Tuesday and Wednesday

We spent Tuesday and Wednesday getting to know the kids. On Tuesday, we stayed at the guest home all day. The first 24 hours were interesting. The kids sleep very well: 3-hour naps and 11 hours at night. Both kids eat very well: but still prefer traditional food. Our hearts go out to them when we watch them eat. They eat very fast and will eat as much as we give them -- as if the meal would be their last for a while.

Zenash knows quite a bit of English. She can count to at least 50. She knows the alphabet and basic colors. And she's learning fast. Her favorite thing to say is "Thank you, your welcome."

Elias is a sweet kid. But he definitely has some issues with authority. He has made vast improvements over the past two days.

We have our embassy trip today and will be eating out with the kids.
