Today we celebrated Sugi’s 9th birthday. Yesterday she picked out a chocolate strawberry cake and so after work, we went to her house for a very delicious dinner. Her family is rather unique… Her little sister Nazuna is 4 and a doll. I wish I could nanny for her she’s as cute as a button! Her mom is an artist and 30, while her dad is 60 and fluent in English. I was surprised when I met him at how healthy and young he looked, almost spunky even. He was a lot of fun and very entertaining. He tried to teach me Japanese songs and when the time came for cake, he wrote down the words of the Japanese ‘Happy birthday’ equivalent for me to sing with everyone while he played a traditional Japanese string instrument, the name of which escapes me. Sugi was a happy little kid and took three tries to blow out all the birthday candles. : )
