Opa's visit

We have so enjoyed this past month of March with Stefan's father here visiting. The boys loved getting to know their "Opa" from Germany. They all got in a morning routine of drinking coffee (well, Daddy and Opa had coffee, the boys got their juice) on the front porch.


Opa helped out around the house by feeding Christian (which, in this household is actually quite a chore!) :)

We made a trip to the Savane beach with some friends.

Stefan, Opa, and Cohen took a walk on the beach.

Stefan and his father also shared their birthday together at the end of March--we counted it up and this was only the 8th time in Stefan's 36 years that he has actually been with his father on their birthdays! It was particularly special to share it in Mozambique together!

Thanks for posting! Bobby also shared the same birthday with his grandfather.

Cohen looks like he was having more fun with garlic than I do with my press. I shall think of him the next time I pull it out. Funny story, the last time I got out the garlic I realized I had not brought the press from the other kitchen yet. But I had bought some cute kitchen items for Libby to use in the kitchen for her birthday (which is not until June) but were stashed in the closet. The garlic press looks like a parrot, the veggie peeler looks like a monkey, etc. I opened and used them before her birthday but she still doesn't know!

I have just posted word entries lately so I will try to post some cute pictures soon. Ya'll take care, K

I'm, so glad you could celebrate your birthday this year with Dad, Stefan. You know I would have loved to have been there too, but just knowing you were together made it alright with me. It IS nice to have Dad back home now though!
Love, Mom
