- a pot roast is cheaper than a spiral notebook
- coffee filters don't really filter the tap water...if you know what I mean
- Google Translate is becoming a very good friend to me
- my kids are better at meeting Brazilians than I am
- it doesn't take language to play (hence the last point)
- hanging clothes up to dry makes them really CRUNCHY...as Jayden likes to say
- toilet paper in the US is WAY under appreciated
- making the nasal ão sound in Portuguese words might be the hardest thing I've ever done
- 13th floor breezes can be very refreshing but also very gusty
- stop signs don't really mean stop...they just mean pause briefly or you'll cause a pile up

I wish you had a "like" button! :)
Hopefully things will turn out better for you guys as you adjust to our culture :)
nice...enjoy the crunchy clothes!
ironing usually helps with the crunchiness...i'm sure you have plenty of time to iron everything.
ditto to all of it!
Your mom gave me your blogspot, so now I can keep up. What an amazing journey you're on. I pray God's blessings on your family and everyone you reach out to.
Take care,
Tisha
