Ming Ming playing violin for Han Han
Emile is very interested in listening to Ming Ming on the violin. Ming Ming's violin is maybe the most familiar sound for him and probably reminds him of the womb. The practice was the regular sound throughout my pregnancy, and compare to the silence of the library where I spent most of my time, the violin must have sounded pretty good to him.

Ming Ming turns 7!
Birthday party at the point in Chicago south side
friends from the Lycee joined us at the party: Mathide, Francesca, Novelle, Adien, and Renzo. I did not take photos at all since I have Emile with me the whole time.
the kids spent a long time exploring the shoreline, looking for crystals, building dams, etc.
Ming Ming's birthday cake--the first time I tried using icing to write on the cake.
The icing, made of lemon juice and cream cheese, was delicious.
a cake I tried out on June 13, layered with cream and strawberries, and topped with a caramel cage. The weather was too humid for it, it got really soft, almost melted (I probably also added too much lemon juice to make the caramel less brittle). I don't like it too much, but the kids were all happy to have cake with candy.
having cake at the Lacrioxs.
