Happy Ridvan!

Happy Ridvan! There are lots of beautiful flowers blooming in our balcony at this spring time. Here are some photos taken yesterday...



























and these ones were taken today in our neighborhood...

Another gathering with Tricia

We had another mom's gathering with Tricia held yesterday and the topic was "impact of TV on young children". Our friend May who is expecting her first baby also joined us.















L-F: Tricia, Sieni-Tara, Canan-Elfida, May, Parvaneh-Melody, Katharine-Jasmine-Layla, Menchie-Enna-Marie, Selvi-Lillian (sitting). Not in the photo who also came were Negeen, Kami and their children.

new playground

We have a new playground in our neighborhood, yay! The old one has been removed several months ago and we were wondering if they will build a new one, which they did. Selvi and I brought Enna-Marie and Lillian for the first time last Sunday and they truly enjoyed it.





nice double slide that the two can slide together
