Girl Power



Hi Sidra,

Here I am, outnumbered 5 to 1 by girls, 6 to 1 if you include the new baby to come. But you are enjoying the company of your cousins from Brookline. Mia, Grace and their mother Dina are here for the week. Today we went to a children's museum in Salem. We had planned to take our guests hiking on Mt. Hood but the weather was not good for that.

You had a great time playing at the museum, going down the slide, making bubbles, looking at magnets, playing in the blacklight rooms, dressing up, playing market, and also riding the carousel.

Tonight when we got home you were showing off with your bike, in just your underwear.

Last night you were pretty wired after having the visitors here for the first day and had trouble getting to sleep. You and I were kicked out of mom's bed and had to sleep in the other room. You asked me to sing songs to help you go to sleep and then asked me to stop after singing about 3 songs.

We have more fun stuff planned while your cousins are here, tomorrow we will visit the Japanese gardens and probably the zoo. There is a plan for all you girls to sleep in a tent at Uncle Aaron's house in a couple days, but we'll see how that turns out.

More soon,
Love, aba

Grandpa and Grandma enjoy seeing all of your activities. We have missed you this summer and we feel like we really seeing you. Sorry about the lip.
