[Games] Re: Congratulations!
We wered delighted to welcome Elodia, Andre and Mellisa into our home. Elodia just started her freshman year at one of the best exam schools in Portsmouth, which she got into despite the different curriculum she had been learning in Spain. She is really enjoying high school and is making lots of new friends. In addition, she is taking Japanese as her foreign language and is playing soccer on the freshman team.
Andre is in the neighborhood middle school in eighth grade. He was a little hesitant and worried about starting school becasue of his stutter, but he has found some nice friends and is beginning to feel more confident in speaking English. He has joined the swim team at the local Y, and is really enjoying that a lot. He also love trips to the college library with Charlotte.
Melissa has started pre-school three days a week, and is in daycare the other two days. She loves gymnastics, and can't wait to join a team when she is eight years old.
The family is planning a trip with all five Hammel children to Spain this summer.
