Six! Our little girl is six years of age. She’s so excited to be a big girl and this is her birthday party. Can you see the two goats that came down the mountain for the party?

Raaarrrr! He is a tiny bear, you see.

A fish for each child, flying from the house. Flying Koinobori (carp streamer) is a Japanese tradition in honor of children for a good future and in the hope that they will grow up healthy and strong. The blue one is for Riu, the yellow one for Pau, and the little red one is for Boi. These are our children, and our hope for the future.

There they go, heading off down the hill with Aida.

The story of a boy called Boi and his collection of stones.

Riu got this cool jigsaw for her birthday. We very sensibly did the edge pieces first.
