Ulaanbaatar, MongoliaFriday, February 12, 2010
Today, just in time for the 4-day holiday weekend (Mongolian New Year), Grandma's package arrived. A has her new Thomas the Tank Engine alphabet train puzzle and her new Thomas placemat. And blocks that stack AND go on a string. Frank has a new black vest, and I have some lovely gold earrings. And my tax papers, too. Something to keep us all busy during long winter days at home.
This is the 3rd package from home in the past few weeks. Each package was stuffed with food items (spices! tortillas! chocolate! tea!), toys & books for A, clothes & music for Frank, and earrings for me.
Thanks to Uncle R & Aunt B, C, K & O, and Grandma & Grandpa for so much love (and Thomas) in a box!
