Birthday Week

Our little Yuna turned 2 years old. That was a big mark for us. Even airlines recognize 2 years old as big boys/girls that they start charging them for full price. (Yes, we just paid another $900 for Yuna to fly back to the States with us this summer.) But there is more joy that she actually speaks sentences (in Japanese).

Starting on Sunday (her actual birthday was on Friday), Yuna had an amazing week.


On Sunday the 14th, a neighbor friend brought her a cake. He spelled "ユーナ(Yuna)" with strawberries. How sweet!

She also received "swim lessons" and "music lessons" for birthday presents. She had many many birthday wishes and was proud to be two years old.

And, of course, more cakes!
