Today the littlest dhl truck went by. We have seen UPS trucks like this maybe 5 times in 7 months. I always think of Karen and Ray! HI GUYS!! Anyway, happened to have the camera out and Rob snapped a quick one while it was parked outside our building.
Other photo is yesterday at art class. These 2 boys wanted a photo of their Matisse pieces. yes, Betty, the entire sloped alley and the beads in windows - that is ALL the art place! It is so artistically stimulating, everyone I take there oh's and ah's and feels overwhelmed. :)
Joshua is doing well in Arabic writing/reading. Today I read the Arabic word for Pepsi which literally translated is (bee-yib-see said quickly tho). I am showing you a sample of his work from today. the word for pony is "see see" basically. And then sushi is well...sushi! ha ha!! Thought you'd enjoy these 3 pics today!! *sorry, couldn't get it to scan in a format to show here...hmmmm???*
By the way, the "African American" comments had me snickering...people here say I am an African American - know why? Well, I'm an American (citizenship, my parents and their parents live there and speak the language). I actually have now lived in Africa as a home - not as a tourist. And I speak an African language. I think after the last post, this may make you all smile!
Some Egyptians say I'm an Egyptian, some say I'm an African. Lots of Sudanese say I'm Egyptian-African now :)
and now I'm off to have a frozen popsicle in one hand and a hunk of pork bacon in the other DEFINITELY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOT EYPGTIAN this afternoon!

I love how much you all have grown since moving there 7 short months ago! Keep on studying and growing - physically, mentally, and socially - and I don't think I'll recognize all of you when you get back. :)
That's a good thing by the way! Hugs!!!!
