Hair Cut



Here is a recent pic of our boys.... We are really happy in our new home and didn't realize how bad the other house was effecting us. Ugh....not fun! Things are going well now and it feels like our life is now moving forward instead of just being stuck in a rut. The boys are in a new school which they really like. Caleb is the only foreigner in his class, so we are hoping he picks up a lot of Arabic, and Judah is one of 2 foreigners in his class. His teacher today said he is a great student and is learning his days of the week in Arabic and English. So cool....And lately Mason has been impressing everyone at our new language school with his sign language. When trying to teach him sign language to say "Thank you" instead of putting his hand on his chin, which is the correct way, he would put his hand on his head. There is a saying in Arabic which is "Ala Rasee" and it means "on my head", it is used when you are saying that you are responsible for something, or you will take responsibility for something. So Mike turned Mason's thank you into "Ala Rasee" which is very cute and impresses everyone. It has been funny too, while we are in our tutoring session, which we bring Mason to, we are telling stories and in one of the pictures there is a boy that gets stuck on the top of a deer's head, so when either Mike or I will say "on his head" in Arabic Mason will pat on his head. It is very cute!


Judah recently got ahold of the clippers and came out of the bathroom so proud of himself. This is the result....
