Rostam was dressed for the holiday as a fuzzy-fronted bat. His cousin Maya opted out of her cheerleader costume for a lovely outfit brought to her from Vietnam by family friends.

Auntie Anne always jumps at the chance to read to her nieces and nephews. Maya is sporting the cheerleader outfit.

Yasent was here on picture-taking day so I was able to photograph him in the new shirt.

Maya's choice for an S item during alphabet week was an obvious one, a large snake made by my niece, Whitney.

Lucas is always making fantastic creatures out of legos.

Maya had a couple of sick days when her mother was out of town. She was a good patient and so sweet with her rosy pink cheeks.
