New Friends

Caleb and Judah have made some friends with the boys who live in our apartment building.  There is another family that have 4 boys, the oldest is 11 and the youngest is 2.  Their favorite of the four is the 9 year old, named Ka'is.  Not sure how you spell it, but that is about how you would say it.  They are from the same family that I brought the apple pie to.

Today they were calling up to Ka'is and his brothers to their balcony for them to come and play.  The cute part about it is that they were calling to him in Arabic.  Caleb is constantly coming to us now and asking how to say this or that in Arabic.  I wonder how long it will take he and Judah to catch on and start talking more and more?

Overall not a very eventful day in the Crane household.  I went to the dreaded grocery store, which I am glad I did, and glad it is over.  It is funny, when we lived in India and I was pregnant I would have reoccurring dreams that I was wandering the isles of grocery stores, and now it seems like such a chore to have to go.  Anyway, I did that....Mike took the boys to the park, and then we were home and the boys played with the neighbors.

Oh, I was actually supposed to go to school today, but Amman was having it's first ever International Marathon, so most of the streets that we would take to get to school were closed.  So we stayed home instead.  

oh, and I worked on getting our newsletter out, which most of you may have gotten.  Hopefully not too many times.....I am having the darnedest time getting all my contacts in order.  It is just one of those things that takes forever to do, and well.....time is not always on my side these days.  So, I apologize if that is the case.  And if you would like to get a copy, just let me know.

For now I will get going.

Blessings!
