Three Peas in a Pod
Our crates just arrived (taken by pickup truck across China, through Chinese customs, carried by ship, through Turkish customs, and put onto a moving truck here) with all of our personal items from China. As the movers were unloading all of the boxes from the truck into our apartment, the kids all lined up at the boys' bedroom door and watched as the men brought boxes into our home. They were too cute, all laying in a row-- I just had to snap a few pictures; that top one is a silly, completely over-the-top picture, and here's a cute one of all of them:
Computer time for Ethan (math games, phonics, etc., but WAY more amazing than anything any of us had as kids) has now become an "event" that all three kids want to watch, even if they're not the ones "doing" it. They will just sit and watch, so engrossed in everything he does.
A couple days ago, Ethan was asking about computers when we were kids. We each told him about when our families first got computers (around early junior high age) and how we didn't have computers, when we were his age. He got a confused look on his face, and asked, incredulously, "Well, then HOW did you do e-mail?"

First of all, the three peas in a pod picture is absolutely darling of all of them! They are such angels! Then, the one where Ethan is on the computer and they are watching so intently is also very precious. And, the comment Ethan made about you not having computers was very funny. He can't even imagine that, can he?! I laughed to myself thinking about our TI computer! ha! We thought that was really something special! ha! (It was a lot of fun.)
Precious! It has been so good to "catch up" via your blog. I love the slice of Connell life you give. Love, the Suels
