Present from Maho-kun

Maho and Anthony at 3½ Months

While Anthony and I were in The States this summer, Fumie got a chance to visit with a friend she met while we lived in Cupertino, Yoppu-san, who now lives near Tokyo. She has a son, Maho-kun, who is a week older than Anthony.

During the meeting this summer, Maho-kun sent along a present for Anthony, who got to open it today just before bedtime. Having used phrases like “unbridled joy” too much lately, I'll leave these without captions and let them speak for themselves...

One comment so far...

While reading your very interesting blog (I’m interested in photography, gadgets, Japan, family relationships and plenty of other things) I came to the conclusion that you don’t use the word “unbridled” enough. Please try to find more uses for it!*

Secondly, I would also like to know more about what you eat when in Japan. Being a self-confessed sushi-lover, I sometimes have romantic dreams of living in Japan so as to be able to eat it (and other fishy delights) every day. I know there’s a lot more to Japanese cuisine than noodles, fish sushi, teriyaki and tempura, but those are pretty much all I know…
