The boys’ ability to communicate in English continues to grow at an incredible pace.  We are able to tackle subjects that we did not imagine we would be addressing so soon.  Tonight at dinner we started talking about the boys’ names and I really don’t recall how the conversation moved on to the topic, but along the way we asked them each what names (Ethiopian or American) they would like us to use at home.  We had assumed they would prefer the names they had used all their lives, but they each asked us to call them by their American names.  So from now on, we will refer to the oldest as Daniel and the youngest as David.  Except when we forget!
