Home Sweet Home
Mission accomplished! We made it to our country in one piece. Yes, Sahara's taking a flying leap off of the airplane stairs expecting me to catch her mid-air could have ended badly. Elisa's leaving her purse and all our passports on the plane, only to find it missing after we cleared security in Vienna could have ended badly. Thankfully though, all flying children were safely caught, missing passports found, and even all the luggage arrived on time. We are very glad to have made it here to Sarajevo.
We have just been here for three weeks, but there is already so much that makes Sarajevo feel like home-sweet-home. We have a wonderful place to live, located in a great part of the city. Sahara has a great preschool to go to and is very excited to be starting this week. Tim and Elisa have found a language teacher. Thus begins our full-time job for the next year; language study. We couldn't be more excited to start, as we have quickly discovered that to live life fully here, we need to speak the language.
Side note, the snow is falling heavily outside our window, and even though it's only October, there is one little girl in this home-sweet-home who is beside herself with excitement.
So thankful for all these things which make this new place home-sweet-home.
