A Bongo-er Is Born

Kapono-bear got baby bongos. Is there anything cuter than a baby and a baby bongo set? Emiliano purchased musical instruments from Uncle Jon, China-bound, and Kapono is quickly catching onto the drumming concept. As I watched him slap his palms onto the bongo skins, I wondered if we'll be regretting introducing him to drums when he reaches his teenage years? Actually, I confess ...I love the thought of Kapono as a musician, like his daddy.

He turned 6 months this past Friday and the time has gone by so quickly it's almost dizzying. Someone mentioned the other day that I didn't seem like an exhausted mom and I thought, you didn't see me three months ago! Although, I admit that I feel spoiled by Kapono. He's happy and healthy and mellow and makes parenting a joy.

And, is it only us, or is the sky a little less blue and the future a little less bright now that Harry Potter has come to an end? I simply couldn't bear it when I finished Book 7 so I started the series all over again with Book 1 the very same day (despite my looming final this week). I've decided to treat myself to a Harry Potter fest now that summer school is coming to a close & I'll have about 4-6 weeks before I start classes in the fall.

Auntie Kelly, Uncle Kenny & cousin Kaia arrive soon (yes, I know, what is the weird "K" obsession in this family?) and we just can't wait!
