How do I know we're raising a city girl?
-when the only wildlife she sees are pigeons
-when she sleeps through revving motorcycles and fights right outside her window
-when she cheerfully rides in buses, trains, and taxis, but doesn't like CARS
-when she has to go to a park to see grass
-when most of the plants she sees are in pots
-when she sees and loves people of all races
-when she gets to try many different types of food (Indian is her favorite--she loves to dip all the breads in the sauces.)
-when she has learned to wait (in lines, for buses, for service from slow waiters...)
There are some disadvantages. Sometimes I long for a pet and wide open spaces. (I watch the movie "The Horse Whisperer" just for the scenery!) But city life has its advantages. I've learned a lot here and I'm sure Ana will too.

My girls once asking if we were city folks or country folks. I said, " Can you walk to a taxi stand from our house? you are city girls!"
That's so fun, though, that her favorite is Indian food!
Maybe we'll be able to take you out to Stone Mountain while you're here-- it's not too far from Decatur and plenty of wide open spaces!
