Last night we took a walk over to see Jeremy's office. On the way, Miriam suddenly looked up at me and asked, "Mama, how do you say نحلة in Arabic?"
So maybe she'll be OK with this whole Arabic thing after all.
(For those of you who don't speak Arabic, "نحلة" is Arabic for "bee." Miriam learned it in Arabic first last summer, which explains why her question doesn't really make sense.)
