More Spring: Easter & New Life

Whoops: I thought I published this post a long time ago. And now summer's almost over, so it may seem a bit strange to be posting pictures & thoughts about Easter & springtime, but maybe "better late than never" holds true at least sometimes!

So . . . Easter here in Jordan came "late" this year (in the month of May), which meant warmer weather. In our own garden, we had our own signs of "new life," including a baby bird, baby bunnies (well, OK, we brought those in!), and a mystery egg . . . could it have been from one of our turtles?!

Spring also continued with lots more time to play--with bubbles, with friends, in the sand, in my new swing (yay!), and in many other ways.

In Arabic it's "b'aino," in Japanese it's

Peek-a-boo :)

of our turtles.
