We packed, packed and packed some more. Sean’s folks called us in the morning. Will likely be the last time they call us in Japan ☹. Keenan toddled amongst our piles stuff and us and made a game of unpacking things we had just packed. Sean tackled the kitchen and I packed our clothes and a box. Looks like we’ll defiantly be needed that 3rd box. Oh well. We heard from Sean’s successor and she’s buying pretty much the rest of our stuff so no need to worry about that anymore. Yippee!
I spent some time closely examining the tapestry Nishida-san gave me in the sunlight and I realized I could see very faint lines she had drawn to mark the pattern. That should help make things easier for me and I’m a little more excited about practicing the stitches and getting down to my first attempt. I’m am terribly worried about mucking it all up though. It’s very different from her usual work, very feminine with a green floral print on a yellow background. Gives me butterflies just thinking about it!
The evening was filled with more packing and more emotions. We discovered all kinds of good food we've been hording and never ate cause we were afraid we wouldn't be able to get it again! Now it's gonna get given away, tossed or left for Seans replacement. Oh well!
Sean made us a lovely pasta dinner and we stayed up way too late watching episodes of Lost (yes, we are addicted!).
Originally, this blog was created to chronicle the experience of starting our family in Japan. Now in Canada & expecting our second child...the journey & the adventure continues...

I'm really enjoying going through your last week with you: I;m sort of taken back to my last few days and also a bit homesick for the 'do.
love the idea of Keenan helping out, he's such a little gentlemen, obviously!
