oh my! it's already becoming end of february???? i gotta fill my quota for this month (not that anyone cares. . . .) so here's my latest list of discovery.
the picture is totally irrelevant - mustache is just "in" in our household right now.
you can tell when you and your kids are becoming european/polish when. . . .
1. your children demand cucumber, baguette and olive oil for snacks.
2. you start to prepare coins to use the restroom
3. you start to think walking with a baby in stroller in freezing weather is a good idea.
4. ordering french fries instead of rice with chinese food becomes normal.
5. when your bread doesn't go moldy in 3 days, you wonder what is going on. (they don't use preservatives here!)
6. you declare charmin toilet paper to be the softest thing on earth and save it only to blow your children's nose.
7. you think lukewarm coke in restaurants is acceptable. what's ice?
8. you automatically think that 11.02.08 means february 11th instead of november.
9. you think 10% tip is MORE than enough for dinners
10. having no leg room in the bathroom doesn't bother you anymore.
many are bathroom or food related, i realized - those are the biggest adjustment issues, right???

what an adventure and your kids seem so able to adapt....i think it is great that you are able to widen their experience...the MK's at our church are most open-minded!
the small things that we take for granted are most appreciated when they are gone. it was good talking to you polish people. 8)
