Last but Not Least, Sacré-coeur

It's hard to think of my life as "charmed" while trudging through four ~20 page final papers. But then I spent an afternoon celebrating Baby's First Christmas with fellow grad students that've become friends, and, in many ways, my expat family. And from there, I recalled how only a few weeks ago I was introducing my mom and sister to my life here in Paris. "Charmed" my life may not be, but it is certainly blessed. We slept in on the last day {just catching up? day 1, 2a, 2b, 3a, 4b/5a, 5b}. And just before I wished them bon voyage on their flight home, we took a trip up to Sacré-Coeur in Montmartre. I hadn't been in years...   Now, I'm off to wrap up the second, third, and fourth of said final papers, in addition to polishing two final presentations. I intend to make the most of my last few days in Paris (before heading home for the holidays), too. Oh, and did I mention I'm going to Prague next weekend? Phew! It's going to be quite the week :).
