As some of you may recall, I tend to stalk my children on their first days of school as they either walk to the middle school or go down the street to catch the bus to high school, so with my new Japanese daughter, I was just as stalkery! HAHA. All of our Cherry Blossom trees were in bloom. Sort of fitting. Wakana has left us already. I now have 3 separate Japanese daughters to claim my own! Our family continues to grow, and our love for Japan fills our hearts. But for now, I'm in cry, cry, cry mode.
Akin to the movie "Big" when Tom Hanks is walking down the street at the end. They grow way too fast but we need to get more amazing people up and out in this world. That's how I handle it:-)
Literally.
