentioned

    Ronnie will always accept his child as will Armand and Colin and their family. Ronnie will be protective of all his children.

    There will always be problems but remember these children were adopted. They appreciate the family they have been adopted into. However, as their family grows, vacations will be a massive effort to coordinate. Maybe a little alone time for Colin and Armand would be a good thing.

    I think you and Armand are on the same wave path.

    David will be a sensitive young man. His admiration for Ronnie and Aemand approaches more than friendship, almost a devotion, He is cognisant of what they have done for him.

    Knowing Armand as I do, I'll expect a hiccup along the way. Colin already hit him with one, a stop in Barcelona.

    As much as Ronnie would like to have his own football team it isn't going to happen. Even if Lucile had a child every year, it would take a long time even taking into account twins. He needs to find another way. Maybe Armand can help him.

    Carlos and his family returned to Spain in time for the lambing. Now I had to plan our summer vacation. I wanted to visit the village. I had promised Carlos if we went to Europe this summer we would stop and see him. That meant a trip to Spain. I thought our trip to Paris could be shortened to a few days instead of a full week. If I plan this right, we could be gone for only 4 weeks of which two would be at the village. That evening I told Colin what I thought about our vacation this summer

    Pat is a gracious woman. Her attempt at creating an orphanage in Paris has left her down. But she is home and the children at the Home will raise her spirits. Louise's attitude has changed thanks to GG. If she was a descendant of Colin's father, she might have had a brain tumor causing her reaction to David and Armand. I think she is a spoiled child, thanks to Armand

    Yes and now the visiting cycle begins and poor David will need to learn a new language, or maybe two. Pat was disappointed but all will be okay.

    When she was adopted, Armand paid a lot of attention to her. Remember at the old orphanage Armand bottle-fed her. She related to him as a child does a parent, When she was adopted, she looked upon him as her father and demanded his time. Girls are more likely to associated with their fathers than their mothers. Boys are just the opposite.

    It is important for a child to remember their parents, Having them taken from you creates a feeling of loss and a child feels lost. A photo or painting allows a child to connect. GG with the painting brings a feeling of not being alone.

    I have visited France many times and you are right. you don't see many girls on the streets if you go to the bars, you will meet some attractive girls. of course, you will have to buy them drinks and they only drink champagne. Girls are pampered more in France, I think.

    She is an old friend and much cherished by Colin and Armand

    Grandma returned to Paris, Roger went with her and they were met by Arnaud and Jean. Pat returned and had to visit the Home. I told her she would be staying with us until she decided what she wanted to do. I knew she would want to spend time at the Home. What I didn’t know was as soon as we picked her up from her flight home, she wanted to go to the Home right away. Walking into the Home was like returning home for her. The children were glad to see her, I noticed the tears in her eyes as they

    I feel sorry for your grandparents. There was a time when big families were the norm but not anymore. i am supposing he stopped when they had the boy.
