Today was a relaxing day after Thanksgiving. It snowed and so the kids had a ton of fun playing in the snow while the grown-ups mostly took it easy.
Lily, Lydia and I did go to the T-mobile store and we got Lily a new iphone with more storage, and we gave her old one to Lydia, with a new case and screen protector (so it seems new!). Lydia chose such a stylish case for it and she was so so happy to get it. She has long awaited this day, and we feel she has more than earned it with her grades, responsible behavior and help with siblings. We love and trust you Lydia! We also are aware of the dangers, and Lily sat Lydia down before we gave it to her to have, “their last ever face-to-face conversation.” LOL. I’m sure that is not the case, but Lily is right to be concerned, and we do have a number of controls and rules that hopefully help our perfect daughter develop good technology habits.
For dinner, we went to our new favorite restaurant, Yamato. They have great sushi, at a good price, and the best part is they have a private room that works so perfectly for our family. It felt so connective all being around a large table together. We had so much fun with Clark, Meera and Soren a week ago, that we wanted to come again with Swathi too! Sushi is also Soren’s favorite food, so he was also very happy. Lily gets annoyed at how many pictures I take of us eating, lol. That only makes the mischevious part of me want to take more. Sorry Lily!
