After weeks without I have finally added a new gallery to Lovable Quirks. In case I haven't mentioned previously I wanted to give some details about the kiddies. The first picture is of Tymek who is 13, the second of Hannah who is 11, third of Pawel aged 7, and fourth picture from the end is David who is 15. The oldest boy Jonathon I have yet to meet but you can see some pictures of him in the Friends from Poland album posted a few days ago from when Wiesieck and Jonathon and their friend visited Phoenix and my family. Pictures 4-8 and 11-14 include the family from Warsaw that I said was here visiting last week. Nancy the mother extraordinare is pictured in the 8th picture from the end.

I continue to spend my days having copious opportunity for chats and learning with Nancy and time for reading and game playing and plenty else with the kids. We have been reading all from literature to history and I love every minute of it. It is something I long to do with my own ten when they come along so am getting plenty of practice now with an unusually willing audience. These past few days as you can see from the pictures I have rediscovered the joys of Lego with them and have spent hours helping them indulge in their creative expertise. Pawel loves the chance to take pictures also so I have been turning him loose with the camera and so a few from the new album are his own. Below the 2nd and 3rd videos I posted links to are ones that he created this evening. They will give a brief and rapidly narrated idea of my home here. If the little fellow is a cameraman someday I'll have the early works. What a wonderful gift it is to share with children in their learning and helping them to discover their talents and interests? God's treasures never cease.

The first link is the long awaited vid of Faolan's crippled man crawl. I had wanted for the last weeks to get a glimpse of his new style for all to see. As I mentioned the other two videos are ones that Pawel captured this evening and all not suprisingly have everything to do with relationship.
