After her two month visit in Egypt, my (or "our") sister Dana left for Canada late last night. It seems impossible that her time with us is already up! We feel like she just got here - which is a compliment to Dana because she was fun company to have!
Because of Dana, we were able to enjoy delicious KRAFT peanut butter, explore new parts of Egypt, and win first prize at a "Guess The Theme" party. Because of Dana, we were able to read WESTERN magazines, learn more about the "Nutella" craze, and talk "teacher/supply teacher" about the students that drive us nuts! Because of Dana, we know how to use REAL garlic, are inspired to be better cooks, and have a new appreciation for a spice termed "safron". Because of Dana, we have a "reliable" internet connection in the kitchen, greater sympathy for anyone who suffers from food poisoning, and a bizarre alertness for anything that is made of, has touched, or was near a MANGO. Because of Dana, we understand the worrying that our parents have endured, the benefits of a top-notch swiss army knife, and the hassles of finding summer employment at home. Because of Dana, we have one less suitcase of sheets, Kilimanjaro gear, school resources, and gifts to worry about!
Thank you for your visit Dana! The good news is that we don't have to miss you for too long! xo
