Letters to our Children – July | Sonia Marfatia-Goode Photography

Dear Ariya,

We’re back from the beach and you were so sad to leave. We had a great time with family but our biggest lesson is “that was fun, and now it’s done”. We came back to the house, ready to take more swim lessons. Last week, you took an “intro to ballet” class, and you LOVED it. The first day was iffy. You kept looking for me, waiting for me to come with you. But by the 2nd day, you were ready. You loved the leotard, the ballet shoes. You love twirling around. So we’re all signed up for ballet in the fall. I can’t wait for the recital!

This week you’re taking music camp. The theme is America the beautiful. And this time, you didn’t even look back, you went straight for Ms Karen and was ready to go. You’ve been having so much fun this week. Friday is the last day, and afterwards, we’re going to celebrate by taking you to your first movie, Finding Dory. You’re so excited to see it, and of course to eat popcorn.

Dear Asha,

You are 7 months old this month! And you keep getting bigger and bigger. You love avocado, and eat lots of bananas, pears and apples. We’re trying out peas and spinach, but you need it sweetened with some bananas. Your naps are getting longer and longer. You only wake up once during the night, maybe twice, but usually just once, which is awesome. I can see you rolling around getting from one end of the room to the other. Next step is crawling. And you’ve started to pull yourself up to sitting. uh oh, watch out now.
