I love that Evie likes to read! Sunday was the first time I saw her deliberately bring a book with us when we went out for the day so that she can read while we waited for food, and then read diligently instead of being distracted and playing with Nora. Yay for bookworms, and I hope I don't jinx it!
We got back from Japan about a week ago and we're still talking about what a great trip it was! Japan has never been super high on my places to visit but for a lot of reasons (I've never been, it's clean, it's safe, it's different) we took the plunge and booked it as our summer vacation this year. It helped that our friends, the Wongs, went last year, raved about it and loved it so much they were going again and we were able to coordinate so that some of our trip overlapped with theirs. It helped even more that the yen is at a 10-year low (maybe all time low?) against the dollar, which, aside from airfare, made everything quite affordable. Look how low the yen is! We lucked out that it kept falling after we booked our tix in Dec. Since this was our first big overseas trip since COVID and with kids (or, lets face it, SINCE kids), I dove into prepping for our trip - including trying to keep up my Duolingo streak of learning Japanese for at least a few minutes everyd
What book did she bring?
ReplyDeleteShe's reading this really awful series called Dork Diaries. It's too grown up for her age, but all of her friends are reading it. I don't like it at all.
