Up at the local park I saw that there were two orange trees laden with ripening fruit and also a large walnut tree, with clusters of the green nuts dangling just out of arms reach (have to enlist Nick's help to gather some of the bounty).
Our regular playdate with Jo and Bettina was in Ebisu again. We started at the smoothie bar and then went on to the playground. Bettina had a visitor over from San Francisco, and I felt sorry for her having to spend her aftenoon with all of us as she is in her fifties and has no children.
In the bath, I taught Emily the final letters of the alphabet today: Q and V. She is getting better at counting, able to say the numbers in the correct order up to 8 sometimes, but she doesn't recognise the numbers, apart from 1, yet.
