Adjusting to Zambia

It has been interesting to watch my kids adjust to Zambia. When we got here, they were 4, 3, and 1. Baby Cason will have no memories before Zambia, and Caedmon and Cambree will have very few. It's been neat to watch to see how they adapt, what they notice about a new culture, and what they miss about America.

Cambree has definitely been the most fun to watch! My kids spend at least 2-3 hours every day playing with their Zambian friends. Though they speak English, they have a definite Zambian accent, which our kids have picked up on. Cambree now says "heh" for "hair", "doctuh" for doctor, and "watuh" for "water." She spends most of the day with a baby tied to her back, and if I ask her to carry anything, she automatically puts it on her head to carry.

The other day, Blu snapped this picture of her outside...just a normal American girl running with her friends, right? With a baby tied to her back....
