Noi's 7th Birthday Party

What a blast~! We invited some girls from Noi's elementary school class. The games were color a T-shirt, as a memory from the party, and a lucky draw and pick a present board, which Hideto and Noi made together. I baked the cake and Noi received so many nice wishes from the Moms that came along too and it was great to sit down with all the Moms and chat.

I feel so lucky to have such a healthy and happy daughter. Her and her friends made me very happy with all their smiles.

Noi's Classroom Visit

It was a delight to see Noi's classroom and watch the teacher teaching for math class. We had a conference last week too and Noi's teacher told us she is enjoying school and does well in all the subjects.

7-5-3 Day with Noi

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shichi-Go-San

This week was Shichi-Go-San (7-5-3) Day in Japan. It was a beautiful sunny day and we went to the shrine near Hideto's parents home and the priest did a blessing. It was so interesting; my first experience. It made me very happy to pray for Noi's health and happiness and safety. But I had no idea what he was really saying - LOL~!!!!
