With Kimi and Yuka

Yuka came up from L.A. to see Tesla, but since she's allergic to cats, she's staying at Kimi's. So I drove over to Concord to hang out. The ride was almost smooth except any time traffic slowed, Tes cried. Luckily, traffic was more or less OK, but I definitely shouldn't attempt to head over any time even close to commuting time.

Was so much fun to see Kimi's 3 kids totally into Tesla. Her oldest daughter Kayli, who is starting 2nd grade soon (and I've known her since a baby...oh my! to think she'll be in 2nd grade), has baby experience and was great holding Tesla very gently. The boys kept peeking at her, bringing all sorts of toys they hoped she might want to play with. Unfortunately, Tesla still just stares at things.

Interestingly, although obviously tired, Tesla would not sleep. I think the new environment and the totally different noise of kids around her made her curious to keep alert. I was amazed at how much staring she did. For dinner, there was no way we could simply put her down, so Yuka and Kimi kindly took turns holding her while I chowed down.

I had a great time just hanging like good 'ol times.
