Halloween si avvicina...
MAacome? Eleonora ride invece di tremare dalla paura?! Forse non sa cos'e' uno scheletro...
Battaglia delle foglie
che peccato, i nonni sono rientrati in Italia... ma io ho preparato delle bye bye cards per fare in modo che non si dimentichino di noi! La card per nonno l'ho lasciata bianca perche' - come ho spiegato a mamma - nonno si ricorda tutto, senza il bisogno di disegni ne' di scritte!!
A presto nonni!

38imo anniversario di matrimonio dei nonni veneti
una volta messo a punto il cibo, e' iniziata l'attesa che Barbara addormentasse i pupi... l'attesa e' durata un'ora e mezza...
...si iniziano a stappare le bottiglie... nell'attesa....

sono arrivati i nonni veneti!!!
Con nonna sto facendo dei collages e delle opere d'arte molto creative, mentre con nonno... beh, con nonno ci facciamo i dispettini come al solito!!
Questo invece e' il deposito dove nascondo i miei risparmi, stile di Paperon de' Paperoni. Ogni tanto mi precipito dentro al mio deposito dicendo che "vado a fare un tuffo tra le mie monete d'oro", e se qualcuno prova ad avvicinarsi, io metto in azione varie misure difensive "contro la banda Bassotti"!!
Particolare: la mia foto mentre cacciavo uno squalo (e' tutto vero!), messa sul deposito per ricordare a tutti i malintenzionati che io sono molto coraggioso!
e questo e' il famoso tesoro della caccia al tesoro toscana, conservato all'interno del deposito!!

la mia scuola nuova - my new school (No.2)
mum has been helping me with the new transition, she is spending half an hour every day with me a school and, as dad says, she is learning her ABC's again - so far she's deepended her knowledge of the letters S, T, C and K, etc. Mum thinks this is not funny but in truth she does enjoy it! Anyway this umbelical cord will have to be cut one of these days...
Do I like the new school? Indeed I love it! First, it is right INSIDE my favourite park! Second, it is only five minutes walk from home! Third, I have fun when I am at school. The hardest part is making new friends though. I so much miss my Washington friends and cannot think of making new ones at all. I am just waiting for Danilo to board a plane and come play with me here!

la scuola dell'obbligo
Domani lo accompagna Lorenzo!
After a glorious start, Leo yesterday realized that all kids must attend school, willingly or not. He therefore told us he has no intention of going to school any longer as it is not his choice.... And this morning he did what he had announced: he hang on my ankle for more than 10 minutes crying and shouting he would never let me go. Two teachers (with an horrified look) had to come and embrace him while I sneaked away - after applying various supposedly persuading techniques including bribing to convince him to remain calm.
Tomorrow Lorenzo will drop him off.

piccolo scienziato - little scientist
On our way to school we always find a lot of amazing things: one day we saw a fox, then we found a nice card on the pavement, then a couple of fake birds... I told my mom I am a very lucky boy. She then explained to me what destiny is. I replied that no, I am lucky not because that is my destiny, but because I have a good sight!!!!
la mia nuova scuola - my new school
Yesterday I got to be the classroom's Special Helper and I made sure I impressed the teachers with my nice behaviour. They also explained that for every good action, we earn a point, and after three points, we receive a special surprise (my mom called this a reward system, I am not sure what it means). Well, I am certainly interested in winning the surprise, but only after they tell me what it is!
Special Helpers wear a special golden medal and are busy helping the teachers all day. When my mom asked me whether Special Helpers work also during recess, in the playground, I had to explain to her that yes, we do have duties also during recess time. She then wanted to know what are we supposed to do during recess, and I told her very patiently that Specials Helpers during recess time have to very gently take their golden medals off. My mom smiled but I am not sure why.
At schoo, we need to do everything by ourselves. So, I have also started picking my own cloths in the morning and wearing them all by myself. My parents always scream of joy when they see the combination of trousers and shirts I choose for the day...
(now I should translate all this in Italian... well, maybe later...I am not sure how this bilingual blog will actually work out...)
