Can't figure out why I cannot get the text above this picture, so I'll just start blogging from here. We have had a busy couple of weeks since we came home. Lots of doctor appointments, speaking engagements, and catching up with friends we have missed for so long.The kids are continuing to adjust well. They talk about Kenya and their friends there all of the time, but they are also enjoying all of the new sights and sounds of America. Not to mention they feel like celebrities almost everywhere we go. At least at every event where the people know thay are Kenyan children.
Now, when I take them out to shop or eat it is another story. People in America are just not as open and friendly as they are in Kenya. In Kenya, the kids were stopped all of the time to greet people and shake hands. Here, they don't understand what my babies want when they extend their hands for a greeting. One lady even thought Sundi was asking her for her cell phone! Oh, well.
While Ruth was here, we took her to DC to see some of our memorials. Rick is a die hard American...love it! So, we thought she should see some of his country. We even saw the president pass over in his helicopter on a return trip from Ohio. Yeah, Ruth says, "Rick, eat your heart out!!!"

Mama Josie, Josie, and Sally all came for a visit the week after we came home. Man, were we excited. Mama Josie is one of Sundi's favorite persons in the whole world. We met the Nelsons over in Kenya. If you were with out blog then, you know all about them. Never dreamed Damon and Josie would be in my patio in a double stroller together. Wonder what the Smith's are doing with a double stroller!
