Best part about moving: Box forts

Dear Mai,

It appears to be that time of the year again when Mommy and Daddy like to move into a new place. Let's hope we settle a bit in our new place but first things first. Getting ready to move.

Last year around this time we had some dear friends not only help us move but pretty much do everything for us. I like to think that Mommy and Daddy were in a state of shock with you being pretty new to this world and us not wanting to leave our last place that led us to be so lazy. That reminds me of more advice for you. 

Make quality friendships. Your mother and I are blessed with some of the best friends humans could ask for. Not only do they physically help us move but they help us spiritually too. Make good friends Mai. I don't know how else to emphasize it. I wouldn't be the same person I am today without these great people around me. People are what makes the world go round. Live in the moment with them.

So this year we are getting ready to move into our new place with an upcoming Ohio trip in the works. (By the way, we are pretty proud that you can say "Ohio" now. Next up: work on your response to "O H!")

We're trying to be more proactive with moving this year. You're a big help too.


After a few days of casual packing we have our box wall started. With room for a little Maya fort of course.


That's probably about the best we are going to get before we head back east. Look out girl, the next few weeks are about to be a whirlwind of activity. I can't wait for you to get to explore our new house! Soon come... soon come.

Love,


Daddy
