The weekend kicked off with us watching The Iron Lady - the biographical film based on the life of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher - it focuses quite extensively on her decline into dementia which I found quite sad. Not sure how accurately it reflects true events, but Meryl Streep is pretty good in the role of PM.
Saturday morning was the end of term parents/children match at SAGS - so Thibaut was excited that J and I both played, albeit rather badly - speaking for myself of course. J was parent of the match, yet someone called me Maradonna as I accidentally scored a goal with my hand, of course it didn't count. Tatoum went to her swim lesson at the UN Rec and did really well.
Saturday evening J and I made the trek across to Karen to enjoy some Mussels from Brussels - Moules Marinières et frites, my goodness they were good - despite having sat in hideous traffic en route. They were served in a large pot with vegetables mixed up with the moules which I have never had before, leaving a scrumptious broth at the bottom.
Tatoum is missing her two little besties: TB is in the States for a long vacation; and IK is at the coast. And I miss their mummies too. A LOT ... they keep me sane here. So here is a photo of the trio playing doctors and nurses - TB told me at the time she was a princess patient, not just a patient... too cutie :)

We christened our new outside table and benches on Sunday with friends L and Y and their two cuties E and T: it was a fun relaxing brunch which made me want to take a nap later as I was SOOO relaxed. Thankfully I didn't have to clear up which is always a drag on a Sunday - listen to me, but hey you can certainly get used to all this help here in Kenya. It will be a rude awakening to go back to NYC. Yesterday of course was April Fool's Day and when J and T told me that Tatoum had fallen into the water at Village Market whilst attempting the stepping stones I thought it was a joke, but no... alas poor little bunny did fall in, cried for a second then thought it was hilarious, and proceeded to wander around VM in just pull-ups! Happy Birthday Thomas for yesterday! hope you are having fun skiing.
