hello

This morning was tough. You woke up at 5 a.m., even though your mom and dad had only gone to bed around 2.

First, you woke your mom, and she tried to soothe you for a while. Then your dad was woken up too. But nothing seemed to work—you wanted water, then milk, and still couldn’t settle down.

Your mom lost her patience, and then your dad sai…Read More

Your uncle came over for one day this week. At first, you felt a little shy, but then you had lots of fun playing with him. He has two little kids too, so he knows how to make children happy. Haha.

It has been four months since the last update — please forgive your father for not staying consistent.

Father has realized that with age and a busy work life, health issues come up more often. They’re just minor problems, but they do affect his ability to write daily updates.

From now on, Father will do his best to keep recording.

Today, I saw you grew up a bit more. When I got home, you were eating cookies, and you took more cookies from the bag by yourself. The best part is, you threw the plastic bag into the trash bin on your own. Good boy!

Your mom says you’ve started to throw tantrums. When you want something and she doesn’t give it to you, you raise both hands, huff, and show that you’re upset and angry. Haha.

Today is your mom’s birthday, and as tradition goes, I gave her a bouquet of roses.

Today is a big day around the world—the U.S. election. Dad doesn’t usually like watching the news, but today he’s following the election updates. It’s not because who wins will change his life; it’s just some fun to watch during work breaks.

But Dad wanted to share an idea with you: Can a president in another country affect our lives in the fu…Read More

The first time I heard you say “papa” on the phone,the feeling was very special,warm,and mostly,it was deeply moving

To take better pictures of our life, Dad bought a fancy phone that takes great photos. Today, Mom said you can walk from one room to the living room, back and forth, and you feel really proud. It looks like you’ll soon be able to walk well! Time goes by so fast!
The human “AI” walking model parameters seem ready to start working now!

It’s been a long time since we went out—almost 20 days since your last fever. Following Mom’s suggestion, we went to a mall to eat and see if there were any places for you to play.

Today, we had Hubei cuisine, and it was delicious! You drank milk at home an hour ago and then ate almost a whole bowl of food, including rolls made from flour, l…Read More

You can now hold your own bottle to drink milk! Whenever I say “lie down,” you end up “crawling,” so it seems you don’t quite understand the difference between “lying down” and “crawling.”

Yesterday, Dad took you to the playground downstairs, and something quite unpleasant happened. I saw a girl and a little boy on the swing, and when I wanted them to play with you, as soon as I put you on the swing, the little boy pushed you and hit your head. It turns out that little kids can have such a strong sense of territory, and not every…Read More

Every time Dad comes home, he just wants to happily hug you and play with you, getting so excited he acts like a monkey. He can’t fully express himself and babbles like a little child. But your mom doesn’t really like this version of “Dad.”

You are becoming more and more attached to your mom. As long as she’s around, you can’t take your eyes off her for a second. If she leaves, you start crying right away.

Today is the same as yesterday; your parents are working, and you’re with Grandma and Grandpa. But you’ve gotten stronger and broke the fence!
