Hello! I am back from my week away — which, I will say, did not go to plan. A couple of days into last week, Sophia had her first fever. It was a bit of a stressful time for us all, but she’s totally fine and everything passed as normal.

Pokémon has been part of my life since 1999. This week, I got to introduce Sophia to it — and watching her choose her first starter stirred up a lot of memories.

I wrote about nostalgia, parenthood, and passing things on.

I am proud of this post. Please enjoy.

There’s a new Pokémon game out this week, which is always an exciting time for me. However, I haven’t had any time to play it yet. That’s the trade-off I need to make these days, as my work and family life allow for a lot less time
