Bye-Bye Tsering (sniff)

We said goodbye to our beloved Nanny Tsering earlier this week. Rohan will be going off to school after we return from India - he'll be 3, and he's really ready for school.

It's hard to say goodbye to someone who has loved your children every day, all day, for over 2 years. (And let me not go too deeply into it, but as a person, Tsering is a calm, sweet, loving woman who is efficient with households as well, so she not only kept us picked up and in order physically, but mentally & emotionally too).

Tears were shed; it was a bittersweet moment. She will still care for our sharecare partner, "Baby Desmond" who's now 1 year old; so we hope to see her again on occasion for babysitting.

In related news, we're going through the public school search process - saw our "Neighborhood school" (which we have only a slim chance of getting a seat at); so that, plus we're on the eve-eve now of Yogesh's 40th year - it should be an interesting year of transitions for us. :)

Wholly Cow! Rascals enjoy a pre-dinner treat

Our boys were treated to some of Clover Stornetta's finest this
evening at the local Noe Valley Whole Foods.

They enjoyed the chocolate milk so much, all that was left by the time
we got to the checkout was their chocolate milk mustaches. :)
