2013!!!


今更ながら明けましておめでとうございます。
相変わらずブログのアップデートが遅いです。今年は皆様にShare出来る実のある知識や体験を得て行けたらいいとおもいます!!
I know it’s late though, A Happy New Year, everyone!!  I am a slacker as usual. It’s already on the 9th, and I am finally greeting to everyone. I really hope that I will gain more meaningful knowledge and excellent experience that I could share with you this year.

ちなみに2013年は日本で幕開けをしました。家族みんなで風邪を引いてしまったのですが紅白を三年ぶりに見て、元旦には家族でおせちを食べ、二日には兄夫婦や義理姉のお父様も招いてザ・日本の正月を迎えられたのはアメリカナイズされつつ自分にとってはとてもいい機会でした。ロバート君がミシシッピでディプロイメントの準備に入ってカンザスで一緒に居ないので寂しいなぁと思っていたけれどそれはそれでこういう風に自由に日本に帰ってきて心置きなく両親に甘えて家族や友達、そして「日本」に力をもらって次へのステップへつなげられそうです:))
皆様にとって2013年という年がかけがえのない素晴らしい年になりますように。。

Anyway, I welcomed New Year in Japan. Me and my parents had been sick for a while, so we kept our new year time low key by watching Kohaku(紅白), ate new year dishes on the 1st and had family time with my brother, his wife and her father.  But this is our traditional new year and how much I missed it. Since I am getting a little bit Americanized (whether I want to admit or not), it was blessing to have this season with my family and friends at home. Since my husband is training for the deployment in Mississippi and I sure have been missing him though, this time gave me a chance to stay in Japan for a while and I am getting recharged.  I am sure I can make a good use of the power and strengths I receive here for the next step in my life. 

I pray that year of 2013 will be very precious and invaluable to each of you.
