First Kiss
Posted on May 17, 2004
last night as I was lying on the floor watching Frankie play with her blocks and half watching JNN (24h Japanese news channel) she turned to me and gave me a little peck on the cheek! She immediately turned to Masako and smiled. She kept giving me these cute little kisses over and over again. Too cute for words.
Today at lunch I made my usual call home to see how everything was and it seems Frankie has gone on an all out kiss-fest with her toys smooching anything within her little reach.
My personal observation is that parents kissing their children and vice versa is very uncommon here. Compared to my own childhood memories "Oh come on, you’re never too old to give your Grandma/Nana a kiss!" When Frankie was born I was amazed to see that no family in Japan wanted to give her a kiss but after witnessing me giving her 100 little pecks a day they slowly changed their ways. Now she can do all the kissing.

Boy if her auntie was there she wouldn't stop getting kisses . Too cute.!!!!!
