Look At Me!

The other day I was on the phone, and somewhere in the background, I could hear Klaudia calling me.  But it wasn't until she said:  Mommy, look at me! when she finally got my attention.  I noticed her doing the same thing to Maya and Len, and surprisingly it worked every time.  She must have learned this at school, where in order to get their attention, a teacher would ask kids to look into her eyes. 

But the other morning, it sounded a little cuter, when Klaudia found candy wrappers on the table from the night before and asked:  Daddy, what are these?  After getting no response, she firmly asked again:  Daddy, look at me!  What are these?

Our Life in Africa

A few weeks ago we had a tarantula crawling on the side of our house.  Last weekend, there was a bobcat in our backyard.  And this past Friday night when driving home, an owl came out of nowhere hitting the side of our minivan ripping the side mirror off.  Sometimes it feels like we live in Africa.
