To translate for those who do not speak Japanese:

Kobuta(baby pig)-Tanuki (badger)-Kitsune(fox)-Neko (cat)

Then in second verse, you are supposed to string together all of their animal sounds. It is also a song that plays a word game where the last sound of the first word is the first sound of the next word, and so on.

Ok, DIBS on babysitting once I am back in town.

Dibsdibsdibs.

You can find me in Seattle starting around May 22.

I mean, I could pretend you have a choice. But that would be a lie.

Dude, I can't believe how well the kid plays to an audience. I was lamenting that she'd grown out of the days of "Baby! Baby! Baby!" as she was answering your questions in perfect English. But then, right at the end, POW! She delivered.

Yuki is so awesome.
I heard "Kitsune"! I know that word! I just read Tom Robbins's Villa Incognito. It means fox, right? Right? Miss you guys. Can you come to our wedding?

panicky interlude

This is not the promised "Magical Ponies" post. Apologies. Instead, this is the "You Negligent Monster" post. Because Kiddo is in a Japanese daycare, parents are asked to remove their shoes before coming in. No problem. I have a pair of loafers that I hate that I wear on pickup days so I can get in and out more quickly. Most days while I'm putting my shoes on, Yuki will run away from me and I will make noisy protestations and she will giggle and come back. Today, however, there was the running and the noisy protestations and the giggling and a splat. I guess she tripped ("running away" involves going around a corner where I can't see her) because she was crying and pulling herself up off the floor when I got to her. "No big deal" as she likes to say (she does, really, it's friggin' adorable). She had a little red line across the bridge of her nose but there was no blood. She asked for a Band Aid and I told her we'd get her one...
