Growing up with a little of both and the lessons learned along the way
From the category archives:
It wouldn’t be much of a Michael Jackson dance camp if the moonwalk wasn’t prominently involved. And sure enough, Maile brought home the beginnings of what I have no doubt will blossom into a killer moonwalk. I love her focus on the steps in this video…
And, of course, she taught Lauren too…

So it’s Tuesday, not Thursday – but one of my favorite videos came across my Timehop app and I had to repost. From 5 years ago today…
Man, time flies…

Last week Maile attended Camp Galileo and the focus for the week was around art and music (right up her alley!).
A guitar art piece that Maile made at Camp Galileo
For their final project, Maile and her campmates made their own one-man band contraption. For those who read this that I grew up with, it totally reminded me of something Pete Sawin would be proud of!
Maile was a great big sister, letting Lauren have a try too...
This is so cool - when do I get to go to camp?!?
As a side note, every day Maile’s counselor sent a little note home with her. They always praised her for her “determination” – I thought it was a nice touch and a cool way to provide praise. Here’s an example:
Maile: You were super determined in science today! You worked super hard on your harmonica even though it was difficult. But you didn’t give up! 🙂 You’re Awesome!

Remember this one? I like to call it “The one where daddy learns that sparklers aren’t made for 2 year olds…”

A little early for a #tbt, but stumbled across this video from two years ago tonight and it made me smile. Lauren still pretty much has the same laugh which is awesome…

Like her big sister before her, Lauren loves giving manicures. Freshly supplied while in Hawaii courtesy of Grandma Gail, she set to work. As you’ll see, Lauren takes her craft very, very seriously!
Even Papa got in on the action…
Dad note: The multi-tasking here is epic – I’ve never seen a nail salon that had the Red Sox games on. Lauren might be on to something…

Let’s just say we don’t come across many lizards in San Francisco…
Pretty brave though – they were really going after it!
