As young men, learn to control the passions.
In middle age, be just.
In old age, give good advice.
Then die, without regret."

Having planned to bring kids to MoMA for a while, I got the chance in this weekend. I had confidence that the big one will enjoy the trip but not quite sure the little one. Saturday in MoMA is mob. Lots of tourists in town. However, it is interesting to let kids to observe how people from different cultures appreciate arts. The little one started wondering around the art work and acting to be part of them by learning from people from different countries.

This is the first time that kids visited New York Hall of Science. They are very excited about the exhibit. Zozo was so excited and cannot wait to raise her hand to ask the instructor: "Where is your magic wand?"

Well, isn't it a magical for her to ask this question? LOL

You lost your second tooth, my dear....
You proudly showed the tooth to Mom, Dad, Nana, Papa, Baby sister, Camp director, Piano teacher...
You wrote a note to tell Tooth Fairy not to take the tooth away..
You kept the tooth in the nice bag and would like to keep it forever..
You smile happily through your missing tooth
You dance swiftly with your missing tooth
You asks me if I believe in Tooth Fairy..
I would say..
Yes, My dear. I am looking at one...
