here are a few pictures of zoe (ζωή, greek life)
.she.is.here.
zoe horvat-kavai was born at 08:15 this morning. she is 4,52 kg (10 lbs) and 55 cm (21½ inches).
.simple.
in late august of 2007 the lord orchestrated some circumstances, through which we met an extraordinary person. kenzie is a photographer (extremely talented, by the way) who loves god and is passionate about so many things. she spent 10 days in our home and to this day, the room she stayed in is often referred to as "kenzie's room". during those ten days, we bonded deeply, and when she left, it felt like we had known each other ten years!
after she left, we started finding little hidden notes of love and encouragement from her everywhere. on the wardrobe, in my box of contacts, in my recipe-collection folder, in our kitchen cabinet, i even found one in my coat pocket the following spring, and one in a book on the bookshelf last year! but today's find was the best, because it is on the bottom of a candle-holder i have dusted about a million times since then, but have never bothered to look at the bottom (after all, who looks at the bottom of a candle-holder, right?). it simply says: september 2007, i love you, andi! kenz
well, this made my day, and all i want to say is: i love you back, kenz, you are so special, i can't wait to see you again, and i wish everyone had a friend like you!
Storytelling
Nina has been playing all morning with her "Duplo" store set that she got for Christmas. A few minutes ago she lined up all the "products" (cereal boxes, juice boxes, etc), and placed the man and woman figures on top of them. Then she proceeded to tell them a story:
"God went up to the cat and scratched it!" (she also showed them how the scratching is done, scratching her own belly).
How am I supposed to keep a straight face?
Nina egész reggel a "Duplo" bolt-építő kockáival játszik, amit kedves barátainktól kapott karácsonyra. Az imént sorba rakta az összes dobozt (müzlis doboz, tejes doboz, gyümölcslés doboz,stb), majd a tetejükre állította a "bácsit" és a "nénit". Amikor mindenki a helyén volt, elkezdett nekik mesét mondani:
"Isten odament a macskához, és megvakarta!" (eközben a vakarást saját hasán szemléltette is).
Hát lehet ezen nem kuncogni?

.international.name.contest.
dear friends,
as you may know we are expecting our second child to be born some time at the beginning of june 2010. we only have a name picked out for a boy: vince (lat. vincere, meaning conquering), yet it looks like we are going to have a girl again.
we are very excited, but troubled at the same time, for we can't find a name we both like that matches the following criteria:
- it is used in hungarian, english and serbian / croatian as well.
- it is spelled similarly in all the languages mentioned above.
- we like it.
to give you a few examples: benjamin, david, alex, etc.
to trigger your imagination, here is a picture nina insisted on taking the other day :)
