My friend Sobita holding her families' new puppy, Bhotu (which means muscular or strong). Sobita is a teacher in a "lower secondary" school (which means that her students are children in grades 5–8). Sobita is quick to a smile and a laugh, and she and her husband have three lovely children with the same great quality.

Every time I try to showcase my Nepali dance moves to Sobita's family, this is the kind of response I get.
