Peace Be With You

You went to church again today. It’s too early to tell, but so far so good. I think your mom did a great job of feeding you late enough that you shouldn’t need a meal until we get home.

Although I wonder if she checked your diaper. I guess there’s always next time to get it all right. At least were making progress and weren’t late to mass today. We say Co Lien and Chu Tuyen. Maybe we’ll see Chi Anh (Chi  Oanh is working). Sorry you didn’t get to go to Costco today….

Oanh and Anh

You’re very lucky to have so many people in your life that like you and want to play with you. Today you got to meet Oanh and remeet Anh. Your Aunty Vina’s nieces. They played with you all day today so mommy and daddy could work.

I wanted to take a picture, but didn’t want to make it awkward. So here’s a random snap from the security camera. It doesn’t capture their enthusiasm for you. I hope you are enjoying it, cause it’s daycare coming soon…www

Dr. Gavin and Mr. Vinh

I will be the first to admit that your demeanor has changed a lot since the first month. Even when you’re sick, you’ve remained relatively positive. But lately, we’ve been experiencing some crazy extremes.

We have 2 new sitters coming tomorrow. I pray they’ll take good care of you, but I also pray you’ll take good care of them. Less crying and more smiling. TIA.

Happy Vinh

Hi buddy. Who’s the happiest baby? That’s a trick question because you know it’s you!!!

Today is gonna be the first day it’ll be just Boba and Milk Tea. I’m asking around for help. Not because I can’t handle you alone, but more because I would like to shower and shave my head and take a nap. Anyhow, I hope you're good. I also hope you aren’t sick. You’ve been a real trooper, but I prefer that you’re not sick. 🙏 

2023 Blessed

I always blog about us being blessed, but it’s true and we’re constantly reminded of that. Unfortunately, I think the true understanding of how blessed will be hard to realize without experience (wisdom).

This is what your cousin brought to us. She won’t take our money. She lugged it from California to Florida and back. And she came to visit you. You didn’t get to enjoy any of this besides the toy, but it’s just a reminder of the people in your life that care about you besides mom and me.

Rainy Rain 🌧️

It’s been non stopping raining for a while now. But you probably haven’t noticed. You’ve been safe indoors and the times you go out it’s been nicer.

It’s gonna be raining for a while longer, but fortunately you don’t have any plans to go out besides church next week. Maybe you’ll get lucky and it will clear up just for you. It’s often said that God loves children…

Happy 2023

It’s your first new year. You made it. Hoping for many more new years to come. It’s too bad we don’t remember what happened to us during this point in our lives. I hope you would look back fondly and appreciate it all.

I’ve made a vow to be better in 2023. I need to be better for both you and mom. Can’t look back and know I didn’t do everything I could to give you guys the best of me. #noregrets
