Belaye is obsessed/terrified of lions. He will not go into a dark room at night because of lions. Wonders when driving around town at night "are there any lions behind the houses?" Asks if lions live in our town and then always asks when we go to a new town 'if lions are from there.' I never thought of lions in Ethiopia. Hyena's yes. Lions? <br /><br />Thanks for this. Yes, on the pain. As Quinn gets older and the barbs that are sent his way are sharper I find it harder and harder to remain calm.knhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01612658633007520397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233227024562434538.post-33273675368072926862011-11-19T11:08:29.576-08:002011-11-19T11:08:29.576-08:00Word to the church.Word to the church.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09167285276763745176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233227024562434538.post-16214488684478087162011-11-19T08:55:52.804-08:002011-11-19T08:55:52.804-08:00Julie, would you pretty please write a whole book ...Julie, would you pretty please write a whole book someday?
