Reading his card from Halmoni and Haraboji

Opening his present from Uncle David and Auntie Bo

Oh the anticipation!

Admiring the helicopter Amelia built for him (he spent most of the afternoon in this position)

actually seven

first day of school

momma:  gaby, we're going to school today!

gaby:  ok!

and it turns out, he really was ok with it!  the report is that he basically played with water all day, but there were no tears at all.  we'll see how day 2 goes...

(you may be wondering why gaby started school on july 1.  well, his preschool has a summer program, and we thought we'd give him a "soft" start.)
