I like noodles. I love Mommy.

Now that I’m big enough to walk and do things on my own, I don’t want to walk or do things on my own. I want to be carried all the time. Today after dinner I was begging Mommy to carry me.

Oh man. It is still pretty hot and humid here in Japan. Hawaii was a lot more comfortable. Our short walks to the park are quite draining. I think I need a water break.

I’m pretty good now about saying itadakimasu at the beginning of meals and gochisousama at the end of meals. But sometimes I am just silly. Instead of saying itadakimasu this morning I was saying a very some “pants” with a respectful bow. I’m such a silly boy.

We were talking about how much I’ve grown in the past year and how different I was this trip to Hawaii compared to last summer. Mommy and Daddy were telling me how my cousins Maimai and Tata entertained me by singing the “Banana” song. I didn’t quite remember it so they showed me the video

Mommy does so much to make me happy. Today she made me a car omelette for dinner. Not only was it really cool, but it also had a lot of ketchup that I love! You would think that I may be hesitant to destroy and eat this masterpiece but I just dug in and gobbled

Today the first thing I did when I got to school was tell my teacher that I wanted to read zukan, which are pictorial books. They are pretty much like picture dictionaries with a bunch of explanations about different things. Naturally the books I choose are all about vehicles. Today we had water play. It

On our walk home, I asked (told) Mommy to take the path that went by the hospital so that I could see the ambulance. I hadn’t seen it the whole time I was in Hawaii. It has been a long time my old friend.

Just chatting about soup and being funny. Also making evil faces.

It is good to be back at school. I was happy to see my teachers and friends. Apparently my classmates missed me to. My teacher said that my classmates were asking about me while I was gone. I did surprisingly well in the morning despite having arrived back in Japan just last night. It pays

It was a great trip and I miss Nana and Papa already. The whole trip home I kept asking about them. On the inter-island flight I asked Daddy where they were and he explained that they were at home. I nodded that I understood. But when we got to the international airport I didn’t see

When we arrived back in Japan, we grabbed our luggage and went outside to try and get a taxi. While waiting, I was so excited to see so many buses. It had been so long since I saw proper city buses, and there were so many of them at the airport. Bus after bus after
