The Queen Fairy is making crepes


In the morning, we got the kids excited with crepes. Actually I am the one loving crepes, but I rarely make them as Paul is not a crepe lover. But today I was pretty sure that I would have a enthusiastic reception for them. I made a large bunch, and Ehal, as a sous-chef, learned how to spread the dough in the pan. Even Noam enjoyed his first bits of crepes. From his high chair, he also enjoyed the show of the other three talking, laughing and eating their breakfast. They are cool kids, with lots to say, with their little British accent! The breakfast dissolved into a dress-up game where I transformed into the Queen of Fairies. Leo wanted to make sure I was a real one, and I convinced him my popsicle stick was a magic wand in disguise, to fool Super Boys like him or Bad Knights like his brother.

As the sun was bright again, everybody got ready to go to the beach. We toyed with the idea of joining but decided against, as it would add an extra hour to our return trip to Upstate New York. The kids were really bummed out that Noam was not going to join them. In their really cute way, they just wanted us to stay... After some hugs and kisses we hit the road, right in time for Noam's morning nap.
