Family Party for Julia

Lovely Julia (with the short hair) goes back to college on Tuesday and we had an unusually big family party last night, where all six of my children and their partners and all six of my grandchildren were in one place at one time.
It is a remarkable family -- multiracial, multicultural and with so many personalities and inclinations. Laila and Loic and their three kids are panning to move to France for six months a year from now, where the kids will go to schools where the only language is French. Loic has always spoken to them in French, so they understand it, but they rarely speak it...except when they are in France.

What an adventure! They are all dual French and American citizens.

Sarah's three boys started school this past week; Laila's son and two daughters start tomorrow.

A great deal of attention last night was paid to Claire's belly, where she and Peter have a little girl growing, due to be born October 14.

Aidan and Kelsey arrived, as did Dylan and Meghan at our party eventually after they had a birthday party for Meghan at Dolores Park.
