A visit to a friend

A visit to Nathalie's, a friend of Rachel's includes snacks, les goutés and drinks, juice not wine folks. Natalie is a nurse who visits her patients in their homes. Le médicin, the doctor usually works out of their home, answers the phone when you call and does not have a nurse to assist. I have learned that teachers are poorly paid, making only 1300 euros a month. Since teachers are hard to find, parents with three children can now take a course for a year and be certified as a teacher. Since when does being a parent qualify one for being a teacher? Here is Alec with Milo, Nathalie's dog. I feel Milo is a bit of an exhibtionist. Everytime I called Milo for a photo he would flip over on his back and "pose"
