every day's a new dumb adventure

A little birdie told me

I couldn't believe I slept through the lei family morning routine, but somehow I did. I woke up to find Lin shuyuan and Jin huh (pinyin totally butchered there I'm sure) eating breakfast. We had a sushi-style breakfast wrap (very similar to what my mom makes) and then we chatted about things to do in the area. Neither of us knew where to go, but thanks to the power of the Internet we learned that locust grove (Samuel morse as in morse code's old summer home) was right down the street.

The property itself was huge and we only explored a teeny portion. That's about all you can do with a 3year old, but still we conquered a nice chunk. Afterwards we headed to price chopper where we chopped up some prices and shuyuan bought enough fruit for a BBQ. Only it's for us and I'm leaving tomorrow morning. I thought it was laughable but then I remembered we are Taiwanese and eating, especially fruit, is what we do best.

Next we came home for lunch. Shuyuan partook in the family tradition of cooking too much while I partook in eating too much. I also helped put together some puzzles and I think it's a fact, three year olds and I get along great.

Later chi huan came home and the boys played outside. Chi huan had a meltdown but it was Jin hue's meltdown that was the best. He was upset that he was upset and crying in front of me because it made them look bad. That's right, a 3 year old was worried about losing face.

Once the meltdowns ended we went for a drive and ended up at this puzzle perfect pond in fishkill (worst town name ever). I got some crazy news while there and the whole thing seemed like a surreal dream. It put a damper on the rest of the night, but I tried not to think about it. Boo though. Boos all around.

Ps. Randall told me that a bird flew into our house today. I think that means it's time to come on home.

Pps. Last night we 3way skyped with my aunt and morm and it was amazing.
