Balae,

Bambino has been with us for 2 weeks. The first 2 days he was uncomfortable due to fever, lack of sleep during the flight and the hot, humid climate of March. But when monday arrived his spirits came to the fore and everything turned upside down.

He inspected the rooms of the house and we are glad he seemed to like them. At the mall he went up and down the escalators, ran around and greeted every kid he could find, chased the storyland train, sang at cd bars, danced at the beat of store music. He was like a tornado, always on the move and tireless. This was the only time that I perspired inside a cold mall. And everywhere we go he was fascinated by cars, trucks, motorcycles and tricycles. He talked to us in his own style which we instantly understood.

This boy is a little wonder. Nico and Neri will describe to you with pictures and videos the amazing things he demonstrated to us.

But what gladden us is the natural intelligence he possesses. What he sees once, he remembers.

When he sees you, he'll tell you all about his Philippine adventure.

He likes mangoes too.

Ben and Susan

(Traslation: Balae is the word used to refer to parents of the daughter- or son-in-law)
