Proud Moments 2025

The most proud: 

Despite the usual squabbling and teasing among the siblings, they remain a strong bond to each other. 

en came back to the podium for his long jump event (3rd place) in spring.

Little i picked up her swimming skill this summer :)

el began her journey of martial art this school year. I know she enjoys the lessons very much.

We always thought that en’s strongest subject is Reading. We were surprised to find out his math teacher signed him up for a math competition. Although their team didn’t win anything, his participation already made me so hyped up.

Little i’s creative pumpkin design: a rocketship flying off the pumpkin moon

This Halloween I was no longer able to convince them to dress up according to my expectation. el came up with this lady bird costume by herself.

en and his friend built a tank from scratch. I think they started out with the idea using the cardboard boxes to build boxy costumes for the Roblox characters. It got carried away and became a tank. It took them several weekends to finish it.

They did the trick-or-treat at the local mall. Their costume got the recognition of one of the best original costumes and received a Labubu doll.

In October, en went to a 5-day-4-night trip to Catalina Island with a lot of 6th graders from the school district, like a graduation trip before the junior high years. It was his first time leaving us overnight!

Couldn’t be more proud of my soon-to-be-grown cutie pies.
