We are back at the summer house and very happy to be here. The kids are loving being able to play outside all they want. Nehir found his bike almost right away and started biking around the paths immediately. Taylan spent a day being mighty jealous of the neighbor boys trike until the little girl we gave Nehir's old trike to came by and since she is too big for it now, she said we could use it again. Neither the neighbor's kid or Taylan can quite peddal by themselves, but they both love to try and, even better, to get pushed around on the trikes.
Nehir has lots of neighborhood kids to play with and he seems to have outgrown his tendency to freak out when other people play with his stuff. So far the kids like to hang out on our porch, probably because we have lots of toys.
The summer house looks great. The trees are bigger although some didn't produce as much fruit and the peach tree died because there was not much rain this spring and no one was around to water. We have been watering everything and we will replace the peach tree. The jasmine bush is huge but there are no flowers yet, again, probably because of the lack of water, but now that is is getting water İ am looking forward to the fragrant smell wafting accross our porch.
İ can't post photos in this entry because İ am at an internet cafe but İ think next time İ can bring my laptop and connect that way.
