Sushi Parlor: Joshua's 1 Year Old Birthday

Finally, Joshua is 1 year old. Seems like it was only yesterday when Joshua was born. I guess "finally" was not the right word to start this series of pictures, but it was a hard year for Joshua. His skin condition (Eczema) has not gotten any better. Doctors and friends all said that Eczema clears up or gets a lot better after 2 or 3 years. We are definitely hoping for the best.

Not all is bad during Joshua's first year. He had lots of fun! He went back to Taiwan to visit grandpas and grandmas. He went to amusement parks. Not to mention countless play dates. Best of all, he had tons and tons of love from us, especially his sister, Crystal. Surprisingly, Crystal is very protective of her brother. She usually puts herself between Joshua and approaching strangers or if a friend of ours wanted to touch Joshua, Crystal would tried to stop them as if they were going to hurt him. It is very heart-warming to see that kind of bonding between them.

Well, here are some shots taken at Joshua's birthday party. There were 8 or 9 families at the house that day. I chose not to post any pictures that had them in it because I'm not sure how other people feel about having their pictures posted on the Internet. Nevertheless, we definitely had a blast (more than Joshua I believe :p).
