Muffins & Kids

The street we live on is filled with families.  So, our family decided to make muffins to take to some of the families and get to know them a bit.  Few of them go to church, so we thought this was a good way to introduce ourselves and open the door for a relationship. 
To our left is a family that works at the mission that has a daughter near Naiyah's age.  Below our house lives a lady that has a daughter also our daughter's age.  But, then mostly everyone else on the street has boys and do not attend the church!  So we can really relate with the boys!  I am not sure how the muffins went over with them, but we had lots to talk about with boys.  Most of them had one & stopped as boys can be a bit of a handful in the early years...we understood.  But, also here it is a lot more expensive the more kids you have, as it is anywhere.  So, most just have 1 or 2.  We are probably an oddity:) 
We ecspecially enjoyed meeting the Asian family down the street, they too are from a different culture and fairily new to St. Vincent.  But, also they have a 5 month old son who is way chunkier than Pax.  Which here is unheard of as every baby is tiny, so we enjoyed meeting them too.
