Proud Moments

Another long gap between posts. Mama and papa have been busy, tired, lazy…. But of course, there are so many things happening with you.

Two weekends ago we went to the BMX jam (SOS). You are almost tall enough to ride your push bike. It’s a happy and proud moment for me, but a little selfish too. I don’t know if you will like BMX. Probably not the same way I do. But it does make me happy just to see you on the start of a bicycle journey.

You’ve also been playing outside a lot, EVERY DAY. Mama is so patient with you. You just love to play in the back yard picking up dirt and throwing it on to the patio (and we have to clean it up of course). Sometimes Mama tries to keep you a little clean, but obviously this day it was just too much. Genki 1, Mama 0. Still, we like that you can play in the dirt, and you don't always need a TV or phone or (soon) a video game. Another proud moment.

And finally, the season is just starting to change. Of course, we still have warm days, but a few days were cool, and you got to wear your favorite owl hat. You’ll be going to Japan for one month soon, maybe it will be cool there too and you can wear a lot of your cool fall clothes.
