* A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013. * 

Biet: The week before you become a big sister, you stack blocks on your Mama's belly.  So determined, so focused. When Auntie Emmy tries to help, you become a naughty little girl and throw a block at her.  Nobody tells Biet that the biggest block can't go on the top of the tower. 
Lucien: Snuggled warm inside, you listen to the heartbeat of your Mama and the voices of your family.  Every so often you  jab your Mama with a kick, shaking your sisters block tower where it balances precariously on your little house.
