My nephew

My nephew Lay Lay, age 9 months, is the new king of the castle. His baby teeth are just popping up and he has just discovered that he can out cry a blow dry. When my brother and I sneaked up on him while he's asleep, he would punch his little fists and kick his little feet like a little kung fu master.



It's a lot of work caring for him. Watching my brother and my sister-in-law bath him is like witnessing the Golden Gate Bridge being built. Often times at mid-night my sister-in-law would be in the kitchen whipping up another meal, not for herself but for my nephew. How exhausting.



I hope he grows up a grateful boy thankful for how much his parents have sacrificed for him.
