His first e-mail note!!

Today, I checked my mail and to my lovely surprise I had a message, but what was even more surprising is that in this message was another little note directed to Kenji alone! Upon informing him of this and of the person whom the note was from his face lit up! He had had a phone conversation with this lovely person a few months back which consisted of none other than good and naughty dinosaurs and cockroaches -- of how he doesn't like cockroaches!! These topics, mind you, are biggies for him -- my little animal/creation lover. Heh.

Anyways, back to his special first note. He can read/recognize his name so I made him check out to whom the little note was directed and when he read aloud his name his face was in shock, ha! I read it to him and showed him the photos that were attached and he was overjoyed at the simple fact that he got a note from a far, far away place.

Here's the little note he got:

To Suko and Kenji: A little note with a lot of love

Dear Kenji!

I love you! This is Grandma Margie and I am now in Canada, a long way away from Mexico, for 3 weeks! I saw the pictures of you with your new school uniform and you look so handsome and like a little man! I am so proud of you for going to school now and learning a lot of new things! I am sure you are a good little witness to all your friends and your teacher! I pray for you, that you will like school, have a very sweet teacher, and that you will be in good health so you can make a lot of progress in your learning! Here it is already cold, but the trees are many different colors... The Lord makes His creation so beautiful!

The other day, we went to the Niagara Falls which are some of the biggest in the world! I am sending you a picture so you can see how big and powerful they are!

I send you a big hug and lots of prayers,

Grandma Margie

So sweet! He loved it! And it was so funny to see him scrutinizing the picture, while saying; "where is she mommy, me don't see her?" Ha! Guess he expected to see her as well. Awww ...

Here is an older video (around August) of Kenji making mention of dinosaurs/animals. He really got into dinos after watching "Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaur," hence his comment about good and naughty dinos in the video. Heh. -- I love the facial expressions he makes half-way through the video!



Our room got so messy -- I don't know how, ehe -- that in the end I had more inspiration to move to the next room, then to clean up my previous room, ha! Seriously my room has never been this messy!

Oh, and you'll notice some of Kenji's photography talent -- or the lack of it, heh -- towards the end of the picture slide. Kenji wanted to take a pic of me, but I never thought he would take one of me in 'parts,' ha! Those pics were his very first try, I'm sure that soon enough he'll get it down a little better. :) He seems to have this thing for computers, phones, and cameras right now -- well actually more than ever as he's been maneuvering a computer since he was 1 1/2 and would have gotten his hands on the camera too, but that I didn't permit, heh.



Kenji put to good use abuelo's clean pair of socks! Ha!
