The name of "The Stone Rabbit" comes from a little stone rabbit we were given in Senegal. We had recently arrived with our 10 week old son to our new home and decided to take a walk along the beach road near our house. We came upon a man at a little stand at the side of the road selling small stone statues. He gave us this little stone rabbit as a welcome gift to our baby boy to his country. It has seen better days, but still travels with us to each new place.

It's the small things
Today, I heard from our new landlord at our new posting. He just wrote to tell me that he has a dog door for his dog that he can leave set-up for our girl. I had noticed in pictures of the house that the door to the backyard was a glass door, but not sliding door. It didn't seem possible to set-up a dog door for Sophie. So, I've been worrying how Sophie might adjust to life without a dog door and here our new landlord already has one set-up for her. It's a small thing, yet a big thing. It made me happy.
