Portland City United (PCU) Girls 2009 (birthyear) team takes State Cup May 1, 2021

Naomi's team won their final game in the State Cup tournament yesterday morning 3:1. With that comes the happy realization that they are on to Regional Competition in Utah in June. The only sad part is that Naomi will miss most of Jon's family's visit as she will be gone June 13 or 14 until June 20. Here are post-game photos with the medals and trophy!

We are all very proud of this girl who gives her all to this team and to the game of soccer. She's early to every practice and game, and plays her heart out with courage and full commitment no matter which position! Go Naomi!

The Latest on Leia Lately, Leia has been giving names to all of her stuffed animals, dolls, and any character in a book we come across without a name. They are very creative for the most part... Today, she named her doll from Aunt Marie and Aunt Kimie " Baby Jesus "!! I guess she remembered the name from when I told her the story of Christmas and it made an impression on her. I just had to share that with you all. I'm trying my best not to explode into laughter each time she says it. :) These days, Leia likes to run to yochien, and run home from yochien, and "race" me on the bike. She is a fast runner, and barely runs out of breath, and so someday, I expect her to visit Marie and Tim for the Boston marathon! Today, she actually ran out of breath, telling me, "There is no more air in my tummy! (Onaka ni kuuki ga nakunacchatta!)" She learned a song in yochien where they use the expression "gozansu" as a sentence ending. These days, she adds it ...

Jiji's paintings

Hi all, We had a productive day at Shiki yesterday and had the estimate for the move to the storage, where we will make the final labeling and preparation for shipment to the US. We will be back there a few more times before the move to storage on the 16th, Friday. There are a few more items I'd like for you all to look at, but since I don't have all the data collected, I'll send them in batches. Here are a few of Jiji's paintings I'm wondering if anyone is interested in. Please let me know! Thanks!
