A few days ago we realized we could no longer wrap our thumb and index finger around Newey’s thighs. And yesterday he went to a pool for the very first time. He loved it.

Max got two new DogMan books and read them without me in a car ride with Karolina. I am both proud and sad: proud that he can do it and is so excited to read, but sad that he doesn’t need me to read with him anymore. He is also practicing drawing DogMan and CatKid in his sketch book. He is following the instructions and doing surprisingly well.
