We all think that Mark is a cutie, but it’s natural-he is our son. The funny part is that all his teachers at school also think he is the cutest thing ever-- so obedient and happy and hard working. He disarms them with his smile and he knows it!
And he is growing up fast.
He really enjoys going to school, where he has many friends, although we go through periods of time of “No one likes me, no one wants to be my friend”.
At our British school, each class puts on an assembly once a year. And a couple of weeks ago it was Mark’s class’ turn. I actually brought a camera this time (I totally forgot to bring one for Alex’s).
In assembly, kids show what they have been working on, anything interesting they have learned or tell about places they visited.
Here is Mark, amongst his twenty eight classmates.
Last month, his class went on a farm visit as a fieldtrip, so kids told about that trip and showed their pictures of the animals.
Apparently, Mark’s class was listening to many short stories lately, so they put on a little play about a troll and the goats. Guess who got to be the troll? Mark! I didn’t realize how big of a part it was (a non-speaking part, mind you), but it was a big deal-haha.
Do you see Mark in a mask with a long nose?
It was very fun and short and cute, just perfect for “mums”.
Well done, Mark!
I wanted to snap a picture with Mark’s main teachers—Mrs. Wallace…
…and with Mrs. Cole.
Oh, please, Mark, just keep smiling! You make my day when you do 
.

Mark and Alex still have six weeks of school left (it’s the middle of June…argh…), so we’ll see how much they grumble every morning knowing that Katya gets to stay home.
Have a great day!
Lyana.
