a note to our daughter in 2037

Hello Yuki,

The picture below is of two of your grandparents in 1997 or so. In the picture is your father's father (men call him "Joe") and your mother's mother (who goes by "Janet") on the occasion of their first visit together after your parents announced their engagement. We thought you might want to hang on to it for some time in the future when you are out in the world living your life and we come to visit you. It should help you find us at the airport.

Grandpa Joe & Grandma Janet, circa 1997
(also very likely Yuki's parents in 2037)

panicky interlude

This is not the promised "Magical Ponies" post. Apologies. Instead, this is the "You Negligent Monster" post. Because Kiddo is in a Japanese daycare, parents are asked to remove their shoes before coming in. No problem. I have a pair of loafers that I hate that I wear on pickup days so I can get in and out more quickly. Most days while I'm putting my shoes on, Yuki will run away from me and I will make noisy protestations and she will giggle and come back. Today, however, there was the running and the noisy protestations and the giggling and a splat. I guess she tripped ("running away" involves going around a corner where I can't see her) because she was crying and pulling herself up off the floor when I got to her. "No big deal" as she likes to say (she does, really, it's friggin' adorable). She had a little red line across the bridge of her nose but there was no blood. She asked for a Band Aid and I told her we'd get her one...
