We all wondered when it would happen. I suppose it's inevitable. It's only natural.
Aine and Emma are starting to pick up an English accent! At first I thought I was imagining it, but they are definitely starting to change their inflections and pronounciations. Aine seems to be picking it up more so than Emma. It cracks me up to hear them use the English vernacular in their conversations. "It was brilliant, mummy!" "Thank you ever so much." "I'm feeling very poorly!" "I'm absolutely shattered!"
It will be interesting to see how people react when we come back for a visit. I'm not sure when that will be, but hopefully soon. I miss home so much sometimes it's like a hole in my chest. I'm afraid that when we do come back, it will be hard to get back in the swing of things. People will have moved on or moved away. Don't forget about me, ok!?
