Last week we received a telephone call from the City Hall that starting next month Erika can enter in a Hoikuen or a Daycare nursery . These Hoikuen or Day care nurseries looks after children who cannot be cared for at home in the daytime for the reason that both parents working full time, falling ill, or having a family member who needs care or is handicapped, and are based on the Child Welfare Act.

Well last Friday in commemoration of Obon festival we went again to Anjo City to visit the grave of my mother in law who passed away almost four years ago also to offer a pray in the Butsudan. The main reason going there is to have a reunion with my husband’s relatives which happens every year. We had a rich and delicious dinner that night while chatting and laughing and of course the main attraction was my baby Erika, she sing and dance and made gestures that we really enjoy watching.
Next Day it was Saturday we went to Anjo’s nearby place Kariya City where my sister in law lives. There was a live kiddie show and attractions that Erika love to watch. At night there was the famous Hanabi Taikai or firework show wherein people excited to see. Before the night comes the place is crowded with a plastic vinyl seat (my husband called it blue seat ) for a good view of the fireworks at night. My sister in law made us onigiri or riceball we ate while watching the hanabi.
Every time Erika wacth this video she always clap her hands.
Note: Erika had her mumps virus vaccine today.
We went to strawberry picking yesterday and Erika although did not like to eat strawberry sure did enjoy freely walking on wide fields of grass with clover’s flower. She was so eager to walk since there are many kids playing around her whenever I gave her a hug she always escapes from my arms and goes wherever she wants. Anyway I really did enjoy watching her.
