When I told Hazel we we’re going on a hard, outdoor adventure today she asked,"like exercise like skiing?" Me: yeah, sort of. Her: Does that mean I can have a donut? Lol. Yup. It does.

Hazel really likes the set! Thank you.

1st day of Mandarin Preschool for Margot. 1st day of first grade for Hazel

Took the afternoon off today, leaving the store in the capable hands of staff. The goal was to visit the Adventure Playground in Orange county with Hazel and Margot. I’d seen several people post pictures of water, rafts, building, mud slides, etc etc. Turns out

We put it to good use today making cinnamon rolls!

Margot and I are discussing her wish to be older than Hazel. She thinks it’s not fair Hazel always gets to be older. It’s not going well.

Margot has a wonderful smile when she’s happy. The way to see it to make a joke or do something silly make her laugh. The way NOT to see it is to say "Smile!" or "Cheese!" lol

Kim’s gone on fun/work travel. I’m trying to tie up the loose ends for the grand opening, and Hazel has no summer program this week, so everything has been a little insane. But the girls and I are making the most of it and enjoying

I bought Hazel a 291 page chapter book yesterday, she hadn’t really tried reading a chapter book but I thought she was ready. She finished the entire book in under 24 hours, barely put it down. I even quizzed her on parts because I was
