Someone also for the first time referred to me as James' Mom! Isn't that great?! There's a tradition in Korea that once someone has a child, they are then known as so and so's mom or dad. For years I never knew my aunts and uncles' names because they were always the oldest cousin's mom or dad. OK, it's not as great for the younger siblings because the mom and dad's always referred to as the oldest's but for me, it's a lot of fun. So now I'm James' mom. Although according to the tradition, Monty's always going to be "Emily's dad."
You're probably wondering about the first Christmas since it's May, but we missed last year's first Christmas with James, so my mother-in-law left her tree up until James came to visit. So now he's had his first Christmas Presents as well! I'm so looking forward to more "firsts!"
