Noah Cardiel Holt | My life according to other people

Aunt Mindy!

Noah’s 4th of July art at school.

Playing hide and seek.

Stuck.

Park #2.

They really teach you how to live at Noah’s school. Every week it feels like there’s some kind of party. Some reason to eat dessert and dance around. I’m doing it all wrong, at least the next generation is learning to do it right. Here are some photos from the “moving up” (i.e. “graduation”) party at Noah’s school two weeks ago. They started things off with a singing and signing demonstration.

Rappers.

The next number.

Diplomas.

A little wobble for the crowd.

Mia.

Aaron and Savannah.

Noah with Clio.

Leo, Laila, and Zion.

Ms. Yelena.

Later, at home, Noah played on my computer while we packed for Cape Cod.

Lego’sâ„¢ are pretty cool right now.

One of my favorite photographers, Paul Graham, was signing books a while back. Lil’ dude came with me.

I rewarded Noah for his patience with some new shoes.

(New shoes not pictured).

Amanda Friedman is in town, and the other day Noah showed her around his school.

Then Noah gave her a guided tour of the neighborhood.

And told her some jokes.

Amanda gave us a tour of the apartment where she was staying.

A quick portrait session.

A quick landscape photo.

Then dinner.
