April 30, 2015 "Mr. and Mrs. Osborn"

I can’t believe it’s already the end of April. In Japan a holiday season called Golden Week has started, but of course my husband, Nori, has no plan to have days off… I’m wondering how I and my kids shall spend 5-day vacation without Nori XD!

Today’s image is Mr. Bruce Osborn and his wife. He is photographing OYAKO, which means parents-children in Japanese, for 33 years, and his OYAKO project was made into a movie “OYAKO”. A project of OYAKO photo-shooting and the movie screening in Kitakyushu have been launched recently, and they came to Kitakyushu to meet its project members. Thus Nori came across a chance to photograph this fabulous couple!

Nori occasionally told me about Mr. Osborn and his project, saying “He is really a great photographer!” and showed me movies of his OYAKO photo-shooting on youtube. How nice he could have chance to see him in Kitakyushu! I will absolutely join OYAKO Day with my family for sure!!

Time really flies!! In Japan we say "March runs away" because San-gatsu, which stands for March, sounds like Saru, which means to run away. For me, March DID ran away while taking care of my baby girl.

It started to rain yesterday and it is likely a long spring rain, which scatters the cherry blossoms. The end of March, we managed to enjoy cherry blossoms which were in full bloom! It was really beautiful, and our baby girl, Yui, was looking up at the flowers.

February 26, 2015 "Maternity photo session"

Today's image is one from a maternity photo session about a half year ago.

As this photo is half year ago, the baby is already born and he is 4 months old now smile絵What a beauty the pregnant woman's figure!

We've also did a photoshoot with their baby boy last month, so I'd like to post some of the pics late on.

半年前にこのお腹ですので…もう赤ちゃんは生まれてすくすくと元気に育っています。ウチの子と同い年で、もうすぐ5ヶ月になるHinariくん！先日、百日記念の撮影もさせていただきましたので、また後日、ご紹介しますね(*^^*)

露出度が高い写真なのでupを迷ってしまいましたが、どの写真をupしてもOKというお言葉をいただいていますので、思い切って！妊婦さんの曲線は、本当に美しいです。

February 21, 2015 "Wanderer"

February is passing by so fast. And the sound of spring's footsteps is coming closer.

Today's image may be the one that arouse some stories in peoples mind. Me and Nori hit upon the same keyword when thinking of title of this image:

"Wanderer"

2月は逃げると言いますが、本当に逃げるように過ぎていきます。でも、春が急ぎ足で来てくれるような、ワクワクする気持ちもありますね。

今日の写真。典人の個人フィードをご覧になった方も多いかもしれませんが、見る人それぞれの胸にストーリーを掻き立てるような雰囲気ですね。何か気の利いたタイトルは無いかと考えていて、私も典人も同じようなキーワードを探していました。

Wanderer, 彷徨い人

生後間もない娘と、突然お兄ちゃんになって不安定な息子のことで、バタバタしていて、こちらの投稿が滞りがちでスミマセン。ボチボチUPします(*^^*)

Hi there, how's you been? It's been a while since last update. Today's pic is my first hug to my baby girl on January 6th around 4pm. Yea, I gave birth to my daughter on that day.

My god, I cry every time I see this picture and my husband Nori's words that he posted on that day in his FB wall and his blog. I love these beautiful words.

Here's his words:

The world is wonderful. Sometime it seems worthless, however, it's a wonderful world.
Rainfall in the morning turned into the sunshine, and the sky showed its beautiful colors

in the very evening when my daughter was born.

Thank you, my wife and my daughter.
This is not very special phrase.
But I simply felt so.
It is very simple, I thank you.

寒い毎日ですが、みなさんお元気ですか？お久しぶりの投稿です。
本日の写真はご覧のとおり、娘が生まれた直後、はじめてこの手に抱いたときのものです。はい、1月6日、無事に娘を出産しました。

長い陣痛を乗り越えた後、しばらく産声を上げず危険だった状況をくぐり抜け、やっと会えた娘を抱いたときの感動は、もちろん忘れられないものなのですが、この写真を見せられたとき、その感動が何度も何度も再生可能なものとして蘇ったような気がしました。

その当日に夫・典人がupした言葉。再度ここにシェアします。私の宝物です。

- - - - - -
こんな世の中だけど、世界はやっぱり素晴らしい、そう思った。
朝の雨模様はいつしか晴れの様相を見せ、娘の産まれたその日の夕空は綺麗な色で染まっていた。
妻にありがとう、そして娘にありがとう。
ありきたりな言葉だけれど、単純にそう思えた。単純にそうなのだろう。
