Favorite book

Joshua's favorite "book" right now is his Exotic Car Buyer's Guide.  At least he is learning how to spell a lot of foreign words like big words like Koenigsegg, Bugatti, Hennessey, and Lamborhini.  And how to compare big numbers, like $2,300,000 (cost of a Bugatti) vs. $225,000 (Ferrari).

RISE student of the month

At Joshua's school, students are selected each month for their "respectful conduct".  RISE stands for "Respect Individuals, Self, and Environment".  Joshua was a RISE student of the month for his school.  So proud of you, Joshua!  He is living up to the meaning of his Chinese name, "Jiamin" = "excellent citizen".

First football game

It was super fun taking the boys to their first Harvard Game.  They loved the action, the random balloons floating into the air, the chips/hot chocolate/popcorn, the high scoring offense (go Harvard), the exciting plays on offense and defense, the energy in the crowd, the stadium music and instant replays.  In short, they loved everything I love about fall college football. I hope to be able to take them to many games from now on.  :)
