Children's Day

May 5th is Children's Day in Japan.

We celebrate by putting out our traditional kabuto hat and warrior doll, gifts from my parents when each of the kids was born. The kids also each receive a small gift from us.




Here is Gem at 11 months with his kabuto (he and I both think he looks older than that, but he is, indeed just shy of 11 months old here and Sag is a growing bun in the oven)...must be May 5th of 2001 :-)
