Those of you who read this blog in 2008 may remember a posting about our little neighbor girl. I never understood what she was saying when I asked her name, and neither did John. I dubbed her "Torpedo" because when she saw us coming out of our house she flew toward us like a torpedo and didn't stop until she slammed into us and hugged us around the legs. If we forgot something and had to go back to the house, even just for 2 minutes, we got another hug when she saw us again. I came to look forward to these hugs and to love this little girl.Today (June 2009) I took a stroll down the old street looking for our little neighbor. She seemed a bit shy at first, but when I smiled and waved at her she shot out of her yard just like she used to. Above is a picture of my little friend in February 2008; below is the picture I took of her and her brother today. She's as cute as ever.

She is adorable (but I miss her hair). I am relieved that she is still there and still friendly.

I also wondered about your young friend's "extreme" haircut... do you know why that change happened? And are you succeeding in catching up with all the people you hoped to see on this trip?
