One of the things I miss most about the East Coast is the weather, especially during the summer. Turns out, Clermont L'Herault, where my parents live, has similar weather! We have enjoyed eating out on the terrace during some lovely warm summer evenings, and today we are listening to thunderstorms roll over us. So much for that bike ride... Dad and I did get out on the lake yesterday for a brief row, when the weather was better. It took me several minutes to progress from terrified of flipping the single, to confident enough to take a stroke or two. Unfortunately from there I went directly to over confident, which caused the boat to tip violently towards one side, and immediately sent me back to my original state of terrified.
In other news, Peter George turned 4 months old yesterday!
He is more and more fun every day. He makes all kinds of new noises, smiles whenever anyone smiles at him (including strangers in the market place), and has achieved a new milestone - grabbing his toes, which is now a favorite past time when he is alone on his play mat. We took him into the pool yesterday, and after a period of adjusting to what must be a very strange new sensation, he had a GREAT time flapping his arms and legs and splashing the water. He is an amazingly adaptable little person.
