Today we measured you: 5 foot 5 and 3/4"...almost 5'6"!! Hi, it's your mom again, who forgets all the time to write a bit here about your life. At this point, though, you are getting old enough to remember most of what we do. Even so, I still want to leave some notes here for you, as I have from the beginning of your life :)
Part of why I haven't written for a while is that I went to France (and la Réunion) for 7 1/2 weeks recently. Thus, I was not here to observe anything. Now that I am back, am hoping to remember to write some quick updates (at least) more often.
The biggest news (besides you being taller than me, ugh!) is that you passed your black belt test in karate (the day after I got back from my trip, in fact)! I am so super proud of you, as is everyone else in the family. Next week, Nana is coming to visit so she can attend the ceremony. Grandma Judy will come, too. Kevin wanted to come, but he must stay with Pa-pa to take care of him.
