Should “nous nous sommes impatientés” actually be “nous nous sommes impatientées” because the “nous” refers to Noémie (female) and her “famille” (a feminine word)?

A little issue

I enjoy these weekly writing challenges and learn a lot through them. Still, I become a little frustrated when it becomes evident that I have chosen different French translations for the suggested English words presented. My choices may be fine synonyms at best, but the concern is that they aren't really the best words for those contexts. I recognize the value of looking things up ourselves,
but would it be possible to provide the exact French vocabulary we are to learn for these exercises instead of the English?

Wrong English saying

The English recording says "the path" or sounds like it anyway, should be "a path".

Much better!

I commented previously on how confusing this lesson was—but it’s much better now. Getting rid of the e(X)er notation was a good idea and the logic of the whole lesson is more cohesive. Thanks very much.

être à vs possessive pronouns

Bonjour!

When to use être à vs the possessive pronouns? Spoken vs written or are they just interchangeable?

Merci :)
