Zoe will be the first tell you about the factual errors in this comic. For example, it wasn’t Keren who knew about this, it was Ekko. However, none of us could recall how the conversation started. So this was good as I could get, and besides, Zoe is always upset when Mommy tells me things so it’s a great way to solidify that.

Sorry! This comic is so late, but it has been a whirlwind weekend of celebrations. Her Aunt and Uncle came down to visit on Friday, and then we watched some anime. Saturday, we went to see a play “H.M.S. Pinafore” in Stratford. Sunday, we had Kamayan lunch, played board games, had dinner at the Keg, and then Keren made pie for dessert!

When Ekko was born, there were a number of complications. I still have the blog post I wrote, hidden away in one of the directories of my personal website. A lot of her doctors didn’t expect her to make it. But here she is, sixteen years later. I could get all sentimental about it, but right now, I am just so happy to celebrate life with Ekko.
