Things I am loving right now
1. The looks on the Leafy Boy’s face when he’s watching his baby brother.
This one…
and this one.
2. Our new van! We finally got one! I was just talking to my mom the other day and she asked me if we’d managed to find a van yet. I told her no, it’s been difficult, and then that very day someone came by with one that was in the condition and price range we were looking for.
Good thing, too, because with our family size there’s no way we’re all fitting on a scooter anymore. We will keep the scooter because we can zip around with it, but for all being together, there’s nothing like a little Omni.
3. Going to the beach in our new van, and instantly finding ourselves in the midst of an Indian crowd. Very nice ladies trying to sell us their goods, Indian tourists wanting to take our pictures. And of course the coastline and waves were nice too. We really haven’t had too many outings all together for a long time.
4. You can’t see really in this picture, but we are looking at little tiny flowers. The kids and I have been studying flowers lately, and I loved how they picked some off a bush while we were at the beach and had me help them identify the parts. Stamens! Pistil! Sepals! Petals! Learning is fun.
5. The YaYa sister making her first chapati with Jaya.
So sweet.
When she was done, Jaya said, “She is making a very nice chapati. YaYa is learning very quickly!”
Tomorrow, it’s Kid A’s turn!

Thanks for sharing some of your life with us! We felt almost like we were there with you. I am so glad that you got your van and that it was exactly what you wanted. Doug will be glad as well.
You look so good in your pictures….. nice and slim, no one would know that you just had a baby. Hey girl, you rock!
