We're Finished! Well, halfway...

Yesterday we had our last day of school party and got our test results back. YAHOO!!! We are finished with the first full year of language school! We have 1 year left after this summer. It's only by the grace of God that we've made it this far and that we're able to speak as much as we can speak! Praise the Lord!

And FYI, Brad and I both did very well on both the written formal Arabic test and on the spoken informal Arabic test! a-woo-hoo.

Now we start our summer. We'll spend about 3 weeks in our former city. Then we'll head back here for 2 weeks before we go on our vacation to another Middle Eastern country! We're super excited to go there and spend time with some of our best friends!

And 2 more things we're *planning* for this summer -
1. Get rid of the pacifier.
2. Potty train!

Right now, we're watching our first potty time video - Elmo's Potty Time. You see how enthralled she is with it? Wow. Did you ever know there were so many songs about going to the bathroom?

And please check out her rocking outfit! Her daddy's new Cardinals hat - backwards, of course - and her new pink water shoes! Thank you, Nana!
