Somehow, September has slipped by... We got to Kai's birthday party including green frosting and trampolines. Milo's learned to write all the letters through E, Elephant. We lost a plane in a tree, we had a special before-school birthday breakfast with Gran'mama (and Gran'papa, too!). One karate class, two stone lions by the Library, three Saturday "breakfast parties" with Mommy, four "light sabers", five "good boy" stickers from school, six sunflowers for Papa, seven watercolor paintings, eight viewings of Star Wars, nine insistent attempts at hot chocolate (two successful), and ten different Jedi warrior moves...

And one Blue, age "two and three quarters" chasing leaves, hopping over sidewalk cracks, riding his skate board "so fast" and counting down the days to Halloween...
