September in 20

September 2026. Here are 20 snapshots of our month of September. The main even was back-to-school, which is in another post.

Enjoy!

Papi Pierre and Django and croissants, coke and a coffee.

Jesus, Joy, Youth. A group of young adults have started a group to meet with other churches 18-30 year-olds. These shirts are to raise money for the events.

Defrosting the freezer after a very hot summer. It took me 3 hours.

Thankful our kids like to read.

Soccer birthday party. Django waits his turn while cheering on the others.

Does it get better than this? Leading worship with Daphné and Tonio.

She has learned the treasure of thrift store shopping, which makes me so happy! This store was in Marseille when we went to renew passports.

Eating at a restaurant in Marseille.

All the neighbors in our building had a party in the garden courtyard, and two of the kids came up to our house to play. Daphné crafting with one.

Django “LEGO-ing” with the other.

He designed his own license plate.

Daphné about to leave for a week with her class into the mountains.

All the 6th graders together.

Daphné’s class at the Valberg planetarium.

The last night, they had a dance party.

Django has a deep love and appreciation for motorcycles, especially ones that look cool like this one.

Happy kid in class.

Me with my friends Ave and Maki. We’ve been friends now for 10 years, raising cross-culture bilingual kids in France. United States, Estonia, Japan. Love them so much!

Studious eaters.

Sometimes dinner looks like this.

I am so thankful for this month. It was kind of a blur, but a blessing just the same. Praise God for His goodness in the busy and in the calm.
