These are just a couple of pictures from our neighborhood, our street and our apartment building. Most people, about 90%, live in tall apartment complexes. We are told that once everyone returns from their summer homes the city will be really crowded. One day we hope to take a picture from the outskirts of the city so you can get an idea of just how many apartment buildings there are. Our boys seem to be enjoying their new home, even though they do not have a backyard! Caleb has been spending a lot of his time downstairs playing in the courtyard/parking lot of our apartment complex. Even though he is the only English speaker he seems to still have a good time, especially because the other boys enjoy soccer as well. It is somewhat funny to watch him as he interacts with the other children. Josiah will just keep speaking English, either not knowing or not caring that they do not understand him. Caleb, on the other hand, will say English words with a foreign accent. I'm not quite sure what foreign accent he is using but he thinks its working. Tomorrow I will actually go look into sending him to a national school, where we hope that he will learn some language.

Love the email about your visitors-very encouraging. Glad to hear things are on the up and up. Enjoyed the video of Caleb also (-:
Caleb will have to do his foreign accent for us next time we skype! That's impressive. Today at lunch, Elijah said , "Ted, boys, Lucas, old house..." Sorry Laura, us moms never get the recognition do we! lol! I love getting your updates!
