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.
