Short Pause in Kaz

Rosa enjoyed her first Easter in the U.S. She had fun coloring Easter eggs and getting a basket and a new Easter dress for church. I am posting a picture of Megan and her in their new dresses.
All of the children enjoyed the trip to Disneyland. Rosa seems to take after her dad and doesn't like the stomach-turning rides. While her mom and brothers and sister were free falling down an elevator on the Tower of Terror, she was riding the kiddie rides with her dad.

Rosa enjoyed flying in an airplane again. In fact, all of the kids enjoyed that part of the trip. The hotel was nice. It's too bad we never had time for swimming.

Speaking of swimming, Rosa and Megan are now signed up for swimming lessons once school gets out near the end of this month. We don't think Rosa has ever been in a pool. We probably need to take her to one before her lessons start just to see if we're going to have to deal with some fear issues.

It seems like both girls are now losing a lot of teeth. Rosa has found that there is money to made in losing teeth and seems to show us a new loose tooth every week. For so long, Megan was not losing any teeth and now it seems like they are all ready to come out at once.

Both girls were enrolled in a junior drill team dance class and they performed for their parents this last week. I am attaching a picture of Megan and Rosa following the performance. Both girls did really well.

Tomorrow marks five months of Rosa living with us in the U.S. She has come a long ways since her arrival here. We are hapopy to see her continued progress in school. She is reading very well and her language skills are improving all of the time. We hope to get her caught up in math during the summer.
