If all days were as easy as today, then this au-pairing would be the easiest ever! Crazy Mother Caroline and Juliette are in Paris for the week, so it's just me, Margot and Marie and Rosie! And everyone knows that two kids are better than three. So we got to school on time of course, and this evening the school run was stress-free, and we were actually early for tennis and all the traffic lights seemed to be green for once! :O
Today I took Rosie up the Eiffel Tower, and just upon arrival we were already amazed at how long the queue was for the lift up, but no queue at all for the stairs. Not that we had to make a decision at all, because part of going up and seeing the Eiffel Tower is about walking up the hundreds of stairs!! It was fun, tiring, and very hot. Rosie appears to have brought sweltering sunshine with her, and boy-oh-boy it was hot today! We then walked back up the Champs Elysees and checked out the H&M flagship store and Louis Vuitton (of course).
Food shopping this afternoon was successful and quick, although that wasn't too surprising with the small amount of money we had to spend... Juliette remains in Paris for the week, Margot doesn't have school tomorrow and Marie doesn't have school on Thursday, and I have no answers to any of the 'why's'. But we won't be babysitting in the daytime... it just means we'll be getting back to congealed pasta, melted butter and mess.
