We would have to either live or work in France. And I am not a fan of being home late when they are still really young (it applies to any member of the family).Annabellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307996916856027630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1714607023586830416.post-1430266161473544562015-03-03T21:46:50.211+01:002015-03-03T21:46:50.211+01:00Tough choice, we are also dealing with that.
