5th week home

Some good weather:
working in the garden,
still school at home,
still work with internet...
Some decorative stuff in the terrasse.



Yuta making little videos


Dada came to give Amané some Astrapi
and a delicious cake !!!
She didn't enter the house...


While walking one hour, one kilometer 
around our house
Amané did some picking flowers


We played a game:
make the other laugh!


Soon 10 years old
but she still likes her bath...


and when has time
playing with her
playmobil...


Not enough space Amané !


Still home schooling,
but not so much:
Lucky!!!



We still make some arts workshops
during afternoon:
Amané likes painting !



I didn't feel good during week-end:
perhaps too much screens for my work..
I lay down in my bed,
and I received some great presents !


Reading mum comics !

Those days I have so much work
to do with foreign students.
More, one of them,
a Chinese girl was suddenly very ill:
she couldn't even move her head without vomiting.
Couldn't walk or eat.
It was hard to find a doctor 
who can go and look at her.
One of my colleague father
is a doctor an he could find one...
It took one week to my student to feel
a little bit better.
So I'm lucky Yuta is here.
He's taking care of Amané,
playing, creating with her
Avery afternoon...
Thank you Yuta !!!!



Listening to Japanese Prime Minister
while having lunch:
in Japan it will be state of emergency
but gouvernement can't ask people to stay at home
as in Europe.
We all hope it will be ok
for Miki's family 
and Jiji, Baba, Grand Baba.


We tried to connect with Jiji and Baba in Himeji.
Jiji and Amané are competition with magic.


Connection was not so good.
We'll try later.


Jiji's magic !
We could see they all look ok
even Grand Baba Hisae:
all smiling !!!


One hour, one kilometer around the house.


Creating some animals and their homes with her hands.


Writing and drawing a story with dad.


Playing basket with dad;




Picking flowers while we go out
one hour, one km....


Diner outside !


yuta's little pause


Amané swinging


She asked me to create an obstacle course...
I often did it before, even in our tiny living room...
But now, she grew up...
and even our garden is too small for that kind of sports.



dirty feet..


She did the barbecue with dad
to cook mackerel...


Luck to all we love !!!!!!


Easter Sunday, 
when it was not sure at all it can happen, 
because of the world crisis,
 the bells still went through our garden 
and left delicious chocolate eggs !!!!
Lucky we are !!!



Amané watched all over the garden to find them !!!
