We went out for yakiniku as an early birthday dinner for Daddy. As usual, it was delicious and I ate a lot! It was all you can eat and I’m still young enough where it is free for me so it is very cost effective.

I mentioned before how Daddy treats Mommy to new drinks at Starbucks and I like to get a taste. But sometimes there are drinks that I can’t drink, like ones with nuts. (I haven’t tried nuts yet so we don’t know whether or not I’m allergic). In those cases, Mommy and Daddy make sure I

I do a lot of goofy stuff. All of a sudden I felt that the iPad screen needed a cleaning so I got a swiffer and started cleaning…in the middle of FaceTime with Nana and Papa.

Often when I’m asked what I want to eat I will answer “hamburgers”. I really love hamburgers. So I was so happy when Mommy made hamburgers for dinner tonight. We didn’t have hamburger buns, but I’m there for the meat so I didn’t mind at all. I ate everything up and was still hungry so

Mommy wanted to send a video of me singing happy birthday to one of her friends, but I got performance jitters and couldn’t quite keep it together to sing the song. I’m usually so good at singing, but I was just a bit bashful.

We went to the park to fly our kites today. They didn’t exactly soar, but we had fun running around with them. With all the running around we ended up playing chase. I would tell my friends, “I’m going to run away” and they would respond by saying, “Okay, I’ll chase you!”

I’m just showing how well I slept. I slept good.

Daddy stopped by the convenience store on his way home today and got us all special drinks. I drank mine eagerly and quickly. Too quickly actually. I was trying to tell Mommy and Daddy that I understood that this drink was special and I wouldn’t get it every day, but in the middle of my

I really enjoy our weekly English lessons at school. Of course the English part comes easy to me, but I like the stories, quizzes and songs too! There was a lot to explore on our walk today. We had fun playing in the sand but also ran around a lot. We were pretending to be

Despite being difficult at school today, I was very happy at home. I ate a good dinner and then even got to eat some dessert (leftovers from the weekend). Then I played with Mommy! And I had fun playing with Daddy when he came home. I’m just happy at home.

We went to visit the prefectural office and see some nice flowers today. It was a nice walk, but it did not start off well for me. I was being difficult and said that I didn’t want to put my shoes on by myself. But when my teacher offered to help me, I refused her

I came out to show her the pants hat Daddy made for me and showed it to Mommy with a goofy face that cracked her up.

It was a snowy day today, but that didn’t stop us from having a great time flying our kites in the park. In fact, it was so much fun that when our teachers told us that it was time to go back, I said, “No! I’m not going back!” It was just too much fun.

Today we had a fire drill. As usual, we listened intently as our teachers explained what to do in case of a fire or earthquake. After the instruction we also practiced how to protect ourselves. We all did very well. It was a rainy day today so we couldn’t go out for a walk. Instead

I got ready really quick today so that I could have more morning driving practice.

When my friend came over, one of the first things we did was prepare today’s dessert. We each got our own flavor of Fruiche (fruit yogurt mix) and we did a very good job mixing it. It looked so delicious that it was hard to wait for it to firm up before we ate it.

I’m usually good about cleaning up after I play. But I can be very particular about how I clean up. I can even waver about my position on cleaning up at that time.
