OUT OF THE MOUTH OF BABES

Mimi: Dad, you have monies.
Dad: Yes?
Mimi: You need to share with mama. Don't take her money.

Sorry there is no picture today. Mama is feeling a bit under the weather. Allergy season is here and is hitting mama real hard. Mama's head feels as if it is going to explode. She did manage to take Mimi to and from school. Mimi learned a new song today and was singing all the way home. It goes like this: SHA NA NA, NA,-SHA, NA, NA,NA-HEY, HEY, GOOD-BYE.

OBON FESTIVAL

This year with everything that was happening, moving, packing and unpacking and getting settled in, mama completely forgot about the Obon Festival in downtown Seattle. I guess it is better late than never though.

PRINCESS MIMI AND ERIN

This past Sunday while we were out at our Buddhist meeting Mimi was quite upset. She cried and cried for almost 45 minutes straight. Mama could not for the life of her figure out what was wrong. Finally mama found out. Somehow Mimi got it into her head that she would not be able to play with her friend Erin. Mimi said " I don't want to go to your house!!! I want to go to Erin's!" Mama said "first we have to call and see if she is at home". Mimi replied "She is!!!" Mama then told Mimi that we first have to go home, have lunch, take a nap, then call Janet (Erin's mom). If Janet says ok then you can play with Erin. Only then did Mimi calm down.

When we got home, we had lunch and FELL ASLEEP. By the time we woke up, it was too late.
Mimi said "I forgot to call Erin". She was a little upset again, so mama took her outside to star gaze and sing songs. As it turns out, Janet said yesterday that they were not home Sunday so therefore everything worked out.

Yesterday was quite warm outside so mama brought out the swimming pool for the girls. Mimi and Erin had quite a lot of fun playing with the Disney princesses. After about a hour they came in to watch none other than Beauty and the Beast.
