Touch-down in Cairo in July

We’ve been home for less than a week, yet Sweden already seems so far away. The boys say they miss our family, but it’s obvious they’re also happy to be home. We spent the first couple of days catching up on sleep and spending time with Courtney. I did a lot of laundry, and tried to get the house straightened out. School-wise we’ve been finishing off loose ends; August has a few pages left here and there, and we still need to finish our history projects. We’ve gone to the pool in the late mornings, because even though we have the AC running in the house, it still feels too hot to work too hard. We’ve been catching up with the few friends that are left in Cairo, and been here for the new family that is trying to get settled in. There are also a lot of administrative things we've had to deal with, and other little things here and there. Courtney is still teaching every day; I don’t envy him having to go in every day, but the summer classes have gone well, and this is the last week. Next week we leave for Boston!

Lovely Lady of La Leche, most loving mother of the Child Jesus, and my mother, listen to my humble prayer. Your motherly heart knows my every wish, my every need. To you only, His spotless Virgin Mother, has your Divine Son given to understand the sentiments which fill my soul. Yours was the sacred privilege of being the Mother of the Savior. Intercede with him now, my loving Mother, that, in accordance with His will, I may become the mother of other children of our heavenly Father. This I ask, O Lady of La Leche, in the Name of your Divine Son, My Lord and Redeemer. Amen.
