Today is a public holiday, and even though the day is exactly the same for Emily, Mrs H and I, this morning Ms Lanh left after her shift to go and 'play' and I think I have absorbed some of her 'holiday' feel! I totally feel like I'm on holidays!! We baked bread, walked outside in the SUNSHINE (we haven't seen any of THAT here for a while!) by the pool, and Emily honed her watermelon-spearing skills at lunch -- she's getting quite deft with a fork now. Mrs Hien told us this week that there's been some baby stealing going on -- people stealing babies from poorer homes and selling them over the border! She was very nervous because a couple had come to her own house while she was here with us (and Ms Lanh was babysitting her son), claiming to be friends of the extended family and asking many questions about Mrs Hien's baby. It turns out this suspicious couple were complete strangers to the family. The incident left Mrs Hien rather disturbed!
