Our girls are growing up! Sarah started Grade 4, or 4th grade as they say at ACS, and Hayley is now in 1st grade. Tuesday, August 25th was their first full day of school. Both girls seem happy with their teachers and ended the day with huge smiles, although they were very, very tired! They had a three day week to start off, then our new Friday/Saturday weekend, and it's back to school tomorrow. I hope Hayley's new teacher doesn't judge me when, on her Reading Log, we filled in Archie Comics for last week's nightly titles...

That's how long we've been in Amman, Jordan. Two weeks and three days. The morning after we arrived I jotted down these notes. So much has happened since then that these twelve stories hardly seem worth telling now!
