Hurray! We decided to move, mom and me, and so we made two trips to the San Francisco Bay Area in the winter of 2007. I was finishing up 1st grade, and had many friends who I was sad to leave behind. My mom sometimes gives me news about my friend Sidney. We don't have any more chickens, and I think we were anticipating the heat of another summer. We visited grandma at a housesit in Oakland during Christmas vacation, and again in Easter vacation.

Both times my mom got to meet people with whom she could find work. So finally we decided to pack up and go. My Aunt MarMar, who graduated from the name Mommy Kitty as I became older, came over to drive me to San Francisco. My mom drove the small moving truck, loading and unloading into storage with the help of our friend Haley who had stayed with us in the house in Tucson. I can't believe I no longer have my own room in a big house to play in with our own kitchen and everything, and a swimming pool in the back yard!
 
We took everything we wanted and left the rest behind for my Aunt Greta and grandpa Glenn to take care of when they fixed up our house to rent out to other University students.

What to do? A lot of running!
Freya made a lot of drawings during her school year. She drew at home on her mom's computer.

One of the things we did during our Easter visit was fly a big butterfly kite out in the windy Berkeley Marina. We went out twice with grandma, and the first time mama came along. It was a foggy morning, and grandma who bought the kite didn't know how to put it together but mommy did.
 
There was very little wind, even though we stood on a hillock, so the kite wouldn't go up.

The second time we went out to fly was very very windy and Mar Mar came with us. Grandma took the dog she was taking care of, Stella, with her. This time the kite went way way up and it was hard to bring it down.
