Hoshim Dewi - Love thy Neighbor

"Hoshim Dewi" means, "I love you!" in Sorani (local dialect of Kurdish). The girls in this photo live in the house directly opposite of S. She always gets the windows overlooking the houses in back (whereas I get to look at the driveway into NC).
Anyway, the children on both sides love to yell at us whenever they see us, "Hello! What's your name? I love you!"
I wish the wall between us wasn't so high or I'd invite them to play badminton (or goodminton as H calls it) the next time 6-year-old H and I play in between the houses.
