Season’s Greetings from Max and Mina, everyone!!  

Not to be confused with Yellow Max. The governing body of Tae Kwon Do in Thailand finally sent Max and Mina’s new belts – in adult sizes! We had to wrap them around their waists 4 times! Anyway, a sharp knife in my car remedied that today (thx M). Max can now kick hard enough to actually hurt me, but not quite hard enough to do damage. Mina can do damage if you are stupid enough to make her mad and leave your face within scratching distance. ’nuff said.

I had no idea I’d started a trend until recently, when a nurse at the maternity ward told me about similar ones of different babies. She said I’d left a printout of this photo in the private room Nam stayed at and they just kind of left it there. Eventually, people who stayed in that room started leaving similar photos there and the cleaning staff left them all on the dresser. I’ve asked to see them, so if the nurse comes through for me, I’ll post them here.
