Mother's Day

Last Sunday was Shuyi's first Mother's Day as a mommy. While a major cause for celebration, it's difficult to make any grandiose plans with an 11-month-old in tow, so we kept it fairly low key. We first had a leisurely brunch at Home, a restaurant in the Castro. We then went to an open house in Noe Valley (the place wasn't very nice, although it was priced pretty low for the size). Finally, I cooked(!) pan-seared Halibut over asparagus for dinner, helped put Ruby to bed. We watched some Sunday night TV programming before heading to bed pretty early ourselves. So all in all, it was a fairly typical weekend day for us, except for the part about me cooking of course :)

I also made this video to commemorate Shuyi as a mother. I really look forwards to the years ahead, when Ruby can be involved in showing her love and admiration for her most wonderful mommy and making Mother's day even more special.
