\u00a0My daughters range in age from teenage, to tween, to first grade. I am never more joyful than when I am with them, just having fun. Sometimes their interest vary, because they are at different stages of childhood. I like to make time for each of my daughters, to hang with them for a little while and experience the things they enjoy. The other night my teenage daughter and I created a themed supper together.<\/div>\n
\u00a0My daughter Mistaya is obsessed with Japanese pop culture. I’ve always had an interest in Japanese culture too. With me, my interest in Japanese culture stared at age six when we had a Japanese university exchange student named Misa live with our family. For Mistaya, it started when I first introduced my wee little girls to Hayao Miyazaki. She was still in preschool. I believe the first movie I got for them was Kiki’s Delivery Service<\/i><\/b>. It was fitting because later, when her youngest sister (Pippi) was learning to talk, she couldn’t pronounce Mistaya and tried to call her Misty but it came out as Kiki.\u00a0<\/div>\n
Mistaya is now studying Japanese language at school and continues her cultural studies at home through her Manga and Anime collections. I was treated to an evening immersed in Japan with Mist this week. We made homemade sushi, sipped green tea and watched 2 Hell Girl<\/b><\/i> episodes. Hell Girl<\/i> is really dark–a little dark for me. But our yam rolls were wickedly good.\u00a0<\/div>\n
