While taking her bath, she asked for "air conditioner." At first I thought I misunderstood her (because, after all, you can't really lipread "H"), but Rachael, passing by, confirmed that she did indeed ask for AC.
Another one: "Mom, can you check my ears with q-picks?"

Avant Garde Vegan Poetry
Matt (at dinner tonight, eyeing his bean soup suspiciously): Mom, is there tofu in this?
Rachael (starting to giggle): Tofu? Tofu?
Then all the kids pick it up on the silliness and start repeating it and singing it over and over again..."Tofu....tofu....tofuuuuuuuu!"
Rachael: What's tofu?
Me: It's bean curd.
Matt (perking up): Bean curd? Bean curd? Bean currrrrrrrd?
Rachael (starting to giggle): Tofu? Tofu?
Then all the kids pick it up on the silliness and start repeating it and singing it over and over again..."Tofu....tofu....tofuuuuuuuu!"
Rachael: What's tofu?
Me: It's bean curd.
Matt (perking up): Bean curd? Bean curd? Bean currrrrrrrd?

I just hung back, ate Jelly Bellies, sipped my cappuccino, and snapped the occasional photo. Ah, it's so nice to have kids old enough to work...but young enough to still consider it fun.
Of course, in Storeyland, ALL work seems like fun, because we are such top-notch parents. ;-)
Up next: scrubbing grout with a toothbrush! They can hardly contain their excitement. (No, Miriam, don't use your Winnie the Pooh toothbrush.)
(p.s. could one of you expert bloggers PLEASE give me a tutorial on posting blog photos?)

Kevin
This is Kevin. He was a primary school student at AFE until Tuesday morning, when he was killed by a garbage truck while working with his family at the dump in Tegucigalpa. My heart is broken for his family (including several siblings who are also students at the school). Thanking God for the ministry at AFE and that they were able to share His love and the gospel with him, so now he is in Heaven instead of the earthly Hell of the dump. Pastor Jeony (director of AFE) posted this tribute to him: http://afehonduras.blogspot.com/2012/01/la-gran-perdida.html.
