Today was amazing. It was just one of those days. The warm (for february) sunny weather helped it along. Saya slept in so I had some time by myself before she woke up. While she was at school I got to spend time with Junji in his studio. I am going to decorate these small [...]

My little one is sick with a cough, runny nose, and slight fever. We haven’t left the house in two days. Luckily we stocked up on library books and DVDs over the weekend. She may or may not go to school tomorrow. I think her room is so cozy with her Namoo quilt and Hillery [...]

Junji has been spoiling us with juice almost every day for the past month. It is usually carrot, orange, and apple and sometimes he adds other stuff like ginger, celery, or spinach. It is so delicious, and look at that color! I love it. I hope he keeps it up. We had been borrowing the [...]

Man, it feels so good to be home. We moved into our house a few days before Thanksgiving. We took down wallpaper, painted, replaced the kitchen countertop and backsplash.

We are back from our trip to Colorado. During long hours in the car, marathon shopping at IKEA, and hiking in Colorado, Saya was a champ through it all. On our third day of driving, somewhere in Nebraska, she looked out of her window and said, “Wow, I never knew the world was so big.” [...]

The Christmas season can be fun, busy, sometimes stressful. We love going to my grandparents’ house in the mountains after Christmas where there is a big fireplace, and no cable, and no internet. The weather was gorgeous, even though it was way too warm for the end of December. I loved spending time with my [...]
