Summer Dispatch #3

Family continues to be A Lot, and I look forward to leaving for Taiwan with greater intensity. Plus, my mom is going on a trip and won't be back before I have to leave, so I'm not super invested in sticking around. The one friend I haven't seen that I want to see is not able to meet up -- her husband has cancer, so of course socializing isn't on the menu.

My niblings are still a delight, though. They watch a lot of British children's shows and have picked up some adorable pronunciations. Aden used to say "to-MAH-toes," and Ilaria says, "I cAHn't!" when she can't do something. I tried to get a recording of her saying it, but of course the moment I get out my phone, she won't say it!

Ilaria is much more chill than Aden, so we've been spending time hanging out in my room, cozied up under a blanket, watching Hey Duggee! Aden has moved on from Sarah and Duck to some number show and a monster truck show. Hey Duggee! has some cute little animals, but more importantly, it has the Sticky Stick song. Even more ear-wormy than Baby Shark, the niblings love to have Sticky Stick dance parties.

Enjoy the sick beats. :)

How long between when your mom leaves and you can get gone?
