Happy Halloween









And Happy Anniversary Nana and Opah. Today we helped celebrate Nana and Opah's anniversary by going to our local mall at Toyosu and letting Miyako participate in the Halloween parade. She put her little bee hat on for about 90 seconds. We thought the parade would be outside but instead it was indoors. Kan and I walked Miyako halfway through the parade and then jumped line and took her on a train ride. They had kid size musical instruments in the train ride which she loved. After our adventure at Toyosu we quickly went home, grabbed a sandwich and headed to church. On our way home from church Miyako started singing what sounded like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." This is not unusual as she loves to sing. However, the words sounded a bit different. She said, "Kira kira hikaru." Well, we have a book that plays night time songs to her and they are written in Japanese. The one song I can read/sing pretty well is "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" which is translated as "Kira kira hikaru." Kan and I were both pretty impressed. Another song she started singing this week is "Holy, Holy, Holy." We sing it at bedtime and she will say "More holy holy." I guess she likes it and started singing it this week. I love her sweet little voice.
