Great read!

I am blogging from work as we have no Internet at our house right now. Yesterday one of my blogging buddies had a guest blogger Rebecca Haile author of the book "Held at a Distance."

Here is the link to her blog: http://theeyesofmyeyesareopened.blogspot.com/

It is definitely worth reading and reflecting upon. I have yet to read her book but it is on my short list for sure. I am still thinking about that post and my role in raising my daughter to understand Ethiopia.

In Peanut news: We got a developmental check list for Peanut. We know just a little bit more about our sweet baby girl. We know that she squeals, is calmed by touch, can kick her legs while laying on her back, can bring her hands to her mouth, can track objects with her eyes, and a special someone told me she sucks her thumb. How cute! I hate that I can't see her doing all of these things but I have comfort in knowing that the nannies are amazing and that all of her needs are being met.
