Been sleeping..

I have been sleeping. Some how I have not been able to stay up late or work on the computer long hours at night for this last month. I think this has been the longest since I did not post to my blog. For couple of weekends we were out of town. One of them we went camping and had a great time but took a lot of energy as this was our first camping here in Israel so it took time to get set up and recover. We did that the week before the kids’ exams. This week is the first week of exams. To tell you the truth exams here are something else. We eat, drink and sleep studying for the last week. And on top of all that we all had some kind of stomach virus. As one by one we were feeling sick. Today is the first day I have been able to wake up early not feeling like my body is broken.

Also the girls will be performing in Sounds of the World. I think last year around this time I posted about it where the staff from the Baha’i World Center had an evening to show their amazing musical and art talent. Yasmeen and Nadia will be in an Indian dance. They have been practicing twice a week for couple of hours. They been really working hard as this is something they have never done before and not familiar with the moves. Some how the levels of activities just keep increasing here; so much to do and so little time. No complains that is for sure, just trying to explain to you how our days pass.

I also have done a lot of cleaning in the house we are not 100% set, one more room to organize but much better than we were few months ago. We spent couple of days just to organize the girls’ room. I will update you with new pictures. It is really amazing how much the girls have grown. I can see it especially in there clothes. As most of their clothes are getting small all the sudden. Speaking of the girls changing; they are also both doing some work on their teeth. Yasmeen have some sort of plastic retainer on both the top and bottom of her mouth and Nadia have this metal retainer on the roof of her mouth to expand her upper jaw. They both have been so amazing with the way they are handling all the new changes.

Ok, I better get going and make their breakfast and get their lunch ready. Sorry for the delay in the update and I will soon update you with all the pictures of the cool things we been doing. For those who are sleeping; hope you are having a wonderful sleep and sweet dreams and for those who are waking up to start your day wish you a bright day full of joy.
