We’ve had some fun end of June/beginning of July activities. The kids have all been busy with the library summer reading program and each week requesting 2 books from the library that we can pick up in the parking lot. Coppelia picked a cook book the last time we went and is so proud of…

The last few years Father’s Day weekend has found us up in the mountains at Korean Heritage Camp. It is one of our favorite weekends of the year and we all learn so much. However with all things COVID this year Heritage Camps had to make the difficult decision to not hold camp in person….

We sat down the other night and had a very frank but age appropriate discussion with the kids about the riots and racial tensions going on. They voiced their understanding as best as they could at their respected ages but then after we tucked them into bed that night Caedmon came out and said he…
