Long before Master Yoda trained Skywalker, there was an even more powerful Jedi. One who’s power came from deep within, and whose unconquerable spirit would live through the ages. Her name…was Cross-eyed Jedi. Beware! The force is strong with this one.

Mabel and I got back from the playground and I mentioned I was thirsty. A few minutes later, I walked into the kitchen to find this.
We have clearly slowed down making new posts on here so here’s a few photos to catch us up a bit. Mabel is 6.5 yrs old right now. She has finished her Kindergarten years and is getting ready to go into 1st grade in two months. She has lost her very first tooth and the second one is well on its way to coming out as well. But above all, she remains the sweet, funny, sharp little girl she’s always been.

Back in December, when abuela and abuelo were visiting, Mabel graciously demonstrated her mad dance skills.
This year for Christmas, Abuelo and Abuela came to visit us from Honduras! It was so great to spend the holidays with them and show them around San Francisco. Mabel enjoyed having them here and was quite sad when they went home. We had so much fun that we kept forgetting to take photos.
