Hello, gentle reader! After several years, we are back, with a new look, new attitude, and lots of learning under our belts.

To quickly catch you up, Aurora is heading into 6th grade in two weeks. She turned 11 this summer. She now has her own phone, her own laptop, a retainer, and her own (very strong) will.

I apologize for the terrible picture quality, but my phone camera glass is broken.

Sushi was the order of the day after Aurora turned 11, a previously shunned food  that she suddenly decided she might like after all.

And she did!

Her tastes have expanded from rice cereal and bottles full of milk to peanut butter and tuna, and now to steak, sushi, cowboy cookies, and iceberg lettuce. (We are not so fond of healthy vegetables, she and I.)

Publishing this on June 2, 2020, although it was written in July 2019.
