Ellinor- we miss you!

Nevi

Ellinor lived with Will and Krista and family for one year. She was an incredible addition to our family and we are so glad we know her! Perhaps one day we can travel to Sweden to visit!

glimpse of home

Genevieve in her soccer uniform....so happy to be invited as a girl to play soccer. Girls do not really play soccer in Malaysia!

Playgrounds....there are playgrounds in Malaysia, but often it is to hot outside to play on them. Nevi is delighted to have the freedom of play back in her world. On this day, she wanted to wear her Indian Punjabi to a friends soccer game and to play!

A beautiful blend of east meets west!

Dylan's soccer game and a beautiful day~
