AM I FASHIONABLE?

Dear friends ,

I’ve stayed with Chiara for three days. When she took me home her family was very happy to host me again. Her brother was thrilled about playing with me again. When he saw me he jumped and shouted of joy and, to tell the truth, I was happy I could play with him, and above all with his toys!!! Mattia, (this is the name of Chiara’s brother) is younger than Chiara, he is 6 years old. He’s tall and thin, he has brown hair and brown eyes.

Unfortunately the weather is getting worse and worse so I’m spending most of my time at home because Chiara doesn’t want me to run the risk of catching a cold. But when she is at school I always ask her mother to let me go shopping with her. Yesterday, for example we bought a lot of things: meat, pasta, vegetables, fruit and Chiara’s mother also bought me some candy because she says I’m a very good guy!

Chiara told me what Bea is doing in Kansas and that she has a new bandana. So I wore a pair of sunglasses to be as fashionable as she. Do you like my pictures?

I know that you’re going to send us some Christmas cards? I hope there’s also a card for me! Please, don’t forget me. You know I love you so much.

Hugs, Ted

Family Night

Hi!
The students had a Family Night last week and a lot of people came to it. We had pizza (3 kinds, cheese, pepperoni, and hamburger). They also had cookies and colas to drink. Parents, students, and their brothers and sisters came to the school. After we ate we made some art projects. It was fun to make them and visit with all the people there. The computers were set up to look at our blog. I heard that other schools in Wichita have seen our blog and enjoy reading it. It is starting to get alittle colder here, I may need a coat soon! I can't wait to see snow and play in it. Last year they had a lot of snow in Wichita, I wonder how much they will have while I am here? Sometimes they have to miss school if the roads are bad from the snow and ice. On the 27th it will be Thanksgiving, a holiday here. Everyone is talking about all the food that is served that day, I am really looking forward to eating all the food! I may have to start working out like Ted, so I don't gain a lot of weight! I am so happy everyone still thinks I am beautiful and want me to be with them. I love all the attention. The students here are very busy with their studies, they have a lot of work to do in their classes. At least we had a fun evening at Family Night and could relax, eat, and made art projects. I will tell you more about our art projects later.
I love you all, and miss you very much. How is school? What are we studying about now?
Love, Bea

I LIKE GOING TO THE CINEMA WITH GIRLS!!!

Dear friends,

I want to write what I did yesterday.
I’m at Federica’s, at last! I was looking forward to staying with her!
I’ve known her brother, he is very nice, but he is sometimes naughty because he often quarrels with Federica. He is as lazy as me, he always messes up his room; the only difference between us is that I’m a bit plump, while he is thin.
Last Saturday night Federica took me to Alice’s; her classmate Giorgia was also there: they wanted to go to the cinema, so they sought my advice on their hair look and their make up. I was glad to help them; we took some photos, they are beautiful. As soon as we arrived at the cinema they went to the toilet again and asked me for more advice! What a boredom! They are gorgeous, why are they so worried about their look?
We saw a film “la fidanzata di papa”. Its title in English is “Dad’s fiancé” and the main actor is Massimo Boldi, an Italian comic actor. I liked the film very much because it was very funny.
When the first half of the film was over we went to the bar and Federica bought me some chips and a glass of coke. They were yummy!
When we came back home I went to bed with Federica. I was sleeping blissfully when, at about 3:00 a.m., I woke with a start! I heard some noises and some voices, then I realized that Federica was talking in her sleep. I was so frightened! She said she was warm and had a pain in her leg.
Luckily she stopped soon.

What are you doing over there? I hope you're fine!

Love, Ted
