It’s the end of March and the weather feels summerish. Kid.01 and Best Friend.01 have no school today because the “abiler” (big kids) have exams, so you spend the morning at home overseeing homework and legos, making chicken soup and lemon bars. Lunch hour you go to Carrefour for t.p., fresh strawberries, etc., then deliver your bars 'n berries to your colleagues and friends. And the neighborhood kids get together at dusk, your kids jabbering away with them in Turkish. And you don’t have the heart to bring them in, because it reminds you of playing outside when you were young, which your kids can’t do much in the States, yelling and running in the street with sticks. Freedom!
