Feeling natsukashii

Some friends sent an old video from our Korea days, which prompted me to search for ones even further back in my Asian past. Here's a Japanese song from the 80s that, if you've known me for long and have seen me around a microphone, you've probably heard.



I don't have an Akiko Kobayashi wig in my basement collection yet, but I will be on the lookout...

Gimme five

Koby turned five last week! We had an ENORMOUS Buzz Lightyear birthday cake, most of which I had to freeze, because I didn't know that a "half-sheet" size cake would feed 40 people.



I took cupcakes to his "big-boy" school the next day. I spent an hour with 14 four- and five-year-olds. I have no idea how Mrs. Lydon does it. God bless 'er.



Koby loved ALL the toys he got. But today he decided to wear his new ski goggles & helmet so he could be a robot, and help Dennis clean up the yard. We'll see if that works when he's eight.
