God 🙏

Everyone has their own relationship and reasons with God. My or your mom’s relationship shouldn’t impact your own with God. I hope you have a great relationship with God for you. I hope that it helps to guide you on the “right” path in life. 🙏 


That being said, I know you don’t like church, but you need to go until you’re an adult and can make your own decisions. Maybe you’ll be like me and actually go on your own when you get to decide…sorry your gift is late.

Willow Pond Circle

We’re headed home. Well, we made it home.


Good luck adjusting back to regular life. That’s always the issue. Ironic that you want to be home, but then you expect it to be a staycation. Please adjust quickly. It’ll likely be me and you a lot since mommy will be dealing with her own stuff. Pray for all of us 🙏.

Learning Vietnamese

Maybe we should have you watch YouTube in Vietnamese? It could have the same impact that watching Numberblocks did?


I hope you enjoyed your time with your family in Viet Nam. I’m not sure mommy wants to go back anytime soon. That’s why it’s really important that you learn to enjoy the present. No one knows what the future holds and hanging onto the past keeps you in the past…

Catching Up

Less than a week behind unless we’re counting Viet Nam time… I forget why you’re so mad, but you shouldn’t be. We need to try to find a way to help you better process your feelings. Emotional intelligence is going to be essential to your success as a human…


Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed seeing poop. I’m sorry it was so hot and we didn’t have much time to spend at the Zoo. I think Aunty Anna wanted to take you at home, but it’s raining…

Good Morning and Goodbye

To Salinda and Phu Quoc…Hello again to Saigon aka Ho Chi Minh City.

It’s gonna be busy again. I know you want to to go home (home) and you’ll be there in just a few days. Though it’ll be a little longer cause we’re going back in time 🤯.

Final Night in Phu Quoc

Mommy’s pretty sad. There’s so much we didn’t get to do, but it’s okay because we did our best to try to do what you wanted to do, which was nothing 😂.


It looks like you finally had some fun at the beach. Hope you enjoyed it because I don’t know when we’ll be at the beach again and it won’t be warm in America until probably your 4th birthday…

Case of the Mondays

Phu Quoc edition. Boy did you not like fireworks. I’m glad it was over earlier than anticipated. What a great family photo we got beforehand though. 


Anyhow, I know you want to go home. At least that’s what you’re saying. This is our last Monday here. Enjoy! Also this is Phu Quoc, not Rome 😂.
