“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” Yes, this was taken a few weeks back. We were on our way to a bbq with friends and the girls decided they wanted to look out the window. We had fun that day 🙂 Remember how I talked about writing during me weekend off? Well that never happened. I was enjoying being alone in nature so much that by the time I got back into my hotel room, I was exhausted and too tired to blog. So I didn’t. But it was a good trip. A much needed one since I hadRead More →

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” We had a friend from the US visiting Tokyo for work so we met up with him and another friend last weekend for lunch and dinner and to hangout. The kids got free balloons from a new shop that opened up and was entertained by them while we waited to be seated at the Eggs ‘n Things in Odaiba.Read More →

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” This one is from when we were in Hong Kong. The night we arrived, my grandmother was so happy to see us and have us stay over that the minute we entered her home, she fed my kids Oreos and milk. All this at 10:30 at night. The kids were thrilled and tried to eat as many as they could while I was getting settled in at her apartment. I finally had to cut them off at 7 Oreos. Still, they were so happy to eat that much sugar this late at night.Read More →

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” Imitation at its finest. E was posing with a peace sign and K was trying to copy her except she hasn’t figured out how to hold up just 2 fingers yet. 🙂  I’m just catching up on this since we’ve been busy and traveling so much. Always better late than never, right?Read More →

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” They were best friends when we first got on the crowded bus. They even held hands and giggled together over silly things. Minutes after this was taken, there was scream, yelling, and crying over who gets to hold which one of mommy’s hand. It was a very long bus ride after that. We were in Kyoto this weekend with Jason’s parents, who are visiting us in Japan this week. The trip was a rough one since K’s terrible two’s reared its ugly head everywhere we went. I’ve wanted to go on a familyRead More →

“A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2015.” I was getting Ellie’s school stuff ready for the next day while Jason was in the bathroom getting the kids to brush their teeth.  “Jen, come here and see what the kids are doing! You’re going to want a picture of this!” He was right. It was a cute moment worthy of a picture 🙂 I’ve trained him well. Read More →
