Here are some comments that Joshua's mother noted for her son's first birthday celebration!

* Joshua wore the same hanbok that his dad wore at his dohl! My MIL carefully saved it in hopes that her grandson would be able to wear it. So sweet :)

* I was inspired to do a camping theme for Joshua because he is a typical boy in many ways - SO incredibly curious, adventurous, experiential, and active. From the moment he wakes up in the morning, he does not sit still. He always has a sense of wonder and is busy touching and experiencing the world around him. It's hard to keep up with him sometimes but I love this about him and want to nurture and grow his curiosity. It goes hand in hand with our hopes for Joshua - we hope he can grow up to be strong and courageous and full of joy as he lives the adventure of his life just like the Joshua of the Bible.

* As part of his dohljabi, two of the options were president and park ranger. When Mike was a kid he wanted to be a park ranger and I wanted to be president! :)

* We were so grateful for Mike's parents who flew in from Philadelphia just to be part of the dohl.
