Today, Jan and I went with my kids and visited my friend, Aree. She had a baby two weeks after I had Adele. Mario is a big boy but oh, so cute! He was a whopper, especially for Thai babies (4.2 kilos; the same as Calvin). PJ remarked time and time again how cute he is and he and Adele enjoyed checking each other out.
Aree and her mother were so hospitable, as all Thais are. She ordered Jan and I somtam (a yummy papaya salad) and fried chicken.
I met Aree nearly two years ago on the family English retreat to Cha'am Beach. She lives a ways from us so I don't get to see her often. Please pray that that would change. =)
In this picture of Adele and Mario in his crib, Adele was fascinated with the ceiling fan. They held hands at one point in the crib...it was so cute!
Here's Jan with Mario, PJ and Calvin. I asked Jan to go along to help me with my kids...it was nice to have her there.
And here's Khun Yaay (Grandmother in Thai) with our Adele. This woman has six living children and two have already died. She was so grandmotherly to all of us.

I'm glad you still get to see her occassionally. It is neat how you've been able to keep up the friendship in spite of her not being around much.
