Tiny Tulip Ballerina Kira

Kira started taking ballet classes for little girls. I so enjoy watching her there and at home when she puts on ballerina outfit.

Aaron's 1st Week at Kindergarten

 Aaron was very excited to start school for big kids. On the first day the whole family walked him to his new classroom and kissed him good-bye. And of course, we could not wait until he was done to tell us all about his first day experience. When asked about his teacher, Mrs. Bowers, he said: "She's good but pretty strict".
In the middle of the last week I received their class schedule. It had "Fun Friday" marked on each Friday of the month. When Aaron came home from school on Friday I asked him if they did anything special that day and he said no, it was a usual day. Then he asked me: "Why does it say Fun Friday if we did not do anything fun?" I said: "Well, on Monday when you go back to school you can ask your teacher why it was called Fun Friday and you did not do anything fun." He thought for a second and said: "No, I am not going to ask like that. What if the teacher tried hard to make it fun but it wasn't. She will be hurt if I ask her this way. I will just ask: "Why is it called "Fun Friday"?

Aaron, 5, riding his bike!

It was so exciting to see Aaron holding his balance and pedaling his bike for the first time today. We have not practiced for a couple of weeks but he was especially motivated and determined to do it today. I told him if he learned to ride his bike today we could make a surprise for papa and send him a video. So he pressed on and did it!

As we went for a bike ride/walk we met Aaron's favorite playmate, Michael, who as of August 4 is no longer our neighbor.  But I was glad he and his parents were there to see Aaron riding his bike for the first time and having their phone camera to videotape this milestone for me.
