Our crate arrived. It was like Christmas! After seeing what was available in our country and the prices of everything...we sure wished we had crated more!
Ms. Sojourner turned 9; boy am I starting to feel old. Next year we'll be in double digits?!
We got another care package; people are so great to us!
The girls' school had a "Fall Festival" and instead of carving pumpkins we carved watermelons. The girls were on "Team USA South" (they go to an English School with a variety of nationalities present, Ms. Sojourner was the only American in her class) andcan you guess what they decided to carve?
Each family had a booth and this was ours: a bean bag throw. I learned how hard stuff like this is without a Walmart, Target, or Craft Store nearby (or anywhere in country, or anywhere on continent).
We learned to make our own laundry soap.
And our own syrup.
Little Sojourner took a "music class" at the girls' school and she still talks about it...9 months later.
Can you tell care packages are super exciting to us?
