My little ninja got the Most Improved award at her karate belt test yesterday.  Here she is with her award and her awesome karate teacher, James O'Connor.

Day 118

Natalie and Nick leaving for a special night.  Dinner at Lucrezia and then the father/daughter dance at Natalie's school.  It seems like just last week that Dick was doing this with our girls.

How come robins don't come back to the same nest like some birds do?  This a perfectly good nest going to waste.
