Things Benji Says

"Mommy, me an' Julian an' Leo an' Leon an' Aidan went to the Tower of Power!"

Don't ask me to explain.  I have no idea.  I do know that he's enjoying school a lot and that he's really having fun with his new friends.

Cheap Sunglasses

On our ride out to the apple orchard this weekend, Benji and Xavi took turns playing with my sunglasses.  --Victoria

Visit to Toronto over Labor Day Weekend

Benji got to spend time with his cousin Gavin, who is eight years old now.  I've included photos from when Benji was 6 weeks old and Gavin was five, and from when Benji was one-and-a-half and Gavin was six.  I find these indescribably sweet.  --Victoria

First Report Card

The note in his backpack read:

9-4-12

Benji listened to teachers when asked to sit on the toilet (only 1 initial refusal) and peed in the toilet twice!!

Waiting at the airport

After visiting family in Toronto for the weekend, Benji amused himself with cookies and toy trains and trucks while we waited at the airport for our flight back to Washington.  --Victoria
