“When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. And so since we are in Japan, we did what women do at this day of the year – we gave Dad a (Godiva) box of chocolates! You did a pretty good job in carrying our gift and handing it over to Daddy. You did a good job too in eating half of them (and almost succeeded in convincing me to give you my share).  

This evening, you coloured some pages of your Barbie colouring book. I love it that you always try to improve things, where’s there’s chance, without us having to tell you to. You also don’t limit yourself only to what you’re supposed to do. And for these, I am very thankful. I pray that you continue to be so, as you grow older and wiser. 

By the way, I loved how you laughed while saying Barbie had too much ketchup. Just like you, you ketchup monster, you. 😍
