it started with a lovely evening rain shower on the balcony where ezra and i have been sitting together quite a lot lately. we sat together in the evening and watched the clouds move quickly from left to right. ezra said he was cold moments before the rain came. in five minutes it had already passed.
on friday evening we went to the white coat ceremony to watch michael be inducted into the honors society. when ezra saw michael wearing a tie he wanted to have "a scarf" too. so i cut up an old pair of his black velvet corduroy pants into the perfect one-wear-tie for the night. he got several compliments on his tie and was very proud of his special attire.

ezra loves walking up these steps.
watching him take them one at a time with his daddy made me wonder if he will follow in his footsteps and also go to medical school one day.
for now i just love that he gets to wear sandals and shorts in the middle of winter and be free!
later that evening michael studied and ezra and i met with our friends at karakters - a fun beach bar and restaurant with live jazz friday nights. it was a great night with friends where ezra and bianca were happy to jump from table to table and land in the bean bags.
we finished up the weekend at baie longue with our good friend jon - a separate post is needed for the beautiful day we shared at the beach today. we are expecting clare and stella to arrive on tuesday and are ready for a week of island fun. after that we are handing over our car to its new owner and we will be enjoying the beauty in our immediate surroundings. i will do some if not all of our grocery shopping on foot and rely on the goodwill of my friends to help us get around. fortunately, i think i have some good karma in that department.
