Eating Pocky
Pocky (pronounced Pokkī) is currently Sophie's favorite snack. She occasionally dips the biscuit sticks in the chocolate. What she really likes is to get her whole hand in the chocolate cup and lick the chocolate off her fingers.

Pink Ukulele
Vân bought Sophie a pink Ukulele months ago, but Sophie didn't really care for it -- not even as a toy. Then Barbie came into the picture and changed everything. The Barbie movie "The Princess and the Popstar" really got Sophie interested in singing and strumming the Ukulele. Here's a video of Sophie singing her two favorite songs while strumming the Ukulele: "Here I Am" and "Look How High We Can Fly."
Sophie's Birthday and Father's Day
This year, Sophie's birthday and Father's Day happened to be on the same day. I had no choice but to share my day with her. It was actually really sweet that we could celebrate together. Vân picked Monsoon -- a Vietnamese restaurant by Eric Banh -- for the occasion.
The celebration at Monsoon lasted about 30 minutes. Vân and I probably had two bites each before Sophie threw up all over Vân's shirt -- front and back. We used to think this only happened in movies until it happened to us. The strange thing was that we weren't mad or embarrassed at all. We felt bad for Sophie because she was sick with bronchiolitis, so she could hardly keep anything down for the whole week. We cleaned up, tipped the waitress really well, and finished our meal at home.
