\"Farewell

Farewell Hilda!<\/p><\/div>\n

Cake and Ice Cream<\/span><\/h3>\n

What could be better for celebrating\u00a0 spring!!<\/span><\/h3>\n

Monday night we gathered at my home to welcome in Spring!!<\/p>\n

This was Hilda’s last meeting after being a part of our group for two years.\u00a0\u00a0 We were so fortunate that her mother was visiting and was able to join us!\u00a0\u00a0 After introductions we settled down to the business of the up coming cultural fair, au pair marketing and the Boston Walk for Hunger.\u00a0\u00a0 It was a good time to talk about spring activities for the children and I was able to take them to the APIA site and show them the seasonal calender and Kids Corner, many of the girls did not know that these resources were so available to them!\u00a0\u00a0 A short discussion on disciplining children took place and an informative sheet was passed out with some additional info.\u00a0 We then sang Happy Birthday to May and some said tearful good-byes to Hilda.<\/p>\n

To end the evening the girls were given a choice of two games to play,\u00a0 Au Pair Bingo or\u00a0 using aluminum foil to design a dress (thank you counselors from our FACEBOOK page for the idea).\u00a0\u00a0 The costumes that were created were so inventive and the girls had so much fun!<\/p>\n
