I should really consider changing the name of this blog to “kimonos and cherry blossoms”. It seems that is all I can post about these days.
I want to thank you for all the kind comments about Abby’s performances. I have been carrying on, haven’t I? It’s just that this is one of those times when your child really surprises you. She hasn’t been taking lessons for very long and I only was able to attend a lesson 2 weeks before her big performance. So in a matter of weeks she went from a girl who would only ever consider getting up on a stage if I was allowed to go with her to a poised red carpet veteran.
I also can’t get over how beautiful the dancing is. I didn’t know anything about it a few months ago and I find myself enchanted. If you are interested, the type of dance she does is called nihon buyo and you can find a video of the San Francisco performance here.
Have a wonderful weekend! Doing anything fun?
Post away. Who could tire of sweet girls and beautiful clothes
It’s exciting to watch them blossom, to bear witness to them becoming the person they are. I find it enchanting.
We have a Cinco de Mayo party this weekend at a friend’s fancy new house. I think I am just as excited to see the home as anything else
this is amazing. cherry blossoms and kimonos are two of my favorite things, and your little girl is gorgeous!
A beautiful array of photos. They are fantastical costumes. Post away.
