Things have been moving along as though Tamirat has been here forever. His english is coming along. I have him doing Rosetta Stone English every day after school. He is mostly picking it up everywhere else. I think it is teaching him sentence structure. Rather than using simple words like "He go school" he is learning "He goes to school." He understands main words but it is the other words he needs to make a proper sentence.

Food is still difficult. We haven't been finding anything else new. We are going camping this weekend. Tamirat and Alex have off Friday so we will set up Thursday and stay until Monday. Point Beach is where we will be. His first camping trip. It will be interesting as to what he will eat! I can't do Ethiopian.

Tamirat loves riding a bike! Because we don't live in the city, all he has is our driveway, which is long. I took him out on the country road last night and did three miles. He flew! He has a small bike that we have here for our grandson so he has to pedal twice as much to get somewhere.

Soccer has been a huge hit with him. He has made friends. He has fun. He loves running.

World Soccer 2010 on Playstation is an addiction for him! He loves to sit and play. We have to ask him to get done and do other things.

And then there is Sponge Bob. After English, he watches Sponge Bob.

Things are going very well.
