Hello there. We have not disappeared from the earth. Just a bit busy since the last post. After Keishi's birth, God has given us two more daughters. Making a total of 4 beautiful children.
Yoshiki is 4 1/2. He is creative, kind, silly, observant, and very passionate. If he gets angry, he is very angry and expressive. But he is also very loving. He goes to preschool on a touch and go basis as we chose not to put him in a full time school.
Keishi is now 3 1/2. He is goofy, smart, good at acting, and very quick to laugh or cry. He loves Yoshiki his brother but wants to be Hitomi is little sister.
Hitomi is 2 years old. She was born September 17th, 2014. Her name is taken from Psalm 17:8 and it means "the apple of my eye". Her brothers doted on her as a baby,and tease her constantly now that she is bigger. She is so beautiful and smart but don't cross her or she can be pretty scary. ;) Hitomi loves to cuddle her "babies" and is a good little "mommy". When not being provoked by her brothers, she is quite sweet. She is also a tom boy. Walked from age 1. And can keep up very well with her big brothers.
Eimi was born May 2nd, 2016. Her name means eternal hope and is pronounced like her aunt Amy. She will be 5 months old tomorrow and is just the sweetest thing. She can roll over and sleeps through the night since about three months old. She brings much joy and calm to my heart in the craziness of raising 4 young children.
Keisuke and I are so thankful to God for the blessings that God has entrusted to us.
We have had some rough things happen in the last three years. Changing of our church here in Sapporo, learning how to discipline our children, death of my precious older brother Tom at 39yrs old. But God has been faithful trough it all. He is always with us and helps us through these hard times and encourages us with many beautiful and fun times too.
I will try to update a little more often. But no promises with my crazy life ;)
