Two of my favorite people in Singapore are Rassmus and Emile, young Danish sons of our friends Jeppe and Mette, a coworker and his wife. Matt and I babysat them one evening and almost broke Emile's front tooth....well, we didn't, but let's say there was a household accident resulting in a really fat lip and a bruised gum. Amazingly, the Parents weren't hysterical, and actually still talk to us. This weekend we had a company cookout on the rooftop, and fortunately, there was no ill will from the boys. They are a lot of fun to play with, and fantastic future UN representatives. They are multilingual, and in 7 years of their lives together have been in 10 countries. Pretty amazing. But then again, they're European, so that is like describing a 7 year old in the states as having visited 10 states. Though even still I bet there aren't that many kids who can boast likewise. Now I must post Casey and Kyle...
