As is the 'norm' Isabella asked to be taken back to school as soon as we were finished at Children's today. Normally there is a teacher in the reception area at school only too willing to accompany Isabella up to her classroom or down to the playground. Today nobody was hanging around so I strolled down there with her. Her teacher gave her a warm welcome and looked at me and said "amazing, I don't know how she does it?" And neither do we, but then one of the girls spied Isabella and shouted "ISABELLA'S HERE" and several of the girls came running. It brought a smile to Isabella's face, she was back where she wanted to be once more. Thank you.
Peter and Janie arrive from London on Saturday in time for the birthday celebrations. Isabella turns 7 on Sunday. Matilde wants to give Isabella a 'doctor kit' so they can play doctors and we've found the game of Operation to add to the fun. That was a classic in our youth, but no doubt Isabella will have comments on how realistic or not it is!
The heat and humidity seem to have returned to DC, not to mention the mosquitoes, but we're keeping cool in our new basement watching Wimbledon when we are not splashing in the pool.
Lots of love
Emma & Gregorio. xxx

I remember playing operation in Monckton Road!! I hope the girls like it as much as we did. Glad you've had an uneventful week - about time you had one of those! I hope Isabella is feeling ok today and is back to normal in time for her birthday on Sunday, a huge Happy Birthday from all of us. Emma, Yanni, Anna and George (who turned 3 on Tuesday!!) xxxxxx
