Roses

It's rose season and there are beautiful blooms everywhere. We made a special trip to Mainau Island to try and catch the rose display there. We were a little disappointed that there weren't roses throughout the island (as there had been for the tulip season) but there was a part that was really very pretty. My apologies for the numerous pictures of flower after flower.

Joseph also took part in his first sports day at ICS. It was a very friendly affair.

Benjamin had his first sleepover at school. His brave teachers decided to organize a sleepover for the class as a nice finish to the year. All the kids had a great time and slept through the night! Amazing! Ben had a lovely time and I think he was, true to form, one of the first to sleep and one of the last to wake. Thank you, Nilde and Myriam!



Sandra and Walter. My cousin in Bern kindly invited us to her place for lunch. After that, we went for a walk in the forest. The boys had a wonderful time together.

Rainbow - my gift from Joseph for Mother's Day. A beautiful plant with such pretty flowers.
