Hi Loved Ones! It's been a hectic time around here...so much is going on and it's been hard to find time to blog. But I'm back tonight and I wanted to update you on something really fun that I have started doing with Daniel: Gymnastics! A few weeks ago when Grandpa Boon was visiting, we went to a gymnastics hall not far from our home and we just fell in love with it! For only $5, I can take Daniel to enjoy a proper gymnastics facility for a whole hour. He loves all the different things he can do (each time we go they have different things set up) but his favorites are: running down a long trampoline and sliding into a a pool of foam cubes (I'm sure there is a proper name, I just don't know what it is! :-)). Wednesday is the best day for us to go, so I have rearranged my work schedule so that can take Daniel. He just loves it and it's so worth it! We've been there now 3 times and each time we go, Daniel gets more and more confident. It's such great exercise for him too (and for me, keeping up with him!) and we usually get a great nap out of it! :-)
Check out some photos and video I took of him last week. At the end of the video, you will see how courageous he is!

How wonderful to see Daniel running around! He has lots of energy and I think will be quite sporty like his parents and auntie who loved all sports too! Thanks again Aninha for all the updates. The cherry bloosoms are beautiful and the new camera does capture more detail so well worth the investment. We are getting cherry blossoms too and they are lighting up our streets in the ghetto as Tio Juju likes to call East London! I'll try to take some pictures and send them to you guys. Lots of love, Tia Fafa.
