My Pompom

Henry and Mommy saw an adorable Santa penguin at a toy store last year and had to have it. His name is Pompom, and he is the source of a ton of drama. Everyone insists he is theirs, so "MY Pompom!" is frequently shouted. When learning Japanese, George quickly became able to claim Pompom as his: boku no Pompom desu!







Georgie the Language Nerd

George has been trying to learn several written languages, including Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic, and Hebrew. It is exhausting trying to chase down new dictionaries and flashcards all the time. He is also trying to help Mommy learn Japanese but she is a slow learner. George learned all his kana in less than a week and has moved onto Kanji, while she is only halfway through hirigana. He also creates his own written languages and is working on a dictionary.

Softblank!

Mommy loves to take pictures of Geo wrapped up in softblank and convert them to black and white to make them look more artistic. Henry continues to insult softblank by calling it mangeblank or mb.

Japanese studies

Geo became interested in Japanese after watching some Mario Maker videos from Japan. He is teaching himself the alphabet and dragging out Daddy's ancient Japanese textbooks and dictionaries. He is even trying to learn some kanji (Chinese characters). Maybe video games aren't so bad after all...
