brief update
Dad and I made it to Sarajevo ok. PTL all of our bags arrived safely after a flight to London, Munich, then Sarajevo. I am very sick, however, so keep that in your prayers. We came down with a horrible cold as a family just before I left. I had to leave Janet with two very sick little boys. Grandma is there helping out though. I'll update more later. Dad says that he's never seen a city like this one. He compares it a little to Monterrey, Mexico if you've ever been.
Meet Jack Elijah Taylor
Jack Taylor and his mom Lauren came to visit us last week. He's a great kid as you can see. He looks a lot like his daddy, especially when he squints. Jack's coming to Bosnia with us and boy is Simeon excited. We had such a great time during their visit. We went to a pub and heard live Irish music, visited a coffe shop built around a real roaster, sang a lot of songs, cried and told stories about Nathan (Jack's dad), and drove through one of Chicago's worst blizzards in a decade for 2 hours to get Ethiopian food. Oh yeah, and did I mention that there are now 4 Mezger/Taylor boys, soon to be 5? Aunt Mandi is having another boy! We'd better live in a community together to keep the tradition going.
