My 2 best friends in Ecuador are Emerita and Juanita. Juanita's sister Eufemia is married to an ex-Peace Corps Volunteer Ernest. They work in international development work, and have adopted a beautiful little girl from Ethiopia named Saba. They recently bought a house in Charlotte, NC and also accepted a new contract in the Middle East. In order to see them and their new place before they left, the kids and I headed up to Charlotte to spend the day with them.
Isabella and Saba are only about 6 weeks apart in age. No, we didn't coordinate the purple shirts. :-)
Isabella was quite bossy and pushy that day- I guess skills she's learned to fend off her older (and pushier) brother. Here Saba has one of Bella's shoes and all looks well- until about a minute later when she started trying to push her over to get it back! I totally had to use the "she's not always like that" line that we mothers pull out of the hat when necessary!
