Oh, but it's cold outside

Another cold and windy week in Mongolia, but we had one day above freezing last week...it sure doesn't take much to restore hope in Spring! The whole city was outside on that day - walking, playing, chatting in front of the market. For the most part, though, we are all still staying indoors. Zeke and Saiah LOVE to play the boardgames we brought back with us, and they like playing "animals" and reading books too. Anything to keep them from whining for more computer games! Zeke is back in school - Mongolian preschool in the mornings and English kindergarten in the afternoons. Krista and I are back in school too - each spending two mornings a week with a Mongolian tutor. Language is tough!! It's much easier to try and get by with what you already know than to continue deepening your knowledge and interaction...I suppose that would make a good spiritual principle too...
